Talking about laying on the job; laying down on this job back in the '50's is an understatement. These guys were
literately laying on the floor when it came to this job. They had to lay down on the floor for the kind of a job they had to do, because; for the job they were doing back they wouldn't have a big, long, and wide enough table to finish up any village, town, countryside, county, city, country and/or world maps. The way they do it today. I betcha it was a lot harder and time ⏲ consuming then it is today. Look at the way they had to stretch out and stretch out the map page/paper to get every single detail of every single street name and address, and important buildings that belong on the map/maps for all the things I said about earlier in this comment: and boy; they probably did some stretching afterwards when they were working on the map/maps for the day and for the week just to get the kinks out of their bodies including their backs in order to not get stiff and/or tightness in their bodies for lunchtime and quitting time for each of the weekdays, and for the week.

The picture that got me was the ceremony where Ukraine surrendered their nuclear capabilities to Russia.

The picture at 3:31 is disgusting. It's amazing what people can celebrate. It should be a picture of their faces being pushed into the cake.
