Oh, no way! No way am I sitting in a car that’s getting hoisted to the top of a skyscraper. This is a Kissel being brought to the top of the Fifth Avenue Building in NYC as a publicity stunt.

Insane.
This is 53 stories but nobody is in the car.

Some people don't have the wring in their brain to be scared of heights. I read somewhere that American Indians from a certain tribe made great skyscraper works as they had no fear.

The Mohawk tribe (part of the Iroquois Confederacy). Known historically as "Skywalkers," Mohawk men were famously hired for high-steel construction in the late 1800s and helped build iconic NYC landmarks like the Empire State Building and the World Trade Center.
However, it wasn't that they were not scared, but were very disciplined and respectful of the height. They trained specifically to not fall. Which would not help me.

Thanks. Now I'm dizzy.

I don't know. The riding up in the old car using a 125 year old crane may be the scariest thing in this topic.

...well there was that stunt at the Empire State Building today.🫣

Yes, but the way the helicopter was filming it looked like they were 100 feet in the air.

Btw, there are two observation decks at the Empire State Building. Open air on the 86 floor and then 200 feet higher up on the 102nd floor. I've done both and the 102 is inside and still scary.
