British Pathe Newsreels

Post by louiefoxx »

Recently I found a bunch of old newsreel footage of whip crackers. I put 9 links to video of whip crackers on my blog at http://bullwhips.org/?p=5002. There's a lot of cool old historical footage of different tricks that whip crackers used to do and even a short clip of a whip maker.

Check them out, they are pretty cool!
