    Did you know that the photographer’s legs are made of the same material as the beam he is on?

    That’s the guy that took the “lunch atop a skyscraper” photo, right?

    My dad has that photo, except without the steel beams, that the Salzgitter AG several of his ancestors worked in gifted his father (or grandfather, I am not quite sure).

    "Lunch atop a skyscraper" black and white photograph of eleven construction site workers sitting on a steel beam over the skyline of manhattan, 1932

    Like this photo but without the steel beams they are sitting on and a caption that says something to the effect of “what would they do without us?” I tried to find it on the internet but sadly couldn’t find it. Is it just me or do the seearch operators not work anymore with ddg?
