- Get Up To Speed on Ken Miles, the legendary racecar driver featured in the movie, #FordvFerrari On Blu-ray & Digital. Get it now: bit.ly/FordVFer
Ken Miles (played by Christian Bale in the film) was the reason Carroll Shelby (Matt Damon) found success on the track with his Shelby Cobras, and why Ford beat Ferrari with their GT40’s in the 1966 24 hours of Le Mans. From driving tanks on the beaches of Normandy, to running his own mechanic shop, Miles was known to do things his way. He built his own winning MG's and raced Porsche 550 Spyder's to podium after podium. His skills led him to becoming Carroll Shelby's Chief Test Driver and he was just getting started. So how did Miles go from being a high school drop out to almost being the first driver to ever win the Triple Crown? Join James as he gets you Up to Speed on Mr. Sidebite himself. This is everything you need to know on Ken Miles!

One of the most underrated drivers who is finally getting some face time
To true
Grossly underrated, and totally shafted by FORD. Man was a genius.
Well i cried.. a bit
the bloody door won't close !!
@Ed Berger - The ACO governing body is the proper organization to blame for this fiasco, not Ford!
I love how emotional James gets. You can tell the man is passionate about his work, vehicles, and the history of it all.
He is is extremely passionate about cars and racing, I love that he lets his emotions pour out when he talks, he is a genuine person. :)
I cried with the man. I'm at work right now, on lunch and the waterworks came down.
@@DreDaRealest #metoo good thing im alone right now.
@@DreDaRealest why you cut so many onions for your lunch?
Very passionate about sponsorships and money of course.
"did you see the movie?"
probably the best 2 hours and 30 minutes i ever had in my life
That movie was something else.
not just 2 hours 30 mins for me it was 10 hours i’ve watched it 4 times already
Rush is a better movie imo.
@@Boris_V "Rush"? Please elaborate, I haven't heard of it.
literally. idk if anything will ever top it. even outside of "car movies" bc it clearly takes the cake in that category for the rest of time
After Ken Miles’s death, changes were made to the aerodynamics of the J car to reduce rear-end lift, and a steel roll cage was added. These changes saved Mario Andretti’s life in the 1967 Le Mans. Ken Miles’s legacy lives on through Mario’s legendary career.
Steel roll cage? Hahaha...was it pig iron? haha
Even in death, Ken Miles improved the GT40. What a legend
@@DigitalDNA what are you talking about?...

He earned that triple crown, he was a badass dude with balls of British steel
yeah he earned triple crown no doubt may be whatever rules say all know he was fastest man behind wheels❤️❤️❤️❤️
Appalling as he was laps ahead of the other drivers was asked to slow down for the photo.

Imagine what Shelbey and Miles could have done together had he lived. Surly one of the greatest Duos motor sport has ever seen.
The greatest
Greatest duo of Americans since Samuel Colt and John Moses Browning.
Let us not think about what could have been but think about what was. Rest in peace Ken Miles🕊️
No one would have done justice to this role like Bale. He makes you bond with the character. I cried when he died..
FORD should release a Ken Miles edition for GT or Mustang atleast.. just to give tribute to him. Ford won because of Ken Miles... please ford do it
I support that!!!!!
Mustang is a housewife car - ken miles
...brilliant thought - wonder if ford has the balls to do it
This is legitimately a GREAT idea.

“There’s a point at 7,000 RPMs where everything fades.
The machine becomes weightless. It disappears.
All that’s left, a body moving through space, and time.
At 7,000 RPM, that’s where you meet it. That’s where it waits for you.” ❣️
Dont know where this is from, it may be from the movie, or a quite by someone related to this story, or where ever its from. But as a automobile enthusiast. Alleged street racer, and as a person who has been in absolute unconditional love with anything with wheels and a motor, this is deeply touching and beautiful in its simplistic description of how all people who love every aspect if cars, driving and euphoric feeling of speed, and danger of high speed driving and the noises and smells that come with it as well.
*host note* I'm stoned and emotional lol
@@dylansnellgrove907 It's from movie Ford v Ferrari. I know how you feel. ❣️
That was such an awesome quote.

