Mad Max: Fury Road Quotes

Context

This line is spoken by various War Boys, most memorably by Nux, played by Nicholas Hoult, in the film Mad Max: Fury Road, directed by George Miller (2015).

War Boys are all about serving their leader, Immortan Joe, who is setting himself up as a mythological god, promising that their reward for dying in battle is to live in Valhalla (a sort of paradise). The world has gone to crap, and Joe is raising fearless War Boys so he can control everything around him.

The first time a War Boy says this phrase in the film, he's been fatally tagged with some arrows and is about to go down, but he sprays his mouth with some sweet silver stuff (basically making himself into a human explosive), and shouts "Witness me!" to his fellow soldiers before he sacrifices himself, so they know he gave up his life to earn a spot in Valhalla. This line is a favorite of a lot of the War Boys.
