Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Building Sites Bite is a 1978 public information film produced by the Central Office of Information for the Health and Safety Executive and the Mighty Movie Company for British schools to warn children about the dangers of playing on building sites. The film was written and directed by David Hughes and produced by Maggie Evans.It was created to teach children about the dangers of playing near building sites, and was regularly screened in schools throughout the UK in the late 1970s and beyond. Because of its similar production values and subject matter, it is often compared to The Finishing Line and Apaches, and can be regarded as an urban version of the latter.The film focuses on Ronald, a young boy who aspires to become a builder or surveyor when he grows up. His cousins Paul and Jane decide to test his Know-Nothing Know-It-All attitude by teleporting him to a building site and challenging him to find his dog and get out without injuring or killing himself. Needless to say, in every test the lad ignores all the danger signs and gets himself killed in all kinds of horrifying and/or undignified ways.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Cruel and Unusual Death: In order, Ronald is killed by being buried alive in a trench collapse, electrocuted in a condemned building, run over by an earthmoving vehicle, breaking his skull against a metal retaining wall after falling off a pipe, crushed to death by a falling pile of bricks, and drowning in an abandoned quarry. | |