i feel you man. shit made my eyes water
“And it asks you one very important question, who are you” RIP to a legend among racers, there will never ever be another driver like ken miles
Ken Miles is a legend. His legacy will continue in our hearts. Rest in peace legendary racer.
Have you ever heard of Bob McLean or Walt Hansgen? No? They both died while driving GT40s less than five months before Miles. No tears for them...
No offense, but the MOVIE made Miles a legend. In reality, his death was treated just like the other two GT40 deaths.
Shut up
The emotion that Pumphry shows from 19:50 on is some of the most passionate and heartbreaking stuff I've seen on youtube. He's different from most presenters and demonstrates deeper care for the subjects he's covering on a personal level. Thanks Donut for this type of motorsport coverage as well as your funner stuff, you are truly one of the best car and automotive channels on youtube today
Women would cry while watching Korean romantic movies. Men would cry while listening the catastrophic story of Ken Miles.

Agreed😭
@@cnocee i could still hear the death sound effect to this day
Eugh
Because we undertand the reason and know how hard betrayal could be

Have two things:-
1. Ken Miles is legendary.
2. Fact that James Pumphrey gets emotional every-time, while telling facts about car, Tells how much dude really loves cars and everyone around it.
Video is on history, more specifically, a person and their story which matters more. Cars are machines.

Ken Miles was an amateur driver compared to the 3-New Zealanders in the other two cars.
He drove a few races in the US.
Denny Hulme drove in F1, LeMans, CanAm and Indy. Won Races all over the World.
Ken Miles was not qualified to carry Denny's lunch box!
Two Ken's have brought me to tears, still processing Ken Block.
@@hellzturkey Yeah Ken Block was pretty sad Kris. But it's a dangerous game they play my man!

I’m not crying , that’s just the vtec g forces pulling tears out my eyes 😢

This motor must be running on onions
Vtak kicked in too much
So no force at all 😂😂😂

I literally cried when Shelby visited his home after Ken's death god knows how i stopped my tears 😢
Me too...
It was so hard to not cry
with the same tool he had frame years ago wich ken trow it at him
That scene :- czcams.com/video/hiMK4Ssi-s4/video.html
Respect!
The ending of this video is very touching. Ken Miles meant a lot to the Ford GT40 program. RIP Ken.🏆
yea ford lloves taking wgat people start as a team and makin it theirs. pfft, ford.
Ken Miles, was a good driver, a good development driver. He gave good feedback, and could translate the cars, behavior to the engineers. There were a lot of talented people who worked on that program, and few received the recognition they probably deserved. The only real promoter was Shelby, and consequently, he received the lions share of the credit. Holman Moody, their staff, Don Frey, Mose Nowland just a couple of people of the many at Ford who proudly worked on the car. Racing is a tough way to live, and it was very dangerous back in the 60s. Ford engineering thought very highly of Ken Miles, and his death, really deeply hurt, many.
@@Kdog307 How do you figure? The engine was Ford from the beginning with the Lola Mk6 before the merger. In 1963 work began on Ford GT40 that was loosely based on the Lola GT. Once Shelby got involved it became a winner.
I cried when I watched the movie, it was a strangely sad feeling that I haven't felt before, probably a mix of Regret, sadness and respect all at the same time.
This episode should be in the Bonus Features of the movie
Yes!
Dude! Your so right
No way, you lil dorks that knew nothing about ken but now jumping on the bandwagon? Thats more of an insult than an honor

When I was a kid, I asked my dad who the best race car driver was during a LeMans race in the late 90’s. He told me there isn’t one. And i asked, why? He said; its Ken Miles, but he’s not racing here, he’s racing in heaven.
😭 I’m not crying you’re crying

Who is chopping the unions here 😭

didnt expect to be taken on an emotional rollercoaster when i clicked on this video
Nor did I sir. Nor did i.
the emotion at the end when James was speaking about Ken's final drive was just heart breaking. I understood the upset watching the film, but to see an American get so upset about the death of an English driver really hit home. We're all car guys and girls no matter we're from. A great video as always James. RIP Ken, keep yourself racing above xx

