Incredible colorised footage from 1929 of construction workers on the Chrysler Building in New York.

I’m just impressed that it has audio

If you wanted solid, definitive proof that the past did, in fact, happen, here it is.

I’m surprised the structure was able to support the weight of every set of BRASS FUCKING BALLS on all of those construction workers. Pre-safety gear/OCEA was wilding man.

The Chrysler Building had zero fatalities during construction. But the osha violations hurt my soul

i like how casually they all talk about falling like it’s an inconvenience rather than a deadly situation

Friendly note that if you listen, you can hear them refer to themselves as “local 60.”


These are union men.
