Acrobats Celebrate the Opening of the Empire State Building, 1931
People who have yet to visit the iconic skyscraper should know that the Empire State Building is an incredibly tall building. It is not at all ideal if you have vertigo or acrophobia. It actually held the title of the tallest building in the world until the late 1970s! However, these acrobats don’t seem to mind. This picture was taken as they celebrated the building’s opening in May 1931. You would not be able to convince us to do that, but they sure look graceful!
