I had an uncle who told me that after 50 years history starts to become legendary. This video is the follow on to the previous one I posted regarding British rifle qualification in 1914. In it is a clear analysis of the fact of the "Mad Minute" (exercise 22 in annual qualification - sort of.)

There is also a brief explanation of the "Mad Minute" as an individual feat of arms shot as a demonstration by British firearms instructors. For that part in detail, if you care to watch it, just leave the program on at the end of the video and that part will come up. With that in mind the video seems to end a bit before it actually does and the end is worth watching, IMHO.
