I start sobbing every time. Every. Single. Time.

Then suddenly Merry felt it at last, beyond doubt: a change. Wind was in his face! Light was glimmering. Far, far away, in the South the clouds could be dimly seen as remote grey shapes, rolling up, drifting: morning lay beyond them. But at that same moment there was a flash, as if lightning had sprung from the earth beneath the City. For a searing second it stood dazzling far off in black and white, its topmost tower like a glittering needle; and then as the darkness closed again there came rolling over the fields a great boom. At that sound the bent shape of the king sprang suddenly erect. Tall and proud he seemed again; and rising in his his stirrups he cried in a loud voice, more clear than any there had ever heard a mortal man achieve before: Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Fell deeds awake: fire and slaughter! Spear shall be shaken, shield be splintered, A sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor! With that he seized a great horn from Guthláf his banner-bearer, and he blew such a blast upon it that it burst asunder. And straightaway all the horns in the host were lifted up in music, and the blowing of the horns of Rohan in that hour was like a storm upon the plain and a thunder in the mountains. Ride now, ride now! Ride to Gondor! Suddenly the king cried to Snowmane and the horse sprang away. Behind him his banner blew in the wind, white horse upon a field of green, but he outpaced it. After him thundered the knights of his house, but he was ever before them. Éomer rode there, the white horsetail on his helm floating in this speed, and the front of the first éored roared like a breaker foaming to the shore, but Théoden could not be overtaken. Fey he seemed, or the battle-fury of his fathers ran like new fire in his veins, and he was borne up on Snowmane like a god of old, even as Oromë the Great in the battle of the Valar when the world was young. His golden shield was uncovered, and lo! it shone like an image of the Sun, and the grass flamed into green about the white feet of his steed. For morning came, morning and a wind from the sea; and darkness was removed, and the host of Mordor wailed, and terror took them, and they fled, and died, and the hoofs of wrath rode over them. And then all the host of Rohan burst into song, and they sang as they slew, for the joy of battle was on them, and the sound of their singing that was fair and terrible came even to the City.

Goosebumps, just goosebumps, especially when the audience participates

Got me crying in the office on my lunch break! These movies mean so much to me, and the Ride of the Rohirrim is so moving. To see a live performance combined with the visuals like this would be a dream come true. And personally I think it's nice for the musicians to get the "rock star" reception for a change. I'm sure if some of them don't like that sort of atmosphere, then an understudy would happily step in for these types of shows.

This scene will always give me goosebumps! To quote King Theoden ‘Hail the Victorious Death’! RIP Bernard Hill ❤

I can´t avoid crying every time I watch this scene and hear this music. Brilliant.

Literal goosebumps! Man... humans have come so far... A group listens to another and makes a movie, another group records, broadcasts it using efforts of a group that made it possible to record and replay and another group plays music tuned to the first group while yet another group of humans follows along listening and feeling and clapping and cheering..... just...wow....

Each of the 3 films are all so amazing, each film feeling significantly better than the last and yetz at the same time, going back and watching it all again, it still has that same feeling of being better than the last time. This trilogy will NEVER get old to me. I watch the extended at least 3 times a year and i never regret any second spent watching it

How does it cause one to have so many goosebumps

What an experience this must have been. The moment everyone starts yelling death is so beautiful.

There's been many a time when on a live performance of a classical concert listening and seeing the most exquisite performances from all the musicians I could barely hold my composure - this one is epicness and emotion on another whole level with all the audience along for it. I also truly respect the amount of coordination and right timing you need across all people involved to bring this to reality - a feat of human creation and capacity.
