Forged - Making a Rogue Barbell - 4k Extended Cut 

This is the only RU-vid commercial I've ever watched all the way through. Far better than whatever I was going to watch.

No celebrities, No super models, No white sand beaches and yet you have managed to make what may be the most beautiful and captivating piece of advertising ever, Hell it may be the best 4 minutes of anything I have ever sat through.

My Dad works in a steel mill similar to this mill. Manual labor does not get the credit it used to in the United States. Thank you Rogue for bringing some glory back to the people making America great.

I went to school for marketing.... this ad has to be one of the most captivating commercials I've ever seen....congrats to the minds who created this marketing masterpiece.....I watch it for inspiration .....love the song. Go Rogue!!

This is the only ad, I watch repeatedly and still feel myself tear up. It's beautiful- the showcasing of American manufacturing. As an Engineer it makes me feel proud to see some brands still hanging on to what America is built on.

Probably the best commercial I've ever watched... and it's for barbells!

That was mesmerizing. I want to make Rogue Barbells when I grow up.

Friend " are you crying?" Me" this this barbell commercial is beautiful." Friend " whatever weirdo"

I'm one of those people who gets goosbumps and tears up when I see well done art and music....just did that in between markplier videos. Bravo. Perfect ad.

I still return to this video years later, not only to reminisce its beauty, but to fulfill my motivation completely for when I train day after day. Witnessing the destruction and creation of Rogue’s barbells enlists a journey , the journey that barbell’s go through just as much evolution as we people do. Strong metal alloys to increased muscle strength, fine knurling to conditioned skin. These connections allow us to acknowledge the craftsmanship of these barbells and their significance to our lives.

I hope Rogue is paying their marketing team nine figure salaries. This shit is on point.

I have worked in the metal industry for the last 10yrs. Currently i work for a mold manufacturing company as a five axis cnc machinist. I am so proud when i see companies posting videos like this. Thank you rogue for your contribution to american manufacturing. Absolutely beautiful video.

This is not a commercial, it's a work of art, just beautiful.

i work this mill a great place to work and a lot of teamwork goes into those coils.

Rogues marketing team is freaking amazing. Never thought I’d see a metal pole being made would be inspiring.

When you have chills when watching a barbell commercial. You know they did a great job

With the right music and camera work, even something as mundane as manufacturing a barbell can be turned into something...beautiful.

Who else came back to appreciate this legendary ad?

I've watched this commercial probably 1,000 times over the past few years - love the vibe and the music. 10/10.

this project came from Sansom Media, guys amazing work..... just epic... the music track is an unpublished score

I have studied a lot of things music, cultures, health ,Science, space, but this commercial is simply one of the most amazing commercials in history !

Just saw this commercial on RU-vid today. Best commercial ever, I watched the whole thing, because it was just so beautifully done.

I willingly searched up and watched this ad that's how good it is.

This is the best commercial I have ever seen. The most unexpected. Jaw dropping. Inspiring. Evocative. The beauty of a high fashion film, for steel bar. So artsy, so beautiful. Must make Rogue Employees so proud... Domestic Manufacturing at its best!

Four years after it's made, I finally see this ad. Outstanding cinematography. I want to give the DP a hug.

Just went back to one of my favorites, stored on YT. I love this video. Impressed by the cinematography, choreography, and all around casting. These guys in the foundry weren't there to make a commercial that day. They just wanted a beer after work. A seriously bad ass plant, an incredible product (I'm a fat ass beer drinker fyi, lol), and I would be proud to represent Rogue.

Whoever came up with this commercial better have gotten a raise. That was mesmerizing.

Thank you for making a beautiful fair ad with no propaganda. True escapism which treats us all equally. I love this ad for eternity.

This advertising made me stop and watch through the whole thing... Didn't even remember what I initially was going to watch. Very well made. Who produced it?

This is one of the most amazing commercials I have ever seen a company do. This is completely eye-catching and beautiful. the audio is perfect for this as well. Immideaitly gets your attention with suspense, then completely changes the game when realized this was a gym barbell advertisement. Rogue Fitness, you know how to advertise.

I didn’t even know what this was a commercial for. I was captivated. 30 seconds in and I knew this was the best video I have seen in a long time. I freaking cheered when I realized it was a barbell. I’m a Crossfit trainer and I work with these exact bars everyday. That was the biggest twist ending for me. 1000/10 would watch forever.

