1955 Disneyland Opening Day [Complete ABC Broadcast]
Disneyland Park is a theme park located in Anaheim, California, owned and operated by the Walt Disney Parks and Resorts division of the Walt Disney Company. Known as Disneyland when it opened on July 18, 1955, and still colloquially known by that name, it is the only theme park to be designed and built under the direct supervision of Walt Disney. In 1998, the theme park was re-branded "Disneyland Park" to distinguish it from the larger Disneyland Resort complex.
Walt Disney came up with the concept of Disneyland after visiting various amusement parks with his daughters in the 1930s and 1940s. He initially envisioned building a tourist attraction adjacent to his studios in Burbank to entertain fans who wished to visit; however, he soon realized that the proposed site was too small. After hiring a consultant to help determine an appropriate site for his project, Walt bought a 160-acre (65 ha) site near Anaheim in 1953. Construction began in 1954 and the park was unveiled during a special televised press event on July 17, 1955.
Since its opening, Disneyland has undergone a number of expansions and renovations, including the addition of New Orleans Square in 1966, Bear Country (now Critter Country) in 1972, and Mickey's Toontown in 1993. Disney California Adventure Park was built on the site of Disneyland's original parking lot and opened in 2001.
Disneyland has a larger cumulative attendance than any other theme park in the world, with close to 600 million guests since it opened.

Le Mans 1955 accident: Raw footages of the crash in HD (Read description)
Visit http://trajectoires.net to watch the preview of my project: Le Mans 1955 accident raw footages. This accident was captured at least on four different cameras and angles. I have read a lot of reports on this accidents, but after analyzing those raw footages by myself I found a lot of those reports were inaccurate.
-- First shoot is from an amateur camera. Film is broken at the last picture. It has been said that the cameraman has been injured or killed. This shoot was long lost (or hidden)... When film shown at normal speed, it is obvious that Pierre Levegh had no chance to avoid the collision. It also shows that Lance Macklin had almost lost control of his Austin. He went to his left much more than needed to avoid Hawthorn who was braking for pitting.
-- Second shoot is the most famous. It mainly shows how parts of the car where thrown into the public.
-- Third shoot is from the top of the pits. On the very first frames, it shows how the Mercedes actually fell into the crowd and bounced over the fence again to finaly stop and explose next to the track. This is something I wasn't aware of and descovered by watching the document frame by frame. It also shows the engine, front axle and pilot catapulted out of the car.
The fourth one was captured in color but is shown here in a black and white version. It mainly shows Maclin's Austin bouncing in the pits, killing and injuring people on the right side of the track.

Rode Safely Victor Horsman Liverpool 1955
A motorcycle road safety from 1955, made by the Liverpool Motorcycle dealership Victor Horsmans. It is filmed in and around The Wirral and Liverpool City Centre. The film features various riders such as Nobby Clark (not sure if this was Mike Hailwoods mechanic) Bill Quinn, Eric Wilson, Keith Walker and Ken Morris who all seem to be local Merseyside riders, well known in the TT ISDT etc.
I have tried to spot local area's seen in the film and so far I can recognise Parkgate, Heswall, New Brighton, Birkenhead, Castle St, The Tunnel Entrance and the road coming back from The Ponderosa in Wales. If you recognise any other locations please feel free to add a note ie Gayton Roundabout approach A540 towards Heswall 26:53. Any history about the featured riders would also be most welcomed.
Finally, thanks to Eddy Q for supplying the donor DVD.
