Eleven construction workers in New York sit and eat lunch perched on a steel beam in 1932. One of the workmen, far right, is holding a bottle of whisky.

 
Back then, people just expected to have a certain number of workers die from accidents on the job. There are bodies entombed in some of the large concrete pours simply because it was considered too costly and time consuming to fish them out.
