See No. 6: Thrills of 1938

This 1938 silent newsreel, See (No. 6), from Castle Films, delivers a black-and-white thrill anthology. "Monkey Whoopee!" showcases a circus of costumed chimpanzees, followed by a modern William Tell piercing a balloon in a woman’s mouth. "Giants Tumble!" features daredevil lumberjacks felling trees and logrolling on a river. "Super Leap!" dazzles with a motorboat-to-glider stunt, while "For Self Defense" displays Japanese jiu-jitsu experts and a woman tossing mock assailants. "Air Aces" captures a mass flight over New York, "Wings over Mt. Lassen" soars above the volcano, and a Philippine eruption blazes. A 10-minute pre-war spectacle of stunts and wonders.
