I asked myself about that part.

[Holger]

[martyn williams]

The replaced the driver and cut his pay
No ,I read an article on this film they said that the driver was killed doing the stunt.

i watched this video several years ago our boss has it with a few very interesting old plant films but not a chance of getting hold of them he wont lend them to me big shame

[martyn williams]

If you like old CAT machinery films,get the Millers plant videos.There are a lot of footage from the 1920's and 30's.
Cheers
