Chariots to which four horses are bound are racing by. There are about 15 or 20 such chariots. A chariot that has got four silvery white horses is advancing and in it sits our hero. During the race two chariots got into accident before our hero’s chariot. If you have guessed which film I am talking about then you might have guessed what follows. Yes, hero’s chariot does a fantastic show by jumping over.
You guessed it.. I am talking of ‘Benhur’. Charlton Huston became Benhur in the movie. The movie was a great success and had won 11 Oscars.
Many of us have watched this film not once but many times. But still I am sure you haven’t noticed this. When the chariot did its fantastic show Charlton Huston was not there in the chariot! Instead Yakima Kanot’s (Action Director of the film) son, Jo Kanot, did this act.
In this jump, Jo Kanot fell off the chariot and had a very serious injury. But viewers being unaware (of course they shouldn’t be aware!) of this praised Benhur.