I watch this every single time... I'm a Texas power bar guy, who doesn't currently own a single piece of Rogue equipment, but I still have to watch this every single time.

taking someones trash and making it in to a work of art. this is the best ad in the world. need to play this on national television or something. make the barbell great again.

I watched this advertisment / masterpiece on another RU-vid video as an add that showed in the middle of the video. It's so amazing to watch and so we'll made that I had to head over here to give it a like. It is the only commercial on RU-vid that I willing watched the whole thing sense I have started watching RU-vid and to find out at the end it was for barbells, wow mind blown. Bravo to whom ever directed that.

My goodness this is staggeringly epic. It is the only commercial I've searched for to watch again. Even my 3 year old daughter said daddy that was berry beautiful, can we watch it again?

Still one of the finest showcases of what marketing can and should be. It's made me appreciate that the lowly barbell in my gym is a labour of love and hard work. Forever a Rogue fan.

I’m so glad I’m not the only person who is totally captivated by this video!! I had to watch the ad all the way through and didn’t even care that I had no clue what it was for. Now I appreciate bar bells more than I did before.

I was lucky to get this ad while watching on a 68" inch 4k tv. I was so amazed that I watched it again. I also am strongly considering going into the steel industry

This is hands down the best commercial I have ever seen. It came in on whatever video I was watching. I had no idea what this commercial was for but it was mesmerizing! Amazing work. My hats off to the people who made this!

This is definitely one of the best commercials I’ve seen

Awesome video and music. Great to see a video about Made in America steel. Wee need to take it all back and only use USA made products. We do not need anybody else. We are the Strong. Amen.

This is beautiful. I'm so glad that I bought my barbell from Rogue. I bought a B&R bar with the intention of training with it for the rest of my life and with the quality that I see in my bar, I think it's up to the task. Thank you Rogue Fitness. And thank you for keeping in AMERICAN MADE. shit makes me proud

I came across this ad while binge watching Alec Steele videos. Finally, RU-vid matches an ad to a video (the ad on the video before was about buying flowers)! I paused the video I was getting ready to watch to drift over here and see the ad again. That's powerful advertising!

This ad still gives me chills.

Goosebumps. Every. Time.

I like how you guys made reality to look so beautiful. No supermodels, sand beaches, expensive cars etc, just the reality and facts how its done and still one of the most enjoyable commercials i've seen

Finally someone makes an ad that is gorgeous to watch and has a great score! I've been letting this play through everytime it pops up. Way to promote the American workers and the inherent beauty found in the building of products that build bodies! Sharing this with everyone I know as an example of ads worth watching and products worth buying.

I was going to watch some other video when the (dreaded) commercial began and I quickly reached for the mouse to mute it. But there has never been... in my life... a commercial that has so captivated me that I had to track the company down to add my comment here. Rogue, what a beautiful commercial! I watched all 4 minutes, 11 seconds of it twice and both times was riveted to the screen. Thank you for your creativity.

This is the only commercial I watch on You Tube! I've seen it over 100 times, and it blows me away every time I watch it! Beautiful work!

Cinematography on this ad is 10/10 I actually watched it all the way through whoever made it deserves a raise

The music and the slowmo works perfectly with this, my mind is blown. Fantastic job on this commercial

Oh my God. This has got to be the best RU-vid commercial ever! I sat through the entire thing. Who ever made this captured the inspirational spirit of “creation overtime” very well. I imagined planet earth being formed over millions of years just listening and watching this. I can’t say enough. Why is this showing up on my account only till now?

The amount of time and detail that went into this video shows. This made me want to buy your products and I don’t even really workout. Whoever directed this needs a raise. Great work

I saw this commercial at night time😍😍and got hooked on the slow motion 10/10 wood put on replay😍

This ad just showed up when I was watching something else music related on RU-vid. I’ve got lots of equipment from Rogue they are the best. As others have said, this is one of the best ads if not the best ever. The music, the iron, the flames, the power. Awesome piece of work.

There's really nothing I can say about this commercial that hasn't already been said in the comments. I NEVER watch commercials but I was so captivated, I couldnt hit the skip button. Kudos

I had to save in my files. I love watching and listening to the music. The visuals are amazing! Watching the process is unreal!

I love this commercial and the extended Rogue Warhorn one. Very well done marketing!!

