Extreme heights never bothered me in my younger years. But that's changed with time...and not sure why. Now I can't even climb a 30ft ladder to clean my house gutters. Perhaps it's the realization at 60 I don't bounce as well as I did in my 20s. No longer 10ft tall and bulletproof. Hats off to these fearless guys who do this kind've worked everyday - truly amazing. May you all stay safe and return home to your families each and every night.

They are truly the men who build this country and in the worst conditions. Bad conditions for todays generation, is an office with no expresso machine ! 🇺🇸

@@marascomedywig5350 Well, harness or not, the work these men do IS a big deal. Heights, weather and extremely hard work. I respect that. I’ve been a firefighter for 20 years and wouldn’t trade jobs with these guys.
These guys deserve a lot of credit! This type of work is not for the faint of heart. Physically difficult and dangerous. I couldn't do it. Bravo to them! 👏 Go Philly! 👍
Not much physically. Cranes and other equipment lift the steel. More of being comfortable with working and keeping clear mind while dealing with height.
Did exactly this a long time ago. When I was a greenhorn the men in this trade, treated me like a man. I was cocky, and this really helped me grow up fast. Well done men, we'll done. I think of my uncle who put 46 years in this trade, and he never lost a man on the job. The men referenced my uncle as the "Legend".🍁🍁🍁

@@colto8284 You know I had to laugh at your comment because I'm a retired union carpenter and honestly I know that they are hated by most of the other trades just because they'll do anybody else's job as long as they don't get caught.

And we would do everything possible to make sure if it was happening to any trade we would let one of their business agent know .
I used to work for a company setting steel, but it wasn't nowhere near as high up, it takes a special person to do this job, my hats off to these brave men building our country!
My girlfriend's uncle and his wife are iron workers. They are never home but i think thats where all the feminist are at. At HOME where its not too hot or too cold and nobody is yelling at them.

Same with some human toilet power tripping building inspector who cant wait to shut down an entire project. Lots of pig manure here in Winnipeg. Google WINNIPEG BUILDING INSPECTORS FIRED.
@Bob George They own company's and supply jobs, professional athletes don't supply anyone with a job in most cases. I was a self employed brick mason for 12 years and I'll tell you now I'd rather work for a rich person than a poor person any day of the week.
majic 44 the danger of a job doesn't always add up to more pay. Fighter pilots risk their lives just flying a fighter jet alone trading missiles with an enemy fighter. A second lieutenant makes about $35.000 per year for much more skilled work in the sky and much more danger.They are all college graduates. These high iron workers are 'on the job trained'.Prior to doing high iron work they may have worked at a gas station or been a farm hand. They did not prepare for this work. They joined the iron workers union, got assigned to a project and worked under a supervisor. At best they work part time from project to project. Professional athletes don't negotiate their pay. Suits, commonly called sports attorneys, do all their negotiating. The athlete plays basketball and his 'suit' negotiates his pay and benefits. The player, often a young talented black kid, wouldn't stand a chance in the board room trying to negotiate his own pay against five corporate attorneys, whose only job is to see that the player gets as little of the clubs money as possible.

Extraordinary men. Love to see some of those too-wealthy CEO's doing that. The CEO's take the credit for everything but happily forget who really builds those big structures.
Respect for all the union brothers and sisters out there! Highly skilled, highly trained workers build this country! Zero tolerance for corruption in the USA 🇺🇸 Oath Keepers and Freedom Fighters unite!
People gotta quit throwing the "sisters" in there just to be politically correct. I don't see any women in this video and I've never seen any women on any of these construction jobs I've been on. I get that there's 8 women out there doing it, but I doubt they'll be offended if you just said brothers.
It's funny though man because the party behind Oath Keepers is the same party that pushes right to work laws, wants to cut the Davis Bacon act, wants to do away with Project Labor Agreements, weaken the NLRB and so so many more anti labor and anti worker positions. Educate yourself man. Seriously. If you want strong worker protections and strong unions the Republican party is not it.
Respect doesn't come near to how astounded I am to the bravery of steel workers, I take my hard hat off to these men, and I thank God that none of them came to any harm while building our amazing cities....
I'm a retired member of Local 401. I loved being a member where the men were genuine and trustworthy. I am still proud of my/our Local 401 and it's members. I connected for T. Lindstrom mainly. Went in "the hole" in Aug. 1989 (30 feet) and lived to tell a/b it. Spent 9 weeks in skeletal traction.... then retirement. After my recovery I went to college then grad school. So the folks who think IW's are dumb are surely mistaken. They are brave and smart. Long Live Ironworker's Local 401 and the men/women who build America.
Mikes channel Ok your imaginary god can bless these men but ignore two million plus children that starve to death each year, incredibly ignorant you are.
If God is not real then why is it every time people have to come out the woodwork and take time to comment how he isn't real?? Do you stalk down people who mention bigfoot and comment every time how he's not real? I doubt it. Besides, look who has 60 plus likes, and look who has 2. I think you're so angry with God because you have a small pecker. Why don't you go help those 2 million starving children then? People always point out "but what about the suffering??? Waahhhhh". If everything was perfect then we would be in heaven jackass. That comes later. Well, for some if us anyways

