Very interesting. Mom and Dad built a house in 1969-70 and hired a well driller who used an antiquated old drilling rig on a 1950 Checrolet truck. It had massive reels of steel cable for drilling deep but it operated on the same principal as this. I was told it was called "Churn drilling." The driller had to drill over 200 feet deep to get a good supply of water.

It's also called cable percussion drilling.
