They Threw Red Hot Metal Through the Air to Build This (Empire State Building, New York) #shorts - Video

They heated rivets in a coal furnace until they glowed red, then threw them through the air 300 meters above Manhattan. One man caught the burning metal in a bucket with his bare hands. 3,400 workers built the tallest building on earth in just 410 days with no safety harness and no net. The Empire State Building was finished ahead of schedule during the worst economic crisis in history.
