Ah, There's just so much wrong with what's going on in that movie by 
today's standards. But, Men were Men (with British Racing Green 
lungs) and they weren't afraid to put their foot next to the rotating 
machinery when adjusting the brakes. And, they didn't think twice 
about reaching under the cutting table to retrieve the hot metal with 
the oxy torch just inches from their hair. I'm glad to see too that 
MG's smoked before they left the factory. The Health and Safety 
people could get alot of mileage out of a movie like that these days. 
Great movie though. Thanks for the link, Peter!!!!!
