I remember that video!!! It and "Road construction ahead" were my favorite as a little kid.

I don't remember that from my childhood. I remember it from my nephew's childhood (and my early 30s).

Egad, I'm getting OLD.

Never seen that before, nice find!

I got a kick out of the other stuff like the "there goes a truck" or "there goes a garbage truck" !*roll-laugh*! "there goes an airplane" was pretty cool. !!*ok*!!

There's a turbine in a Dash 8?

Also, when I was a kid we had a B/W TV and I watched the first moon landing live on it -- so no videos for me...
