Are these really guys sitting on a beam that high up or is this an old joke?

RedShoe · 01-01-2003, 07:11 PM

freeadultcontent · 01-01-2003, 07:11 PM

Real, they did much crazier shit than that.

Probono · 01-01-2003, 07:11 PM

I am not sure about that image but I have seen similar construction igmaes from New York since before the days of photoshop.

AzteK · 01-01-2003, 07:12 PM

I'd believe it except it's kinda of hard lighting a cig that high up

EscortBiz · 01-01-2003, 07:15 PM

Triple 6 · 01-01-2003, 07:16 PM

rip raster · 01-01-2003, 07:31 PM

That is the construction of Rockefeller Center 1932

REAL!!

pornJester · 01-01-2003, 07:33 PM

i wonder how many of those guys fell to their deaths

dacash · 01-01-2003, 07:36 PM

that picture is 100% real, my dad owns a Steel erection company and i'm also in the Iron Worker Union ( i go work on steel for vacations) i use to work 5 years ago on steel but i like computer better.

Ironworker is positioned at number 6 out of the Top 10 most dangerous job in the world and back then they didn't have safety or nothing.

LiveDose · 01-01-2003, 07:38 PM

NO FEAR!

ytcracker · 01-01-2003, 07:42 PM

people are such fucking pussies now

survival of the fittest is no longer
it is now survival of the borderline retarded and up

Horny Dude · 01-01-2003, 07:42 PM

shit I would fall to my death so fast! These guys are the real deal right here! Better view than I have on my lunch break!

UnseenWorld · 01-01-2003, 07:45 PM

I think that may be a still from a newsreel movie. I think I've seen the movie that's from. You think THAT is crazy, I've seen pics of steelworkers in the old days, many of them navajos, walking around on the beams (12" wide or so) like they were sidewalks, so high above the city that the people below looked like ants. No safety lines or anything. I think today they need safety lines and/or nets.

True ...

SykkBoy · 01-01-2003, 07:50 PM

I'm such a clumsy fucker, I'd probably lose my shoe way up there....

Shaggy · 01-01-2003, 08:01 PM

You loose your fear of hights after a while. I was a brick layer working 10 stories up on scaffold and it botherd me a little at first but it goes away completely after a while. Cool pic.

the indigo · 01-01-2003, 08:05 PM

Most men in the last 40-50 years are total pussies... it's a fucking joke.

What's the difference between a man and a female in 2003?

the dick.

Oh wait, you a real man if you drive your manual honda civic.

Rose Crans · 01-01-2003, 10:13 PM

Hi I think that's from the building of the Empire State Building - the construction was documented with a ton of pics. I have a postcard book somewhere with this picture in it but here's a book that probably has it too:

Only during their breaks??? There are quite a few construction workers here that drink all day. But you should remember that beer is a basic food here in Germany

KRL · 01-02-2003, 01:01 AM

Fuck that shit makes me dizzy just looking at it.

Talking about heights, had a friend in the 80's who was into sky jumping and he had all these scars on his arms and I joked with him what'd ya do forget to where your shoot. What happened his shoot got tangled up and he only got partial effectiveness out of it but managed to land right into a forest with tall trees and the branches snagged him and saved his ass, but he got branch whipped like crazy.

Funny thing is he figured he was gonna die and he said time seemed to stop on the way down and he couldn't even remember going into the trees afterwards.

Another friend of mine who did high rise construction before he got into the broadband biz said he saw a guy slip on a job and went airborne and they could see his facial expression as he looked up and gave a goodbye wave.

Paul Markham · 01-02-2003, 05:03 AM

I'm terrified of heights. Used to have nightmares about falling.

When Eva and I went to Vegas she wento nt eh Ride at the top of the Stratosphere. I did not, would not even go to the edge, where the floor meets the window.

Yes I'm a pussy when it comes to heights.

hahmike · 01-02-2003, 05:15 AM

chodadog · 01-02-2003, 01:27 PM

I watched a documentary about these kind of guys a while back. Crazy stuff. They just walk along like it's no big thing, as if they were just walking along the street or something.

Pornwolf · 01-02-2003, 01:40 PM

That is real work. Pics like this remind me that no matter how hard I think I work it's nothing but a paid vacation compared to what these guys did!
