BREAKING: Trump SoHo Collapse

A crane dropped a load at the Trump SoHo building this afternoon. One confirmed fatality. Just last Friday there were complaints to the building inspector about unsafe conditions. Someone’s getting sued back to the stone age.

More pics coming soon from our sELECTROclash reporter on the scene

Here we can see one worker who was saved from falling to his death by the safety net.  Another worker was not so lucky.

Mike Rowe from Dirty Jobs

I ran into Mike Rowe last night while attending a Fark party at the Patriot Saloon. He said he is in town to shoot an episode of Dirty Jobs where he is tasked with cleaning out water tanks atop a skyscraper going up near World Trade Center. Awesome!
