There's narration for the first 5 and a half minutes, skip to 5:45 to actually see it fire.

This is the arming, loading, firing and aftermath of the world's largest trebuchet located in Warwick Castle, Warwick England.

This trebuchet fires objects at a whopping 150 miles per hour. Here the trebuchet is pulled back by tractor for sake of time. Otherwise it is typically armed by 4 men. 2 inside each wheel located at the base.
