Yeah it was a Mitchell bomber, twin engine prop-job, the B52 wasn't even a twinkle in the designer's eye yet. At the end of the newsreel there it mentions the lift operator who fell 80 floors which is still a record for surviving a lift fall. She was injured by the plane which hit one floor above her, then the cables snapped.
