This is a 1972 color film by Cullen Productions, sponsored by the Lead Industries Association, about the element Lead (Pb) and its many uses. It was likely produced as a p.r. effort at a time when the element was under assault in the media, and was about to be phased out of gasoline.

Lead & asbestos. What wonderful materials they are 😊
Well, I mean, they technically are if you ignore all the negative aspects lol. It seems that humans can't win. They find some very useful material then later find out that it has some serious negative aspect.
@@amymoriyama6616 frankly, we did win once we figured out fission. But dumb Soviets and a horribly placed Japanese reactor… have made people question a source so useful that it will power colonies that stretch into the known cosmos
Lead! Not just useful, but also delicious!
Lead in paint was absolutely wonderful to work with. Beautiful.
Had a nice shine and really looked great too!
Wow, lead-asbestos pads. My, how times have changed.
I will accept no substitutes.
I wish I could get some
Fantastic video, I love watching these , thank you
leaded gasoline and sweet paint are my favourite
Lead also makes wine taste much sweeter
I saw that on Weird history too. LOL
Battery operated hand tools have advanced just a little.
Lead Paint: Delicious but Deadly!
I'm gonna look up that lead/asbestos manufacturing company... I need a job and that sounds like it has a future!
Science didn't so much "march on" from this film as it ran screaming for help.
Remember, he who "smelt" it dealt it.
Mmmm the aroma
"Ok boys, get the lead out!"
Unexpectedly riveting. Thanks! :)
lead..its not just for breakfast anymore
OMGoodness! No face filter masks, no protective eyewear, and Pb fumes = Lead poisoning.
Lead. Is whats for Dinner..
Lead water pipes, lead in gasoline, lead in paints, lead and asbestos--what could be better? Ironically, this movie was made while the auto industry was being forced to design engines that would run without leaded gasoline.
@keith moore Yup.
I would buy leaded paint if I could still get it.
That stuff really held up!
Tasted great too!
Why do you think they took leaded paint of the shelves ??? Because in house paints it blocks radiation from scanning you sitting in your pad.
Lead and asbestos, now that’s a combo
why get brain damange, when you get brain damage and mestheolima and cancer
Another beauty from PF! Or should this film be listed as from the what-were-they-thinking-back-then dept.?
I was certainly Lead propaganda that was made by, made for and paid for by the Lead Industries Association 100% just look at 25:25 We have known the toxicity of Lead for the last 4,000 years. The Greek philosopher Nikander of Colophon in 250 BC reported on the colic and anemia resulting from lead poisoning. Yet not 1 down side was mentioned in this entire film. SMDH, with the number of things Lead was added to its no wonder its been so hard and taken so long to clean up the environment poisoned by, yep you guessed it, LEAD!
I want lead fertilizer for my vegetable garden. Im sure its fine
♥.♥
Thanks...

20:00 The 'Boat Building', home of Phoenix Mutual Life Insurance in Hartford, CT.
Surly this is older than 1972?
I'm surprised there wasn't lead toilet paper too.
There was lead tinsel on the Christmas tree!
Looks like what lead didn't get the atom will! Thanks, Periscope! OOPS! Forgot asbestos!
15:13 - lead and asbestos together!
Lead, I put that sh!t on everything!
Proof that natural products are perfectly safe for every day use.
You know it. They dont want lead because it sheilds radiation. Ie house paint, there scanning with the str. Lights...
Tetra Ethel Lead. Uh, oh!
They forgot Bullets.
Eat Lead Varmints!
All that dross. It surely is delicious! 😁
George Ray Benz Croft 1675 made that glass. Ceramics. See ram mics ??? SAme players making bricks. Metal protecting lead paints...
If you like this vid, check out the one about copper, also on this channel.
It is also a silent killer to humans
How different our society would be if instead of "Lead" they called it "Fred"....
Fill him with Fred - some gangster circa 1930
Jesus
Ah! the smell of smelting lead.
Lead is an amazing part of our everyday lives. But it has its place. MANY of the uses suggested here are not the best ways to use lead. But F it! It was the 50s!
Hmm, this film has not aged well :(
FYI, some Roman architects prohibited the use of lead in water systems, they knew even back then how dangerous it is.
This aged well.. 🤢
Better dead with Lead.
If you refuse to turn off mid roll or mid video commercials don’t expect me to continue my subscription.
Over thirty minutes of Susan Wojcicki scams during your videos is way to much.
Is Susan Wojcicki paying you enough to aggravate your viewers?
I seriously doubt that!
Please turn off mid roll commercials for the sake of your viewers.
Boycott TH-cam premium apps and boycott TH-cam advertisers that have commercials over thirty seconds.
get a blocker. I had ZERO interruptions
If you unsubscribe the channel will shut down! Don't do it!
@@brucewelty7684
Tried it and failed.
Premium apps are a scam.
It would be better to let TH-cam fail.
@@ryandavis7593 The way greedy ass TH-cam/Google is going, I'm about ready to tell them to f**k off. Thanks a lot, you ruined a great service.
@Felix McWick I haven't seen a TH-cam ad in years.
Lead! Natures answer to Leftists
I’m a blue-collar liberal in western Washington State. Maybe you’d like to do something about me. Oh btw I got a blue-steel stiffy hearing that your Orange Aneurysm is being indicted. What a loser and a coward he is. What a chump you are for having supported him.