9pm (MEZ)
Mattertot man the same but at 3:29 pm
Someone was chopping onions, in a place where I live on my own... It was onions I tells ya... Sniff!
Oh look, its raining.
I think that the fact that Ford stealing their win is more saddening and heartbreaking than his death. If he did win the triple crown, he would've got fired by ford, but after that performance surely people like Ferrari and Porsche would have hired him, and therefore he most likely wouldn't have died
Agreed
ken is a better man than i. i woulda took that win. no way in hell would i BUST MY ASS getting from last place to first, being first in the last 2 big races and be told i have to slow down for 2nd and 3rd. shoulda kept up. and theres always next year. shame on forrd for even asking. it shows how little respect he had for his drivers and how they feel.
He's representing not only himself but his whole team and Shelby as well and they were good to him so maybe that's why he let it pass.
@@haroldcruz8550 FUCKKKKK FORDDDDDD
Him beating Ferrari is more saddening than his death? Are you serious? Man f*** you.
You told a heartfelt story - and brought the true legend of Ken Miles alive in this video. Well done.
“I wish my Daddy were alive to see this”
Such a good movie.
But probably that thing actually never happened in real history
The Tesla Was not in Launch mode, probably not but a great scene nonetheless.
Along with Rush, the best car movie of the last decade.
My daddy left me
Getting emotional retelling a tragedy 54 years after the fact. That's true love for the sport & the sportsman.
Big factss
In my book, he IS the first triple crown winner

Ken Miles was a class act. The most legendary driver there will ever be.
Ken is my hero. His unrelenting determination and unmatched connection to whatever machine he was driving inspired me to race and build cars. I start my first season of racing my home built car, nicknamed the Carbon 3 by my little brother, next year. and its all thanks to Ken Miles and his legacy.
How the hell isn't there a Ford named after Ken I mean his last name IS MILES!
Probably sounds stupid but if they did, I'd call it the GTM
And his initials are KM. I mean... come on!
@@jimsy5530 🤯Very good point
Jimsy a newer ford gt called the km edition would be a cool way to pay homage to him
synretro nah. Miles wouldn’t approve of his name being on something with a TT v6
When James gets emotional, shit be making me wanna cry with him.
I've recently had a resurgence of interest for cars after so many years thanks to channels like Donut Media and Chris Fix. Watching this video after having seen Ford V Ferrari makes me greatly appreciate Ken Miles even more, he was the true badass and king if the grease monkeys, what Caroll Shelby said was true, we will never have anyone like him, Ken Miles was the ultimate, such a cool dude.
Thanks for this James, I got a little teary eyed as well on the last part.
It's such a shame that Ken miles was so underrated by many and hated by many. He was a legend without him ford and shelby would never have stood a chance. Ken Miles is and remains a legend He has touched so many people's hearts.
You really see at 19:50 into the video how James is moved to tears R.I.P Ken Miles❤❤❤
Cries after movie ends
Cries again when James started teary eyed
wonders why I never heard of this legend before
wonders why Ford never release any Ken Miles special
@@05videos6 LMAO, I have a mustang and this is definitely true
If you watched the movie... FORD didn't give two 💩s about Miles. Miles help put Ford on the map. To much politics but Miles is my type of guy👍🏽.
They did and it killed him
I love how emotional James gets with these stories. Reminds me of how he did the same thing when he talked about Lemans the first time with the video about Caroll Shelby.
Keep on bein' awesome, Pumps.
he only cries when in involves ford, every american loves ford,
He gets passionate about cars and the people behind them. One of the reasons I love donut so much. They are car people.
JazzNazz It’s a national pride, I love ford with all my heart, if someone told me to choose between any Ferrari or Aston Martin and a 1969 Mustang I’d choose the mustang every time.
It's one of the great things about him. Authenticity, humanity.
That movie made my eyes sweat, too.
many racing legends make us cry through their life stories, those who deserve respect will always be remembered as legends
Ken Milles, Ken Block, Trickle and Ayrton Senna.
Nobody can can tell this story with the raw emotion like you can my friend 😢Ken was one of the greatest drivers of all time and everyone that loves cars needs to hear about the great Ken miles r.i.p Ken
When I watched this movie, besides how the story was great, I was convinced that the camera angles and this type of movie were gone forever and replaced with superheroes and special effects. When I watched it I gained my hope again :)
It's movie of the year for me. I feel like it's our era's version of the film Grand Prix.
I thought these kind of films had been replaced by endless bloody remakes of previous films, and making them all just a little bit worse...

