Window Washers Trapped As Scaffolding Hangs From WTC 1 - Live Feed
A day of contrasts: on one hand, the world just managed to land a human-created vessel on a comet. On the other hand, two window washers are hanging helplessly from the 68th Floor of WTC1.

"We had to trap some washer folk"
"Pull it."
-- Larry Silverstein (with 80 insurance contracts on the building)
Jump you fuckers [but take some bankers with you]. Take one FOR THE TEAM bitchez!
Clearly, we need more legislation!
Has anyone been watching out for any Israelis dancing around nearby?
Looks like my day wasn't that bad, after all.
They just built the damn thing.
How could the windows be dirty already?
But moar importantly, how come a billion dollar, 21st Century, poor substitute for an icon does not have a mechanized window cleaning system?
Because Obama?
What a fantastic distraction! I want to see the POTUS travel log to see if Barry was anywhere near the building shortly before this happened...
Whole nation is hanging by a thread. Is there anyone cares?
"And when the cable snapped on the window washers' scaffold, that is what caused the entire building to collapse. Similar to a pancake collapse, but this one is called the spaghetti collapse."
L. Silverstein
How the hack do they clean the windows with that building design. They balance the scaffold?
Can't clean it, bring it down!
If this is supposed to be a false flag then the oligarchs are really letting their game slip.
If they couldn't figure out how to make the window washing platform work for more than a month what else have they fucked up?
Tell me about it. I got caught napping at my desk, woke up to find this, and then knew all was well - for me at least.
The comet rocket is made in Germany. This WTC situation looks like the work of A(merican)DHD engineering.
I bet we had an automated enginneering solution as well.
But the Unions made sure that there would always be manned window washers that cleeaned the windows forever more.
If and when they get down, the NYC gun and badge thugs will shoot at them and hit passersbys, taze them, put them in a choke hold, pummel them, arrest them, sodomize them with a plunger stick, then ticket them for "loitering" and resisting arrest.

"Serve treason, and protect the corrupt."
Larry is truly truly truly the luckiest man alive. And his family as well. http://irishsavant.blogspot.ie/2011/11/lucky-larry-luckiest-man-alive.ht...
I dont need to read this shit on ZH...I have every fuckin channel already covering this event which is a diversion for the sheeps as the financial raping continues.
I SAID IT BEFORE AND I'LL SAY IT AGAIN. WE CAN SEND A ROVER TO MARS (MILLIONS OF MILES AWAY) HAVE IT SAMPLE SOIL, SEND US RESULTS, LAND A ROVER ON A MOVING COMET, BUT WE CAN'T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO GET AN ACCURATE GDP AND UNEMPLOYMENT NUMBER....SO MANY FUCKING MOVING PARTS I GUESS
One of the window washers recently had a Brazilian butt lift.
#KimKardashianSwampAss
You're missing the whole point.
Those 'window washers' are probably corporate spies who were trying to put miniature cameras & bugging devices on the windows to steal secrets.
OT
The rat shit plaguemeister, illegal alien Duncan's family is suing the hospital.
The cost of Barry's treason just keeps going up.
Court should be a hoot if reports of him lying about wheelbarrowing a relative to the hospital in Africa are correct.
He probably costed the hospital millions, almost killed two nurses, and his family is suing cause they couldn't save his poor ass?
Cry me a river.

the complete unwillingness to do what the majority of Amerians want, enforce immigration law, is dereliction of duty.
I can't figure out why they insist on doing it while engaging in some token deportations to piss off theLa Raza /pro-open borders crowd. Is it really about dem votes and cheap labor? If both parties are so corrupt they out to be proscribed.
We should be letting in all the foreign PhDs we can, but not the dishwashers and the Duncans. We don't need those guys. We have 15-20 million of them already and still it is not enough for La Raza.
Jackson Hearn wears panties??
I thought that panties were standard issue for those media types...metrosexuals and all.
DaddyO
Window washers = doing perilous work for low pay
Crooked currency fixers = doing no work at all for huge windfalls
Scathing parody video may signal the end of MSNBC:

It's very simple, the hallowed ground on which they built this new world order tower upon is CURSED! It shall be a haunted monument inside it's walls and outside it's false facade of freedom from here to kingdome come!
Sins of the oligarchs!
SINS OF THE OLIGARCHS!

