Wow. I just watched an entire 16 minute 1982 safety video from an industry I'll likely never have any connection to whatsoever. I guess this is my life now.
The one that got crushed is a fleetside 68. Has the old style grille and emblems and the side marker lights. The one they show a few seconds later is a different truck, a stepside '69 or '70 with the newer grille and emblems
These haul trucks are a marvel. I drove a Cat 777D right after high school for a few years. Drive all spring and summer, help the shop do winter maintenance in the fall and winter. Lining the dump beds with AR plate was a task.
Back when the old 2-cycle screamed night and day but I HATED those convex mirrors as the only one on the drivers side. One with a good straight mirror was fine.
I just like to see all the old equipment and the world that is long gone. The safety lesson just adds interest so it isn't just video of random machines driving around making machine noises.
1,278,563 cigarettes were collectively smoked by the combined mining employee population; during the complete operational lifecycle of this fleet of trucks.
Safety procedures don't really change much, except to get more strict and wide-ranging. But basic safety is basic safety. safe handling a musket is fundamentally the same as an AR15, is is the technical operation that gets different. Same with machinery.
Headframe Hunters behind the times excavator wise. Could have poclains on the job. That’s what we had in Europe. Biggest hydraulic excavator in the world one time
Actually, the fact is that he attempted to jump into the truck while this was running at speed, and in doing so he lost his balance on the ladder and fell down.
@@SnowColdGarage He heard one of those 2-cycles screaming in one of the haul trucks and it sounded so good he couldn't take it and passed out from sheer pleasure!
This video and many like it came at a perfect time for me. I'm currently taking an OSHA related safety class and this video is one of many that contributes to my course's learning objectives. Thanks for posting this and thanks for the help!
I know a lot of open pit mines look the same, especially from down in the pit, but there were segments there where this looked like the Ray copper mine in Arizona.
Right, but unfortunately just on the rim of the mine at the public view point. As a matter of fact, Mel and I were just up there last Saturday and I tried shooting some new video, but the wind was killing me and shaking the camera so badly that it was a futile attempt. I'll have to go another time and try it again.
Those old Wabco's were pretty decent haul trucks in their day. Still quite a few of them left in service. They were also offered with Cummins power. I've never seen a CAT powered one, so not sure if that was an option.
Westinghouse Air Brake Company made mine haul trucks? That WABCO guage to me looked like air pressure for the brakes. Kinda familiar with the WABCO name, run trains for a living.
@@theknickerbocker5808 Yes they did. I think it was around 1952 or 1953 Westinghouse bought LeTournneau's off-road equipment division and started the Wabco lineup of haul trucks, etc.
14:20 wow that was an easy way to get killed. Just trip and you're dead. It is a miracle I made it throu my childhood when I see what a simple fall can do :D
You can die from a trip, it's not really a joke. Even a simple trip and stumble. Certainly get injured. In any case, you can easily hit your head and knock yourself out, especially with the added momentum of a vehicle. Ask me how I know. I tried riding on the back bumper of a friend car when I was like 15. He sped up and started being "funny" swerving around, and I slipped off. My feet hit the road, my head hit the ground and it knocked me out cold for a moment. It isn't a stretch to imaging a person being more seriously injured, especially a grown adult. The idea is you won't necessarily just get up and dust yourself off and go back to work.
It was swapped. He drove up in a 73-80 chevy truck, then climbed out of a 67-72 chevy truck. The 67-72 was likely non-driveable in some way, so they used a newer white truck for the driving shot.
I can see that modern digital cameras...hell, even CVTV....would be enormously helpful in backing up a large haul truck. Think of the size of the blind zo r, the space they take up, and the serious consequences of hitting something accidentally with something that large and expensive. let alone killing someone. You hit something with a rig like that, and it is going to be an expensive mistake.
I must be one of the few normal civilians who grew up using wheel chocks as a normal thing. A lot of my dad's vehicles didn't have parking brakes and he didn't always trust the compression. He always used chocks, especially on steep hills. And i remember he did have at least one Volvo that would lurch back slowly, one cylinder at a time, an inch every few minutes, if you left it parked on a hill. I do miss those old 240s, they don't build cars like that any more.
3:52 - 4:07 There were 2 different Chevrolet pickup trucks used in that scene, the first one was a '73 long bed, & the second one was a '68 short bed which was the one that got crushed by the biggo dump truck.
All these comments about the poor squished truck but we are going to ignore it wasnt the same truck? A square body 73-75 and when crushed it was a 69-72.
This only make me feel like a old man. These films was state of art safety films they show us during safety meetings new!!!. If run heavy equipment we did learn something might save life or 2. But make me feel old in 2019. No grand paw jokes now.
Interesting how the square body (73-79) one ton Chevy at 3:53 suddenly morphed into a 1970 half ton at 3:56. {Ouch, poor truck!} Damn shame they had to kill that beautiful classic just to make a point. I'd be interested to learn what mine that is, where it is, and what they're mining.
this is all kinds of dangerous. also imagine driving 16 cylinder SCREAMING DETROIT DIESEL Euclid haul truck with a dirty 1970's hangover while chainsmoking unfiltered Marlboros in hundred degree weather.

I died a little inside seeing that 67 C10 get crushed.
I'm pretty sure it was a 70. But yeah, damn shame.

on such a big truck, couldnt you fit a door sized mirror for backing up? angle it edge on while driving forwards and pull it back when backing up

We have had to watch this and shake hands with danger every year for about 15years in a row at our annual saftey meeting
"In the year 1999. An event occurred in the skies over North America; that would alter the course of human history..."
My (all time)favorite narrator.
I'm sure this video is STILL very useful. Even if it might SEEM outdated.

I am a mining engineering student and I love watching this video.
Yesterday I shook hands with danger.
Today I learned the word berm.
Nice
This looks like it was released in the 70s or 60s, not 1982.
70s at the absolute earliest, rigid haul trucks of that size didn't start to appear until then.
Headframe Hunters well they were not up to date with there excavators then. I was thinking myself it’s not 1982
@@ferguson20diesel49 Just looked it up, MESA only existed from 1973-1978, so it was filmed in that period.

It probably should have been done with a Dodge pickup truck not that old 6769 Chevy C10 that's my favorite body style for a pickup truck.
Crazy to think that when they made this video it was probably a worthless truck. Nowit would be worth a decent amount.

Been doing this for over 30 years, seen plenty. Have plenty of help from state and federal agencies that make sure that WE make sure we work safe.

Is it that it’s actually better, or is it because appeals to nostalgia guarantee comment approval.
