TIME magazine --- Two window washers were rescued from a scaffold whose cable snapped Wednesday afternoon high above the ground outside 1 World Trade Center in New York City.

Rescue workers were able to save Juan Lizama, 41 of New Jersey and Juan Lopez, 33, of the Bronx shortly after 2p.m. ET after a rescue team cut through glass windows of the 1,776-foot tower and pulled the two veteran window washers through the hole. According to CNN the two were taken to Bellevue Hospital to receive treatment for mild hypothermia upon their rescue.

The cable snapped around 1 p.m. due to a “scaffolding malfunction,” a spokesman for the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey told reporters. FDNY first-responders arrived at the skyscraper after workers became trapped on scaffolding more than 60 floors above the ground.

GILBAKKA'S COMMENT: Window washing on super tall structures is a very hazardous occupation. My hat off to the workers.

that's good, I like it

yuh know

no wonder something went wrong! Two Juans dont make it right!

Scariest photo I saw was an iconic one of a few workers having lunch sitting on a steel beam whilst building the empire state bldg.

 Gibakka, I saw this unfold. It was very scary to watch.  I work not far from there.  Where I sit I get a good view of WTC.

The Mexicians take the jobs that most so called American turn their nose up at or think it is beneath them.

Kudos to the hard working Mexicans.
