You under some impression they did that shit because they wanted to? It was a job and a decent-paying one.

They don't and never did. The image is fake as fuck. Are there men with no fear of heights? Yes. Do men walk out onto a lone girder, reposition to a sitting position like birds on a wire to eat lunch, then stand back up and return to their work platform? I'll let you take that one.

Its not fake but it is 100% staged. They usually went down to the nearest solid platform as that was where their lunches were. They didn't drag that shit up on a beam with them.

Akshullaly my granddad did that work and he'd talk about how they'd ride girders to the top and back down since there was no working elevator.

So that's not just a lunch photo, that's how they transported workers up the skyscraper and back down again.

He said if they loaded a girder up with enough people it wouldn't start spinning in the wind as you got up higher where the winds increased.

iirc, fatalities were 1 per floor per day. All of those men had access to pussy and could reasonably expect to be a homeowner if they survived. They moved into the city, so they weren't going to marry a childhood girl unless they returned home, but they were still likely to marry a woman who could reasonably pretend to be a virgin.

Those same men would not be hired to do that work today because they aren't indian. They also wouldn't take that work because the reward for doing so today is just enough for your food that day.

Watch the original Fantasia. The conductor of the orchestra was probably a nerd and a weakling in his time. Today he would be considered an absolute unit of a man.

He never mentioned any more than that one though.

But those are all immigrants. Dirt poor who were at the bottom of the barrel. Not "Americans". They took this job solely due to relatively high pay because it was dangerous, and they had nothing to lose.

And?
That's not the staged part anon, the building is directly underneath them. If the camera panned out you'd see they were simply ten foot on the superstructure underneath them.

I have no idea where that anon got the idea that it was some sort of photo of them being lifted up as some form of retarded lift.

20ft off of a concrete slab at most. Still staged still not fake.
