See more at http://www.tacomanarrowsbridge.org This video is of the Galloping Gertie construction, when they built the bridge that collapsed in the wind. It is in color, and has no audio as it was shot back when that was not common. The clips are of ascending a towers & the towers going up, and if you look closely at the very top; you see how small the workers seem standing way up there (with no safety lines on them at all !). This movie is the first in a series of Galloping Gertie and it's replacement Sturdy Gertie bridge construction videos.
