The fact she looks so good and always has an interesting story to tell almost makes me feel like she was literally made for him so he'd never want to leave.
We might be actually looking at the First "One" that Morpheus spoke of in he first Matrix, the ever elusive man that was born in the Matrix and "could change it the way he saw fit." The "One who freed the first one us." -- To this day, it is the burning question that all diehard Matrix fans contemplate on, fans think about....the story of the First One. Perhaps one day we will know, perhaps we will never know. The story could be a movie all amongst itself, more epic than than first The Matrix.
Who says he didn't? Remember he's a competitive runner. Maybe dropping to his knees at the end wasn't him collapsing, but rather him getting into stance to sprint.
the thing that hits the most with the fenomenal soundtrack and the symbolism it's his eyes at 1:28 while he stoods up, it doesn't show one single hint of doubt, the almost blind faith he had on himself and the sheer might this guy had to just reject the matrix and the control it had over him was so powerful to the point of breaking the programs that simulated the laws of physics, so much to the point that he could levitate for split seconds. That for me is one of the most powerful things, these kinda of humans who go agains't the matrix using their own willpower it's as impressive, if not more, than the One.
@@drx737 no. but he came close. this was highlighted in the first film...."potentials"....people who MIGHT have become the One, who were the most likely candidates to...if the resistance had gotten to him, who knows? but he was too famous and high profile..so the System wound up eating him up. the thing with Neo was that events had to hit a certain threshhold..and this guy didn't QUITE make it. and second place is just First Loser. its a tragedy.
Almost, but not quite. The One is capable of not just breaking the rules, but rewriting them. Whereas this man, he'll only be able to break them. Where Neo could stop bullets mid air, he's "merely" bullet proof. Where Neo could fly, he can "merely" be one of the fastest things alive. He's not the One. But he is still a sign of freedom and hope.
@@wormwoodbecomedelphinus4131 perhaps this was the beginning of his story as the One. He's already defied the system twice, who's to say he won't do it more?
It's touching something deep inside of you that you didn't quite understand as a child that you fully grasp now. We all know damn well what I'm talking about, too. What it means to TRULY be free. From everything. I cry, too.
The part in this scene that got me the most was actually the nurse’ gossiping, because it’s most relatable to real life, to me the gossiping represent the shallowness and everyday stuff that constantly distracting us from our higher consciousness, just like how the machines sucked human lives as their batteries in the story, and the victims didn’t even realize it. The athlete almost reached awakening but got set back by the agents, it’s almost like sometime we had our enlightened moment but later got distracted and never remembered to pick it back up. Here goes deeper, distractions don’t only mean gossiping, gaming or watching porn but also even something we consider most important and legit such as school, work, marriage and kids.. philosophically speaking those are all illusions, only thought itself is real, I think therefore I am. People in Matrix woke up and found themselves in Zion but who to guarantee Zion is real? I’m not saying we should all abandon our families, jobs and become a monk or something, I think we could keep them, just need to have our awareness open for higher consciousness and put that as priority.
This is so impactful. What I don’t understand is why he didn’t end up breaking free. He had already escaped the matrix through nothing but sheer willpower. Although his memory of escaping was expunged, his will for freedom still overcomes the matrix’s programs to the point that he broke gravity. So why didn’t he end up escaping when he was that close?
I see that only because he could wake up from the matrix is a great matter. Because the machines tried to build a perfect simulation, and just the fact that there is something wrong with it like a glitch of some sort, that is the embodiment of the one. Which is more emphasized when we learn that there were past versions of the matrix, all trying to be perfect but inevitably failing at it. Which is really interesting because we as humans know that no such thing is perfect, but for the machines it's different, because even though they can't imagine, they calculate to develop more and more. It's all really facinating that I really want to see more of it, just to know where exactly was the writer going.
He’s still learning how to fly, just like how babies need multiple attempts to walk properly to evolve from crawling. He’s learning how to go from running (crawling) to flying (walking), the same way a child would. Some people assume he failed to escape because he “fell” when he was about to fly, but to me, it looks more like he’s using his muscle memory from his training on how to run efficiently to get into a running stance, (which coincidentally looks like falling) like the one he used to win the race. He’s taking advantage of his muscle memory on how to run, and using it as a stepping stone on how to fly. That’s why he gets into that running stance at the end. Some people like Neo can do it on the first try, like how some people can play the violin really well on the first try. For others however, like this guy who might specialise in other areas, he needs a few more attempts to get to that level of skill. This isn’t an end or even a “failure” for him. It’s a beginning. A learning curve.
Quite possibly the most powerful story in the entire collection. A name that would live forever. Fame beyond belief. What more could a Man want? Freedom. A slave is still a slave. Even if the chains are gold and the cage is gilded.
As a Martial Artist that trained everyday; I relate to this scene 110% when I had knee surgery and wanted to continue to train even with a metal cast on.