BEWARE!
If anything could be haunted, it would be the White House and Congress by the Founding Fathers...
That's why I don't bekieve in ghosts...
A window washer was rescued last night on "The Flash". The Flash's first name is Barry. Coincidence? I think not
I hope that rig doesn't take out a load-bearing window and cause the structure to collapse at near free fall speed into its own footprint - rooftop first.
Set a few random fires and they'll be down in a jiffy.
tripping off thermite on the way down LOL
Never has the truth of sarcasm been so poignant, dreadful and sorrowfully stated without the weeping of the masses in understanding deceitful lies.

Someone check the gold vault in the basement. There is a gold vault in the basement isn't there? What are all those unmarked trucks doing driving out of the service tunnel?
That's why bankers should wash their own windows.
They can only engage in risk free activities. So unless the Fed installs a safety net, they no can do...
5 points on the Dow for every window that gets broken on the way down if the scaffolding falls.
"Cat stuck in tree, more news at 6pm." Hard hitting journalisn right here.
And the curse of WT1 begins...
As a former communications tower climber, I can safely say: fuck that.
Have they ruled out terrorism yet?
I suggest a thorough check of the sidewalk beneath for any suspicious passports.
Going need to have the TSA sexually molesting people before they board any window washer carts in the future. Will also need to irradiate them as well.
An American, not US subject.
"Sorry, for security purposes no snow globes are allowed to travel on any window washer cart. Please deposit them in the provided receptacles."
That job would seriously suck.
Some asshole is likely watching them through the window sipping on a coffee.
yes, and pointing at a corner saying "you missed a spot".
LOL!!!! +1
Eating Pastrami on rye, bagel with a schmear of cream cheese, and a
stickle of a deli pickle.
I am willing to bet one asshole was doing something like this. Rather having a beverage or finger food. It just fits.
That is truly sick, buzz.
So, why didn't I think of that?
Lots of Obamaphones and other "bread"...this must be the "circuses"...
Barry's on the first hole of the day but he's said to be receiving a blow by blow account via a live hook up
A world full of technology, yet, we still need two dumbasses to go clean windows 100 stories up...
Must be a window washer union. That explains most of the story right there...
Robots are afraid of heights
Good News!!!
Applications are being taken for WTC window washer positions!!!
Doing God's work...and God ain't happy.
Karma
I hope they are OK
However, I think the site is tainted. Some may think it is superstition and it may well be, but we'll see what time brings forth.
Haunted? God, I'd love to believe that.
Bullish for November unemployment numbers.
fuck ain't rocket science break the window from the inside throw them a rope and pull them in, how fucking hard is that?
The firefighters had to loot the office first.
Pressurized building - break out a window carefully.
Or why not get one of those Cessna pilots who demonstrated such uncanny WTC-related skills on 9/11 to rescue them? Some of them are still alive you know, back in Saudi.
That window might be holding up the joint.
You never know.
In NYC, the laws of physics can be bent depending on how much terrorism insurance you carry.

Everything starts to drop when you end QE ! (stocks, window washers, my pants ) C'mon yellen, you soggy old hag, we need more FIAT to fuel " the Bubble " !
Put Jamie Dimon under the scaffolding and let it rip. Sorry big guy.
This could be Jamie's Christmas card shoot. Just boost him up to the scaffolding with a racket and some tennis balls and let it rip. That would make a swell Christmas card back...drop
I hope that doesn't cause the building to collapse into it's own footprint.
Dang it every one beat me to the 9-11 jokes!
I guess soiling panties passes for shit my pants these days. Candy ass MOFO - man up
It's an Omen of an impeding market crash.
very glad they're safe, for sure, but...
http://www.ny1.com/content/news/218787/window-washers-rescued-from-1-wtc...
They couldn't be illegal immgirants could they? Dunno their pay rate, but hear its often 35+ -really, no 'Americans' are willing to do this work.
Sigh.
The architects should be the ones cleaning the windows. It would be so much safer and better if they designed features to get the windows washed!
those are two dumbass window cleaners.
Brand new week old cable. Nice. And the comet story is complete bullshit.
I guess Silverstein had a dentist appointment at that time.
This will be later recalled as a terrosim plot that the Government stopped.
