Amazing Photos

That top one is a classic! But I've never seen the others before. They sure don't build things like they used to, in part because the workers aren't what they used to be
I get the heebie jeebies just looking at those pics. I don't mind heights, but I hate edges.
Those photos clearly show the workers had more confidence than common sense.
Still cool to see though!

It's a bit of a tradition in New York for the iron workers to not tie in. I saw a documentary on the building of the new world trade center and even on that building, they were not tied off. I was really surprised to see that with all of the OSHA regs that there are now. They would not have fallen as far as those guys on the Chrysler building or the empire state building since they deck the floor below as they hang the steel for the next one up, but it's still far enough for OSHA.
Like was said, more bravado than common sense.
Jaws in Maui?
Wait...can't be, he's going left and Jaws is a huge right. Where is this?