This is such a great commercial, I have to look it up every once in awhile to re-watch, much better than the commercial I've seen recently.

I literally watched this about three times in a row for the music and imagery. Beautiful just beautiful!

You got to love cinematography. It the art of showing the unseen

Absolutely the best commercial ever made or will ever be made mesmerizing inspirational

This song woke me up a few times when i had youtube playing..it wakes me up everytime..i just started listening to it half awake.i love it!

Y'know....I really have to hand it to the filmers and editors that made this. This really is a beautiful video. The folks who made this have every reason to be proud of what they made. Most sincere Kudos to them all.

This is my favorite commercial from now on! Love it!!!!

The fact you made a video that not only captures an awesome process, but somehow making it emotional in a way, kudos to you!

Epic. I’ve never sat thru a RU-vid commercial. Amazing. 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 🇺🇸

dannnng forge, you got me rooting for you, i don't even know what other things you make. but i support it

FANTASTIC commercial guys! Give your advertising department a very well deserved raise! Absolutely incredible!

Seven years later, i still listen to this, its a its too good to forget

There is nothing more beautiful than creating something that will last a life time. And watching this video motives you to do more when you see this video.

I used to work in a steel melt shop very similar to this and this brought back a bunch of good memories of that place and the people there. Thank you for highlighting this as part of your add. It's great to show what goes into making a product.

This is by far the most amazing advertising I have ever seen and I watch it every time it comes on, it is truly awe inspiring👍👍👍👍

I've never watched another commercial THIS many times. Wish I could download this tune somewhere though!

Whoever shot this video needs an ADDY award. This should be shown at Cannes.

I’ve ALWAYS hit skip...without fail. I just watched this add, in it’s entirety, twice. ...and I’ll probably watch it again at some point tomorrow.

Just saw this commercial this morning. This is the coolest commercial I think I have ever seen. Very nicely done!

This is the only RU-vid ad I've ever watched through... then watched again. Amazing.

Very creative commercial. I watched it all without skipping, even though I was about to watch a different video. I think I’m gonna remember Rogue and their barbells for the rest of my life.

I didn't know what to expect when RU-vid recommended this commerical to me. My God am I glad it did.

An ad I didn’t skip. Beautiful.

Absolutely Beautiful. It's a rare thing to have such a fantastic ad, and it's even rarer to have an ad that I went to find because the screen on the phone didn't do it justice. Thank you

When an ad make you marvel at it so much that you forget that you were watching a video, Thats when you know youve found a company that cares about every aspect of what they do, down to the timing of the advertisement.

Fantastic job to whomever created this ad. Was going to just Skip like any other and got sucked in and had to finish it. Went back and watched again

I must admit, i totally forgot what i was looking for 30 seconds into this ad. And yes, i did watch the entire 4:11 of it too. And even watched it again, read the comments and went to foundermusic.com. And yes, i did spend $4 to download the music! Well done Rogue!

This is by far the best commercial I have ever seen

Don't know how much this commercial was to pay for...but I enjoyed ever moment of it, like a kid watching his toys being made in santa's shop.

This is the stuff RU-vid recommends at 3am , it was honestly the best sleep I got in years after watching the whole thing with the slo-mo and music

Commercial came on last night while I was watching something. First one I never skipped. Gave me chills of my grandfather working in the coal mine for 44 years. A whole new respect for the barbell

I want to buy rouge barbells just because of this add.

THE GREATEST COMMERCIAL EVER DONE HANDS DOWN!!!!💪🤘🔥😎

Used to work in that Meltshop. You guys did an amazing job capturing it. Gives me the chills and brings back so many memories everytime I watch it.

Out of all the advertisements I've seen, this is probably the only one showing the manufacturing process.

Reminds me of my job, running a 15 ton Lectro-Melt electric arc furnace, in a green sand casting foundry, for Midland-Ross. Right out of high school, 1979.

The only commercial I actually put on my repeat play list...😊

What, is this beautiful and hypnotizing music? It turns something so blue collar and hard labored into something absolutely beautiful and awe inspiring. This is probably the only advertisement that will win a like in my book.👌🏻

Easily one of the best advertisements ever made. Artistic and beautiful. I'll be adding a Rogue bar to my gym soon.

I cried. How is this so captivating D:

2.2m views. 7 dislikes... Best ad ever.

When I get to Heaven, I want this to be my entrance music for real
