Charlton Heston's angry 'damned dirty ape' outburst from Planet of the Apes, used by creators for dramatic reveals, betrayals and monkey-related jokes.

This five-second clip captures Charlton Heston as astronaut George Taylor shouting the line at his ape captors in the original Planet of the Apes. His voice is raw, strained and furious, rising to a shout on the final word as the music and crowd noise fall away behind him. The delivery is defiant rather than funny on its own, which is why it lands so hard when it is dropped over a modern clip. It instantly frames someone as arrogant, ungrateful or caught out, turning a simple reveal into a moment of theatrical outrage and giving the viewer a familiar cinematic punch to react to.

The line comes from the 1968 film Planet of the Apes, in which Charlton Heston plays stranded astronaut George Taylor, captured and caged by intelligent apes. Near the end of his captivity, Taylor finally speaks and lashes out at his captors, and the insult became one of the film's most quoted moments. Decades later it circulated online as a reaction clip and soundboard sound, reused whenever a human character turns on an animal, a rival, or an unexpected villain. Its blunt, old-Hollywood anger keeps it instantly recognisable.