James, one of the most genuine and open people, he doesn't hide his emotions, that's why I would totally cry with him and give him a hug ❤️
Such a inspirational biography of a man who was cut short of life in a tragedy that paved the way for the future generations
I started the movie on carnival cruise a few years ago and wasn’t able to finish it. Years later after finding searching for the movie o finally finished and it was definitely worth the watch.
The fact that James gets emotional when he does some of these videos, shows how PASSIONATE he is about his job and the history of the motorsport world
I was emotional with you man.... My dad met Ken, through Lloyd Ruby back in the early 60's as a young teen, I've seen test reels Ken driving and just how much of an engineering genius Ken Miles was.... We will never have another Ken Miles, that's what my dad always says, even to this day, I watched Ford v Ferrari him, I've honestly never seen my dad so emotional about a movie in my 37 years of life... My dad told me he cried when he heard the news of Ken dying, and he shed a tear when Shelby died, he was also at Lloyd Ruby's funeral in 2009, I would've gone but I was in Iraq at the time..... The race world, even as big as it is, is a very close net group of friends and family no matter which part of racing.... Thanks for this one James
Thank you for your service and Ken will never be forgoten

My partner came with me to the local cinema to watch the film. She was most definitely not a motor racing fan, but loved the movie. She is now a big fan of Ken, as most of us are.
'You told the story of Ken in a compelling and touching manner. Thankyou.
i shed a few tears no lie, the way you explained everything was so real
The movie will make you shed some too. Outstanding movie

I cried to
You know that James puts his entire heart and soul and effort into an episode when he starts to legitimately cry at the end of it.
Well done James, and well done Ken Miles.
Watching James get choked up is a beautiful thing. Keep doin you James
Your passion made me cry too. How can't you appreciate this Ken Miles

Never thought I’ll get a teary eye watching a video about cars. Rest in speed Ken Miles. What a man. What a man he is.
I think this video is vital because it add more details to Ken Miles life than the film Ford vs Ferrari alone. I just can't believe how much of a pheonamena this man, this driver was, thanks to you.
Y’all better like this video, my man’s cried his heart out
"If this were a beauty pageant, we just lost" - Ken Miles
"Looks aren't everything" - Carrol Shelby

Its way too good but not iconic though
Ken Miles might be gone, but never forgotten. Long live the legend.

Love you James. I know this is an old video but your willingness to be vulnerable is inspiring. Keep being you brother.
I so appreciate your emotion in this video. It really was fitting and drew tears to my eyes.
When James said on August 17, 1966 everybody started tearing up
James, I want to tell you, “I love you.” No gimmicks there. You are a little older than my son but you really remind me of him...funny, quick witted, and animated when appropriate, yet understanding, deep, and sympathetic to the times, situations and personalities of others. He has a warm beautiful humanity and understands he is being a real man whether he is welding a roll cage into a friend’s dirt track car or hugging that friend and crying because his friend’s family pet passed away. I’m sure all your regular viewers will get it...you remind me of my son -> I am the proudest father on the planet. Stay you young man.
PS-be an example to your son and one day, just as I am regarding MY son, you will be super proud of Nolan too! Ha ha!

