Yes I´ve just remembered those films, because one of the main actors, Mr.Walter Roderer became 90 years old this week.

BTW:

Here are some other wall climbers:

And here´s the hero of my very early childhood days: Dudu" the beetle in a radical house-climbing scene in the movie "Ein Käfer auf Extratour"

That's worth a point! Maybe two, since there are two walls  ;D

I know they don't drive in the (up)right direction, but this 1933(!) film is nice enough to be shown:

The Unimog is a repost, metalshapes already found it.
BTW is the vehicle an Italian Guzzi?

EDIT: it is indeed a Guzzi Mulo Meccanico.

I'll rule "close enough"  in the three videos (two bad  links), minus the repost (that's the second time that kid flipped me the bird!) so, two points there. Are the other pics screen shots from the non-working videos?

Yes.
The link is working, but you have to copy it and paste it..I don't know why it gets broken after the '#'.

Which one are the good ones?

You're both right, of course. Since Paul is a stand-up guy, he retains one of the awarded points.

I love Grob's picture on top of this page. Where does it come from?

Here are my first two propositions (I doubt if i can find more!)
I'll  let you find the numerous reason why they can't rightly qualify.

Alas, it's a disproved myth. It was part of a so called "Fake Check" on German TV.
You can see a slight change in the film from 0:11. That's when it started to be computerized.