@d R privileged cushy 1st worlder that hasnt worked a day in his life looks down on the less fortunate and people wanting to better themselves because of a dumbass stereotype 🤓🤓🤓😂
@@xcx3572 I think it’s about distraction. The nurses gossiping represented distractions against your higher consciousness, from there you’re no longer focusing on finding the truth, you compromised and settled with everyday stuff, just like everybody else, just like how the Matrix want you to be.
6 versions of the matrix, meaning 6 cases of the one. If the machines had enslaved all humanity, who freed the first humans. He may be the first to get free, but we'll never know since it's not specified which version of the matrix we're watching.
Since the Animatrix was more of a pseudo-historical account of different events throughout the Matrix universe, it's possible he was the One in one of the versions of the Matrix.
Some shorts like this makes u see the matrix as something else than only lies. The movies treated the matrix like only chains, but he uses his matrix lifes as a catalyzer for the awakening the same way in the real real life we use our dreams to grow, which turns the matryx into something short of real
@@quantumstereotv6319 The movie says they need humans as bio reactors (which is kinda dumb since you could just breed some kind of bacteria to do that).
You can break a man's body but you can not break his soul. He may have collapsed at the end, but for that brief second he was able to walk through the sheer force of his will. For that brief second, he was free. And he remembered what he saw when he left the matrix.
What i find interesting is that he knew nothing of the Matrix before his world record, nor did he essentially want to wake up.. After he did though... despite being shocked and memory wiped... he still wants to be free. Human nature is a fascinating thing.
What people didnt notice here is the nurse, everyone keeps on talking about how powerful this scene is because of Dan but did not make a comparison how a person can be so strapped into the matrix like the nurse was with her continuous chatting about things that didnt happen.
There were SOOOO much more pontential for amazing stories taking place in the Matrix. I always wish there were people with specific powers, like ok this guy isn't as powerful as Neo but he can make his hands cut through anything or this other guy that can run faster than cars, this one can walk through stuff etc
@d R Oh no, yeah you're so right. This movie filled with explosions, shooting, acrobatics, martial arts and pioneering-oscar-winning special effects action movie has NOTHING to do with looking cool. Everyone is wearing the black coats jackets and sunglasses because that's just how post-modern philosophers roll. The actors had to train ground breaking choreography for 6 months because watching a flying double roundhouse on screen really makes the masses stop everything and question senses-based notions of reality.
The feeling of tenseness that the slow motion screw flying across the screen gives kinda remind me of the scene in Megalobox when the rain slows to a halt
I'm pissed and happy that I found Animatrix at this age. I wouldn't have appreciated it back in the early 2000's when I was still a teenager. Yes, I loved the first Matrix movie, but I remember when I saw this in blockbuster, I thought it looked so stupid and cheesy. 20 years later. This is a masterpiece. It stands the tests of time. I have watched Animatrix dozens of times and I've even put some of my friends on it as well, and they are in love with is. This is why I no longer judge books by their cover.
Re-watching these old clips and I just keep thinking I want more of this. The machine war random stories from inside the matrix so much better than the trashfire we got that was ressurections
This is like when there is a minute left in class youre doing a group project and the teacher wants you to stay in your seat but you don't listen. 1:04
Dan may be stuck in the matrix but at least he accomplished his goal of breaking the record. Sadly his pretty nurse won't stop talking about her aunts cherry pie. If by chance they end up together he might as well get a slice of pie.
Dan did all this... by SHEER... FUCKING... WILL. Neo was The One that finally put an end to the war, but Dan achieved something here that even Neo took time to do and he had instruction, Morpheus was a hell of a teacher. Damn shame he couldn't break through the last hurdle, but his memory lives own.
I’m convinced this guy is one previous anomalies from a previous matrix. The architect said the anomaly creates fluctuations in even the most simplistic equations.
1:16 his power level got so high he broke the metal bolts on his leg restraining mechanism! -muscles regain "free" strength from Olympic WORLD RECORD (so much for "he'll never walk again..." 1:20 starts walking...)
This explains what happen when you died the fallen angels erase your memories and try to reinsert your spirit back into this reality. Into another flesh host.
Awesome scene. I would have liked to seen more of the expanded Matrix universe. After Animatrix I had hope for a while that there would be more Matrix projects. But then nothing for 20 years and then a horrendous Matrix 4 movie that I wish was never made.

Awesome scene. I would have liked to seen more of the expanded Matrix universe. After Animatrix I had hope for a while that there would be more Matrix projects. But then nothing for 20 years and then a horrendous Matrix 4 movie that I wish was never made.
the best
For some reason, this video really resonates with me in 2024.
I really just want some of that cherry pie
This was incredible
Every time they try to hold us back
Beautiful jusr wow
Cool for the video, thank you.
Imagine being a nurse so chatty a dude in a wheelchair get up and try to run from you.
I like how the agents look like theyre wearing like 5 jackets
They look like they are a mixture of a therapist and straight jacket. Fitting given they want people to accept being controlled and the matrix.
best animatrix story of all
The only limits there are the ones he believes in
Damn woman, stop to take a breath!