Climbing a Colum like that, day in and day out is pure upper body strength and a shit load of confidence, that once you take that first step, you can make it too the top. Good job. R D (retired) local 25 Detroit
There's not enough money in the world to pay me to get me to do this....!
Respect!!!
As a retired union electrician it has always been a pleasure and an honor to work with union ironworkers.Highly skilled and extremely productive.Much love and respect for the union ironheads!
Same here, LU3, worked with them a few times, no joke. Much respect for the job they do.
As a non union carpenter, i can redpect the balls of an ironworker, but fuck unions.
👍👍👍👍👍
Unions are destroying this country. A supervisor here at the nation's largest employer of veterans. Trust me they only protect the shit bag employees. Great 50 years ago. Destroying the country today

It’s making me feel strange and I’m sitting on a chair.How these guys do it week in week out you have my total respect
I´m in my couch , much safer than a chair.

These guys have nerves of steel. It's unreal how they just go about their day in those heights and conditions. Hat off to you men.
Hard hats on site please 🙏
I was going to apply for this job once, but had to leave on a trip. I remember now, I left Nopesville on the 3:15 to Fuckthatastan. My sincere respect to these incredible, hardworking men. They are truly the men who build this country and in the worst conditions. Bad conditions for todays generation, is an office with no expresso machine ! 🇺🇸
The workers in the video look relatively young, I know plenty of “millennials” who are hard working blue collar decent people. I hate when people use blanket statements to over generalize shit.
This is no big deal
They are wearing safety harnesses so there covered
Piece of piss
@@marascomedywig5350 Well, harness or not, the work these men do IS a big deal. Heights, weather and extremely hard work. I respect that. I’ve been a firefighter for 20 years and wouldn’t trade jobs with these guys.
lol
@@marascomedywig5350 You have no clue
These guys deserve a lot of credit! This type of work is not for the faint of heart. Physically difficult and dangerous. I couldn't do it.
Bravo to them! 👏
Go Philly! 👍
Not much physically. Cranes and other equipment lift the steel. More of being comfortable with working and keeping clear mind while dealing with height.
@@jheiny1231 Sorry but the VAST majority of men in America cannot scale an iBeam, they might THINK they can but their core says otherwise.
@@cardbored_ there isn't much scaling nothing . Safety says so
@@jheiny1231 i’m not even sure I’m arguing with you at this point because the very beginning of the video shows a guy scaling the beam 🤦🏻♂️
@@cardbored_ I work construction. Am around them all day and everyday. My dad and father in law are retired iron workers. Believe me. I know
Did exactly this a long time ago. When I was a greenhorn the men in this trade, treated me like a man. I was cocky, and this really helped me grow up fast. Well done men, we'll done. I think of my uncle who put 46 years in this trade, and he never lost a man on the job. The men referenced my uncle as the "Legend".🍁🍁🍁
Respect to those guys. Thank you for all you do
Man these guys are nothing but bad ass. Much respect to them all
Balls of steel
So you think death is beautiful
That's insane ...now way

I'm in the trades. I've seen these Brothers at an eye level. But me on the inside 👀 looking out the window. Much respect to the Iron workers.
I have nothing but respect for men like these guy’s 👍
I'm a retired Journeyman Ironworker. Getting that monthly pension check along with my social security check sure does make my retirement easier. I miss being around my brothers.
My father was an ironworker, makes me proud every time I tell someone that
With all due respect, YOUR FATHER HAD BALLS!!!! 🤔

