The Sky is Falling Video Set from NIOSH This 5-part video collection tackles the issue of highwall safety in surface mining and construction.  The storyline follows investigative reporter Gerald Rivers on a 5 day special report to substantiate rumors of falling sky in the Western U.S.  Filmed on location at surface operations in Wyoming and Nevada, the video covers five basic areas: Blasting Safety, Personal Protective Equipment, Anatomy of a Highwall, Common Equipment on Surface Sites, and Common Signs of Hazardous Conditions.  Through Gerald's misguided attempts at news gathering we learn the truth about highwall safety from the experts - the miners.
