US-ACCIDENT-OFFBEAT
Onlookers take cell phone pictures of stranded window washers hanging from scaffolding on the side of One World Trade Center November 12, 2014 in New York. Two window washers were rescued at the new World Trade Center Wednesday after the cable secured to their platform snapped and left them dangling 69 floors up for nearly two hours. Rescuers cut a window to reach the workers who clung to a platform suspended at a precarious angle at the south side of the building, a frightening 787 feet (240 meters) above ground at Tower 1 of the complex in lower Manhattan. Some 100 firefighters were involved in the complex rescue operation at the building, which at more than 1,770 feet is the tallest in the United States. AFP PHOTO / Timothy A. Clary
