I'm near the top of the Brooklyn Tower of the Manhattan Bridge, I've forgotten the exact nomenclature layout and orientation of the cables but I'm on the south most outer cable, fall to the outside, its 330' feet until you hit the water.. fall to the inside splat on the roadway 150 feet below...

Before those nitwits knocked those two buildings down.. we used to sometimes grab a BEC sandy, or bagel and a thermos of coffee and trot up to the top, and have a nice breakfast watching the sun come up over NYC...

With the exception of working in the sandbox for about 5 years, my whole career has been on the big suspension bridges in the northeast US....

All the major bridges around NYC, Philly, the few over the upper Hudson..

I guess it was a small niche career..... I'm hanging up my hardhat soon....
