Glimpses from Aitik in Gällivare

Seven videoclips put together, just for the heck of it, with Windows Movie Maker. All clips are filmed onboard a Cat 793D dump truck in New Boliden's coppermine Aitik situated outside the town of Gällivare in northern Sweden. I wish I could make this a bit longer but these are the only clips I had to work with ;). You can also spot a Cat 994F, Cat 980G and a Bucyrus shovel (forgot the model).

I drove these trucks during the summer and autumn of 2009 (the economic crisis sort of forced me to), and what a great experience it was. I have now returned to my old job at an underground mine, I'll probably never have the chance to drive anything this big again ;)

Why did I remove the sound and replaced it with this music? - Because the music inside the truck was even worse, sorry if you can't stand it :D

Jag har jobbat i Aitik och oljudet i filmen är värre än verkligheten. Synd.

@mrskogsmannen Oljudet från USB stickan i trucken får detta att låta som dansmusik :))
