Summary:A cameraman is filming routine progress on the construction of a motorway near Wellington, New Zealand on September 27 1965 - when suddenly the unexpected happens. As an excavator gouges earth out of the hills a huge boulder breaks loose and hurtles down the slope, striking a workman en route. Fortunately it is a rare and miraculous escape, and he suffers only minor bruising and shock.
