Описание: Before cranes and hydraulic lifts, someone had to climb to the top of New York City's tallest steeples, smokestacks, and skyscraper spires — by hand, with rope, and nothing below them but open air. Steeplejacks were the most dangerous profession in early American construction, scaling church steeples, factory chimneys, and the ornamental crowns of Manhattan's first skyscrapers using wooden ladders, rope rigging, and iron nerve. They painted, repaired, and inspected structures that no scaffold could reach, working in wind and weather at heights that killed without warning. NYC's first steeplejacks built their trade before safety regulations existed, before workers' compensation was law, and before anyone thought to ask how they planned to come back down.
