Still can’t believe I got to be part of a HUGE project like that. I’m a welder and I climbed things that were not meant to be climbed just to weld it all together. Such a awesome project to part of. Extremely thankful
thank you so much for this awesome building, you are one of the many people to help All of New York and maybe All of America never forget the gruesome attacks on 9/11 thank you.
It is a shame a lot of people look down on tradesman and do not appreciate the blood and sweat that goes into there job. This world would not be what it is without men like the ones in this video.
My grandfather Chuck Sky was a Mohawk Iron Worker From Kahnawake who worked on both trades centre buildings from the start in 1968 till it’s completion in 1973 along side his brothers. Iron working is a legacy career for us Iroquois peoples and we take much pride in the structures our brothers and sisters have built in Canada and the USA. My grandfather Chuck would always talk about the twin towers when I was a little kid and how proud he was of those buildings, in a way I’m thankful his passing came before 9/11 because I know in my heart he would have been so devastated to witness that day as I have. I have cousins who are iron workers to this very day and who rushed to NYC to help with the efforts afterwards and family members who worked on the new building at the remembrance site years later. New York holds a special place in my heart but I will forever be grateful and proud of my grandfathers contributions to that city, I also grieve and keep those who lost their lives on that day.
Just saw this building on my trip. It looks absolutely magnificent. R.I.P. to all the souls and the souls of loved ones who lost their life on 9/11/2001.
Chicago Laborers Union Local 4 here, You Iron Workers are brave as hell and I wouldn't have my career if it wasn't for you. Great work on the Building, it looks amazing. Pride not just in your work but it's your city and it's personal. If it were The Sears Tower, I'd feel the same as you. Thanks brothers
It's a genuine pleasure watching real men doing amazing things. My hat's are off to the guys who work their butts off, and take care of their families. Thank God for you all.
Tear jerker for sure, I am a Electrician here In Canada with the IBEW and I wish I could of come built that beast with my dear Neighbours.... Love my American Brothers an Sisters!! Our Hearts are with you's forever...
I love iron workers. They're nuts. But they're great. And yes, it takes all kinds of trades to put those buildings up - steamfitters, sheet metal workers, plumbers, electricians, elevator mechanics, control technicians, insulators, etc, etc, etc. Tougher and more dangerous work than law enforcement, firefighting, and most military jobs... and no one makes movies about them.
Someone defending themselves doesn’t need to drag people in other professions down. Yes, people in trades deserve more praise imo, but it doesn’t require you to talk down on law enforcement/firefighters/etc to do that.
fstraße I'm not degrading law enforcement or firefighting. It's statistically factual that construction is more hazardous. Timber falling, farming, long haul trucking, and commercial fishing are also more dangerous, as well.
When I tell you I teared up I teared up. No other city in America has been through more than NYC. These people are heros. It's Soo amazing how his father built one of the twin towers then it got destroyed then his son builds one. Passing on the history and building history it's amazing. I am so proud to be from this city. What a strong city NYC forever 💪🏾💪🏾🗽🗽
Great video , music is powerful . I’m a proud New Yorker from Brooklyn and I appreciate the men who built the Freedom Tower. It’s an incredible building. God bless America.
That would be gentlemen, really. Let's not water down their accomplishments by implying women had anything resembling an equal role in the hard work here.
These guys are awesome. Thank you, Time, for educating me about iron workers. I didn't know much about them but I definitely appreciate them a lot more now.
My family are all ironworkers... my dad, uncle, cousins, brother, brother-in-laws, my husband, more friends than I can count, and my sister owned a construction company (Union in Florida... not easy). They take dreams drawn on paper and turn them into reality. They truly are dream makers and touch the sky.
I love seeing people take pride in there trade. They have such passion for it and love. I have sadly forgotten what this feels like working at my regular job. Hopefully one day I can be as proud as them. Way to go fellas.
You realize that it was built in the 1970's, right? Some of the dudes who helped build the original towers were probably only in their late 40's during 9/11...
