No one knows who the subjects are. No one knows which photographer made it.
... This photograph "Lunch atop a skyscraper " was shot by ( despite the point of the video) Charles Ebbets. Several of the men have been identified.
True!

I enjoyed the video, which scares the hell out of me. But wasn't there some type of native American Indian tribe that excelled at working on sky scrapers with no fear of heights?
True!

YES!You are probably thinking of the shots of the aluminum eagle on the Chrysler building. This photograph "Lunch atop a skyscraper " was shot by ( despite the point of the video) Charles Ebbets. Several of the men have been identified.

Actually, I believe that incident was during the production of Harold Lloyd's " Why Worry" silent film. There is an interview with Lloyd by Kevin Brownlow in his book, "The Parade's Gone By" where Lloyd mentions this...When the crew dropped a dummy after shooting, it bounced off the platform, falling down to the street.
You're quoting facts from a blog named "messy nessy chic"? That's funny.
I don't know if I would say it was a gag more like a publicity stunt hanging infront of the police station or most read newspaper in the city.Houdini was a magician, it was a gag...........anybody ever wonder why he did that hanging upside down.?
OK........now THAT was funny.I don't know if I would say it was a gag more like a publicity stunt hanging infront of the police station or most read newspaper in the city.
not sure whey he was upside down, but I know whenever I am in a straight jacket I have a I have more incentive to get out of it when I am suspended over a shark tank and the rope attached to my handcuffed ankles is on fire
