This documentary reveals how the Empire State Building was constructed without safety harnesses, at a time when modern workplace protections didn’t exist. In the early 1930s, ironworkers balanced on narrow steel beams hundreds of feet above New York City, relying on experience, coordination, and sheer nerve to assemble the world’s tallest building. We break down how crews worked at record speed during the Great Depression, why safety regulations were minimal, and how Mohawk ironworkers became legendary for their fearlessness at extreme heights. From steel framing to rivet teams and fast-paced scheduling, this video exposes the dangerous reality behind one of America’s greatest engineering achievements — and the human risk that made it possible.
