Daredevil Construction Workers Gallery
Jaw-dropping, historic photos showing workers who risked their lives daily decades ago when rules for construction workers were a lot more lax than they are today.
These historical images show hardworking men who earned a reputation for being daredevils as they were moving girders, riveting, painting or even just eating lunch way up high! They worked without, or with minimal harnesses, as they walked nonchalantly along beams suspended hundreds of feet above the street and swung on cables, so one step backward would have meant eternity!
