Scaffolding at One World Trade Center Fails, Traps Two Window Washers. Here's What Happened

All eyes in New York were once again glued to Ground Zero when two window washers hung perilously for their lives from the 69th floor of the newly opened One World Trade Center building.

Juan Lizama and Juan Lopez dangled from the scaffolding they were working on for an hour before they were finally rescued.

More than 100 firemen responded to the emergency call and began to assess how best to rescue the men. According to reports, the two best options to get the men to safety would be to attempt to pull the scaffolding back up to the roof of the building, or cut through the three layers of glass of the building windows and pull the men inside.
