Afraid of heights?

Posted on July 27, 2011 | 1 Comment

A man hangs from a skyscraper in New York City. Date unknown. (via reddit)

Harold Lloyd

1923
“During the famous clock tower stunt, Harold Lloyd is not as far from the ground as he appears. The building on which he climbs was actually a fake wall constructed on the roof of an actual skyscraper and skillfully photographed to maintain the illusion.” – IMDB
