How to Install an Escalator on the 101st Floor of America’s Tallest Building

Here we see an moving staircase being hoisted to the 101st floor of World Trade Center 1 . ( How did you think they got escalators up that high ? ) At first coup d’oeil , the dizzying view of this pic will make your encephalon injure .

Here ’s the thing : the picture , post by Reddit userJacknappler , is n’t what it seems . The escalator is n’t being lifted up to the building shown — that ’s WTC 4 . It ’s in reality on its way to the top of WTC 1 , which is where the photographer is stand . Even then , the maddeningly skew position make this image look more like an Escher drawing than a miracle of technology . [ RedditviaCheezburger ]
