That is not the Dicke Bertha! The name Dicke Bertha only applies to the 42cm M-Gerät, which is not the same gun as the 42cm Gamma. They did however fire the same shell.
Both the gunbarrel, breech and the mounting are diffrent between the M-Gerät and the Gamma. The one in this clip is the Gamma. The M-Gerät had a feldlafette and armoured shield and did not require a concrete bedding like the Gamma.

it's very rare to see a WWI german 420mm in action.
