Inside slot machines

June 21st, 2007 by Dave

Channel 8 KLAS-TV has an exclusive look inside slot machines:

Las Vegas has more than 207,500 slot machines. Anyone living here or visiting has seen the outside of them, but few people actually see the inside… until now. Reporter Edward Lawrence gives us an exclusive inside look at how slot machines are built and what they look like inside.

You need to scroll down and select the story, which should open up in your video player–there is no permalink up for it. Still, it’s good viewing. Great camera work, particularly.
