I didn't realize at first, but I now see that she's wearing headphones. Pretty cool!

Lunch atop a Skyscraper, photo taken on September 20, 1932, of eleven ironworkers sitting on a steel beam of the RCA Building, 850 feet above the ground during the construction of Rockefeller Center in Manhattan. Yikes! :shock:

I always liked this picture, but never examined it closely.... Is that really a large bottle of alcohol in the last worker's hand? Double yikes!!