You know I had to laugh at your comment because I'm a retired union carpenter and honestly I know that they are hated by most of the other trades just because they'll do anybody else's job as long as they don't get caught.
I had to edit this just to say I was not a neither was my son one of the Carpenters that would ever do another trades job. And we would do everything possible to make sure if it was happening to any trade we would let one of their business agent know .
Two dudes earning every cent of their paychecks. respect.... stay safe
I used to work for a company setting steel, but it wasn't nowhere near as high up, it takes a special person to do this job, my hats off to these brave men building our country!
I look forward to feminists claiming 50% of the positions there, lol
My girlfriend's uncle and his wife are iron workers. They are never home but i think thats where all the feminist are at. At HOME where its not too hot or too cold and nobody is yelling at them.

I did see an Instagram post lately that was a photo of a warning sign on a site building a bridge, the original sign said "caution men working on bridge" someone had crossed 'men' out and put 'people' I did comment asking how many non-men were working on it. Ok, the sign could have said people but really?!
Complete respect for these guys!
Mir wird nur vom zuschauen schwindelig. Respekt 🙏
I used to do that, many years ago when there was talk of safety harnesses like they are wearing, but I never even saw one. I must have been insane.
And I thought that was something you only see in black and white photos from the 1930s.
No safety harnesses in the 30s.....

Every professional athlete should watch this video before they demand how much money they "think" they are worth!!
Construction is one of the most dangerous jobs in the world
Same with some human toilet power tripping building inspector who cant wait to shut down an entire project. Lots of pig manure here in Winnipeg. Google WINNIPEG BUILDING INSPECTORS FIRED.
@Bob George They own company's and supply jobs, professional athletes don't supply anyone with a job in most cases. I was a self employed brick mason for 12 years and I'll tell you now I'd rather work for a rich person than a poor person any day of the week.
majic 44 the danger of a job doesn't always add up to more pay. Fighter pilots risk their lives just flying a fighter jet alone trading missiles with an enemy fighter. A second lieutenant makes about $35.000 per year for much more skilled work in the sky and much more danger.They are all college graduates. These high iron workers are 'on the job trained'.Prior to doing high iron work they may have worked at a gas station or been a farm hand. They did not prepare for this work. They joined the iron workers union, got assigned to a project and worked under a supervisor. At best they work part time from project to project.
Professional athletes don't negotiate their pay. Suits, commonly called sports attorneys, do all their negotiating. The athlete plays basketball and his 'suit' negotiates his pay and benefits. The player, often a young talented black kid, wouldn't stand a chance in the board room trying to negotiate his own pay against five corporate attorneys, whose only job is to see that the player gets as little of the clubs money as possible.
real country Ironworkers deserve a great pay all the other trades depend on them .... u call 6six bankruptcy smart ? That guy inherit almost 500million from his dad now bill gates yes is a smart guy
Some brave dudes right there. They deserve every penny they make and more.
You couldn't pay me enough!!! They do it like its no big deal. Much respect to these hard workers!!
Hero's if it were not for these amazing brave men Feminists would not be able to live in a tall building !
If it weren't for mothers that brought up such men we wouldn't be watching, who's going to nurse these day laborers when they fall ill,
I was doing this in Sydney Australia in the 80's. No harnesses, just your strength and courage.
I am getting fainted just by watching the Video. Great Job Sir.....Highly Appreciated👌👍🙏
You sad little man making up stories
This is not 1919 lol 😂
@Telefonjoker Tell me how I didn't?
@buggeroff I held on upside down welding beams in Sydney in the 80's. Now FUCK OFF, I saw many mate's fall.

Never in a million years!!! Top respect to these amazing lunatics 👍👍👍👍

Those are one special breed of men that can do this type of work and also the strength they have to is unreal, God Bless them all 💪💯👍🙏🙏
All I can say about these Men are they are the Fabric of Generations that built this Country and their Hardwork and Skills should be Honored.
I cleaned the gutters out once on my ranch home.....
Just once ?
@@deadreckoning4868 Yes just once, rumor has it to THIS DAY they are still clogged up. Now my CURRENT home is 3 stories, and I only did it once, MAYBE that is why there are TREES growing out of the gutters. Calling in the pros this spring.

