Public Information films. I loved this rhyme. Still do.
BE SAFE AT WORK
Sir Isaac Newton told us why
An apple falls down from the sky
And from this fact, it's very plain,
All other objects do the same
A brick, a bolt, a bar, a cup,
Invariably fall down, not up
And every common working tool
Is governed by the self-same rule
So when you handle tools up there,
Let your watchword be, "Take Care!"
If at work, you drop a spanner,
It travels in a downward manner
At work, a fifth of accidents or more,
Illustrate old Newton's law
But one thing he forgot to add,
The damage won't be half as bad
If you are wearing proper clothes,
Especially on your head and toes
These hats and shoes are there to save
The wearer from an early grave
So best feet forward and take care
About the kind of shoes you wear
It's better to be sure, than dead,
So get a hat and keep your head
Don't think to go without is brave;
The effects of gravity can be grave. |

Given this is the 50th Anniversary of the moon landing, this is relevant.
We have forgotten the first man in space. It is often thought to be Yuri Gagarin but it wasn't. He was the first person to orbit the Earth.
The first person in space was Joseph Kittinger. Look up his freefall on YouTube. It's nuts.

the Karman line is 62 miles above sea level(100km) which is conventionally the start of space in space treaties and in aeronautics records keepings.Kittinger says he jumped from 18 and half miles(30km)

"Reverse charges

You can still make a reverse charge call.
Don't know if they ate still done but there used to be free calls for companies where you dialled 100 for the operator and asked for, eg Freephone RAC. 0800 call services superseded them and probably totally replaced them.
