Описание: This documentary reveals why skyscraper construction was once America’s deadliest job, claiming countless lives during the early 20th century building boom. Long before safety regulations, workers balanced on narrow steel beams hundreds of feet in the air with no harnesses, helmets, or fall protection. We break down how extreme heights, brutal schedules, unstable equipment, and minimal oversight made falls, crushed limbs, and fatal accidents disturbingly common. Ironworkers, riveters, and laborers accepted deadly risk as part of the profession, driven by economic desperation and pride in their craft. Using historical records and firsthand accounts, this video exposes the human cost behind America’s iconic skylines — and the dangerous reality that built them.