Greysen Gagne my dad was born in 71 and hes 47. That said, more like late 50s/early 60s for most depending on when they hopped on the job considering it took i beleive 13 years originally to build. Either way. Unless the workers on the original were already in thier 50s-60s/70s, most of the workers were still alive sadly :(
Great job guys! I feel blessed to be able to see the new building being built. I still remember the day it happened. I wanted to be there and help but i was only 16 and lived in Sweden. So i could only watch in dispare.
This has now made me realize these construction workers as unsung heroes. Before construction was another job but, most other jobs hardly compare when it comes to something as touching as the world trade center.
Thank you to those iron workers that did everything they could on 9/11 and to build that new landmark dedicated to all those lost. What admirable men and women they are.
...built on a tomb of the murdered. The twin towers were turned to dust in mid air. There was nO collapse. Beams turned to dust- and Dust was in free fall. There were no contents of the remains of 2, 110 story skyscrapers. Only dust
Everyone in New York commutes two to five hours a day. These guys work by the hour. They get a union rate plus vacation pay health insurance pension and more. If you don’t have a college education it’s like hitting the lottery. If these guys work ten hours a day and a handful of weekends they’re making over 200k a year.
Many people at the refinery make 180-200k a year, I chose not to be one of those because I actually want to spend time with my children. 150k is good enough for me lol
These ironworkers are all truly amazing people. I really appreciate the opportunity to hear about this chapter in the lives of these men, their WTC One chapter. I got so many questions though. So how do not fall? Does it make you feel like ... wobbly or out of balance to be that high up from the ground? Do you ever feel queasy? Does everyone wear safety harnesses? Has anyone ever fallen that you knew? I’m old now. I’ve been through a lot. No stranger to terrorism. No one is anymore I guess. Makes me sad too. A lot. Oklahoma City. Lower Manhattan. So I guess that’s probably why I don’t even like going inside buildings these days. So it’s cool to be able to see such an amazing achievement. Accomplishment. I mean lol I’m a wealth of useless (useful sometimes) knowledge yet I avoid multi story structures as if my life depends on it. They tear it down. You rebuild it. I think y’all should make more videos. Just anything. I like to hear their stories. THATS the good stuff. Thanks for sharing your remarkable stories. I’ll share this video. Live long and prosper.
I work in the hospitality industry, my father used to work for NASA doing welding and iron working, i have always viewed these people as fucking heroes, massive respect i feel for them, im even considering joining them, i just admire them so much.
The first time i ever saw whats involved to be an iron worker was back in 1997 at the Ekati Diamond Mine in the NWT Canada.Watching two workers trying to connect massive steel beams ,trying to line it up to insert the larger bolts,it takes brute force,no fear and determination.There the first to build the structure that supports the rest,many thanks...

I'm a J.I.W. originally Local 45/(now) Loc. 11 in Jersey the last 12 yrs. Dude was telling the truth that ery1 wanted 2 work there: 1. cuz work was slow & 2. cuz even the hardest brother's wanted 2b able 2 day they helped "re"build the towers! As proud as we r as IW.'s even those who didn't build it like myself am honored n proud that brethren IW's g.o.t it done! Unless u do it, you'll never know how much it takes 2 get a job like that especially finished & according 2 plan!! God bless you guys!!!
I was doing drugs smoking weed getting into trouble now I’m clean and this is gonna be my career my grandpa and dad were iron workers now it’s my turn.
People talking about how tradesmen are undervalued, people complaining how out of those under valued tradesmen that iron workers get all the glory. Jesus Christ WE APPRECIATE EVERYONE. Sometimes people aren't aware of what goes into a building. We're not all in the trade business and we're not all doing masonry or tile or iron, etc. Everyone chill. I appreciate what an American does for another American, or anyone for that matter. That's what/who I appreciate.
This is great job hard and dangerous but very unique i did iron work for 2 years and it really is a great joy when you start to finish the building there a no words for it you die and that same building will still be there as a part of you is beautiful
2:16 I’ve noticed how some New Yorkers and NJ’s use “ain’t” like how we do in Oklahoma and other southern states. It’s just something I find cool and another thing we have in common.
That's crazy for a father to put up 1 tower, it gets destroyed, so the son puts up the next tower. Dope
