A scene from Armageddon 1998
Harry

[during the standoff with the bomb]

For God's sakes, think about what you're doin'. Why are you listening to someone that's a hundred thousand miles away? No one down there can help us and if we don't get this job done, then everybody's gone.

Chick

Forty two seconds.

Harry

I have been drilling holes in the earth for thirty years. And I have never, never missed a depth that I have aimed for. And by God, I am not gonna miss this one. I will make 800 feet.

Col. Sharp

You swear on your daughter's life, on my family's, that you can hit that mark?

Harry

I will make 800 feet. I swear to God I will.

Col. Sharp

[lowers his gun]

Then let's turn this bomb off.