Honestly, I don’t know how they do this type of work. I crap my pants when I go up 2 rungs on a step ladder to change the light bulb on the front porch. Much respect to these guys!
Extraordinary men. Love to see some of those too-wealthy CEO's doing that. The CEO's take the credit for everything but happily forget who really builds those big structures.
Respect for all the union brothers and sisters out there! Highly skilled, highly trained workers build this country!
Zero tolerance for corruption in the USA 🇺🇸
Oath Keepers and Freedom Fighters unite!
People gotta quit throwing the "sisters" in there just to be politically correct. I don't see any women in this video and I've never seen any women on any of these construction jobs I've been on. I get that there's 8 women out there doing it, but I doubt they'll be offended if you just said brothers.
Corruption is what they do best
It's funny though man because the party behind Oath Keepers is the same party that pushes right to work laws, wants to cut the Davis Bacon act, wants to do away with Project Labor Agreements, weaken the NLRB and so so many more anti labor and anti worker positions. Educate yourself man. Seriously. If you want strong worker protections and strong unions the Republican party is not it.
Just kickin ass. As former carpenter my hats off to these MEN!! Can't fully express the tremendous respect I have for anyone doing ironwork. 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Without bad-ass people like this, our world wouldn't be able to enjoy simple things.
These gentlemen are Gods...
Well done, stay safe everyone!!!
Respect doesn't come near to how astounded I am to the bravery of steel workers, I take my hard hat off to these men, and I thank God that none of them came to any harm while building our amazing cities....
These guys are part of the real hero's in this world.. what would we do without these guys
First imagine doing this long before OSHA.
Also how do they climb while carrying their huge balls?
Yet another "huge balls" comment. Congrats on your originality dumbass.
That A stands for stupid
Safety guy can climb up seee how there doing
Don't brag, man. There are no huge balls.
Move you're ass that's how Iron on the hook⚒️⚒️⚒️⚒️🇺🇲🇺🇸
I was hanging onto my recliner for dear life just watching this.
I'm a retired member of Local 401. I loved being a member where the men were genuine and trustworthy. I am still proud of my/our Local 401 and it's members. I connected for T. Lindstrom mainly. Went in "the hole" in Aug. 1989 (30 feet) and lived to tell a/b it. Spent 9 weeks in skeletal traction.... then retirement. After my recovery I went to college then grad school. So the folks who think IW's are dumb are surely mistaken. They are brave and smart. Long Live Ironworker's Local 401 and the men/women who build America.
God bless these men !
Lord keep them safe !!
God? Or a well tightened harness?
Mikes channel
What keeps them safe are OSHA and safety regulations... dipshit
Mikes channel Ok your imaginary god can bless these men but ignore two million plus children that starve to death each year, incredibly ignorant you are.
If God is not real then why is it every time people have to come out the woodwork and take time to comment how he isn't real?? Do you stalk down people who mention bigfoot and comment every time how he's not real? I doubt it. Besides, look who has 60 plus likes, and look who has 2.
I think you're so angry with God because you have a small pecker. Why don't you go help those 2 million starving children then? People always point out "but what about the suffering??? Waahhhhh". If everything was perfect then we would be in heaven jackass. That comes later. Well, for some if us anyways
Angels in the sky's fear nothing much respect without you nothing would grow. ❤️
OMG I am clinging onto my office chair for dear life !!!!!!!!! Respect for Ironworkers !!!!!
These guys got balls of steel I could never do this.
Imagine how scary it was for the iron workers who built the Empire State Building in 18 months during the Great Depression who didn't have any of the safety harnesses/practices that we see today 😬
Seen photos of a dozen of them sitting on a beam 1,000 feet up, smoking, bullshitten and eaten lunch! lol
AND they had any random regular street shoes, not construction shoes made for harsher stresses and non-slip soles
Those men built America
These guys are of a unique breed. They are brave and as tough as the steel they erect. Witness the backbone of America
Can’t believe this just popped up. I live and work in Philly. These guys got stones. God bless and stay safe and thank you. I may not like unions but it’s unions that keep these people safe and insured and well paid
Forget the executives the bankers and politicians these guys deserve a huge around of applause. I don't have the guts to do this job.
The way he climbs up there in the first place is most impressive. Its like watching a videogame character shimmy up a drainpipe
