Staplerfahrer Klaus, a German factory safety video that seems to have been inspired by Peter Jackson's early works, or possibly a comic splatter-horror film masquerading as a factory safety film. Includes forklifts, chainsaws and the sort of daggy/groovy incidental music that they seem to make only in Germany. If your browser doesn't play Windows Media inline, you can grab the WMV file here.

Awesome, love it to bits. Found a homepage for it - <http://www.staplerfahrerklaus.de/>

Reminded me of Look Around You a BBC comedy series that takes the piss of kids science shows from the 70s/80s. One of the best things is that it opens with that old analogue style clock they used to play between programs. I had forgotten about that completely.

I've got the Look Around You DVD; it's great. (See also: the title on http://dev.null.org/blog/ )

They actually sent me the DVD because they used a free TrueType font I once made (based on the BBC Micro Teletext character set, only smoothed out a bit) for the subtitles.