At this point ford should pay homage to ken miles by producing ford gt miles edition
With his GT40 livery on all of them?
@@codemy666 well, the GT40 livery is actually a sponsorship livery of the Gulf oil company, so it might not be possible unless they do a partnership together.
Alternative would be having the car have that light blue color with a hint of orange around the car, but not exactly like the Gulf livery

R.I.P. Kenneth Miles “the most underrated driver ever.” Just sad to see that news headline. ‘Ken Miles is dead’ So sad...
@Metal Morphine At least he got to see him race. One last time.
Shelby hands over Ken's wrench after Ken's win: frame this!
Later Shelby returns it to Ken's son.
Its one of the most touching scenes!!
"He was your friend wasn't he?"
"Yeah. He was."
😥😢😭
Here is were mens cry
Even to his last days, Shelby was heartbroken over the loss of his friend. I got to see one of Ken's Cobras when the Museum first opened and you could feel his influence and his pride in that car, and Shelby had a tear in his eye and a smile on his face when he touched it. Gave it a gentle pat, and turned away. I was a thirteen year old kid when I saw that, and I will never forget it.
Was it a 10mm?
Greimer it was a wrench, not a socket!
The amount of passion James has it's intoxicating, you can't help but shed some tears with him, I love you James and everyone at Donut, thank you for the amazing work that you guys do day in and out!
Rest in speed Ken Miles, Greatest of All Time.
I watched the movie and then came here. Ken miles was badass and will remain badass in our hearts ❤🥺
I can't describe him...uff this video made me cry 😞
It broke my heart in the film when they didn’t award him first place 😭
True story
pretty sure they did
@@vyve3165 they didn't real fans of Lemans did but the official rules state he came in second
The first place winner can’t be pleased either. Mclaren won I believe. He knows better too. Marketing fail. Stuffed shirt fail.
Mclarens car was put on rubbish tyres to slow him down. After 3 pitstops more in the first 6 hours than miles car (to change tyres) Mclaren jumped up and down till he was given the same tyres as miles. Mclaren then raced his way back to be on the same lap as Miles at the end, At daytona Mclaren was ment to win but Miles ignored team orders and took the win. So, Bruce won at le Mon. No questions asked.
"Mow powah baebah!!!!!!"
"Where have you been???"
I died 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂 He's back!!
Great job brother,bringing a legend that is truly loved back to life!Well done ,and some Ken power to you baby!!!!!!!!
Nothing beats going out doing something you love. Rest in peace forever Ken. The world today will never know how truly great you were.
The times I've cried past to present.
1. The ending of the movie Heat. 1996.
2. My dog, Costello, passing. Miss you buddy. 2017
3. Eddie Van Halen passing. Yesterday.
4. Today watching this wookie break down.
I really wish my list was that short
Knowing what happened with Ken Miles broke me as well. Then discovering the very man who I looked up to for guitar, not for the drugs or smoking, but for the pure talent Eddie Van Halen had shown the world...I cried so much
Bro I’m right with you on heat
Bro its okay to cry
Yesterday ive watched this Ken Miles Video after seeing Ford vs Ferrari.
Today ive watched Heat because ive Read your Comment.
Both great movies
Who else cried when James cried saying miles died
The Gaming person I had no idea how Ken Mile’s life ended, and when I saw this movie yesterday for the first time, I teared up for the first time. Movies never do this to me, and I’m not even a huge car fan.
Someone started cutting onions near me when the scene of the 3 GTs are crossing the finish line
GF watched it, GF cried. Ken Miles story is truly transcendent and can touch anyone.
Me. Still have tears in my eyes.
The Gaming person
I fucking bawled my eyes out
Man this video gives me tears and goosebumps every time. Ken Miles was a legend!
Every time you cry . you make me cry . I think thats why I like you , Thanks for not being afraid of showing emotions that matter
FBI agent: no worries bro, I'm crying too...
Your tears were true honest emotion. You moved me to tears when you told the tragic ending 😢
Dude this was so emotional, i actually cried with ya, excellent content as ever.
This is one of the reasons I watch donut. Their joy and passion for te cars and what they do comes across as genuine. When someone passes, as Ken Miles did, the grief for the death of a man that James didn't even know is genuine.
Most CZcamsrs that I watch, feel that they've earned their success for the hard work they've put in. With Donut Media, they've earned it on passion alone.
