"you're A Better Man Than I, Gunga Din"
23 Answers
I wonder if anybody remembers this, and can tell me where it originated. I think it was back in the 70s, that Kenny Everett - perhaps - kept running a mad sound clip that ran for about 2 or 3 minutes. It was basically just sounds of utter chaos and galloping horses, with outbreaks of heavy gunfire, which kept subsiding, then breaking out again. I don't think there was anything else to it, no dialogue or anything - until the chaos and gunfire finally died down. In the final seconds of silence, an American voice just came in and said "You're a better man than I, Gunga Din". I know there was 1939 movie called Gunga Din, which I'd rather not sit through to see if it's in that, which I somehow doubt, as it always sounded to me like something that some US shock jock had done for a laugh. Anybody got any memory of this?

I vaguely remembered a Goon Show version. Google turned up some paradies of the film which were released as records: http:// illfolks. blogspot. co. uk/ 2012/ 09/ gunga- din- didnt- illfolks- voices- blasted. html
