@@torquemada3273 Golfers, Tennis Pros, ect may not necessarily risk their lives per sa But there is a 'constant pressure to achieve ' so as to be worthy of that pay scale . 'Constant practice '. One has to constantly practice at their sport , and the pressure can be overwhelming. There's a reason why athletes get paid in the millions.

They had a huge job moving all the steel from the pile and sorting it then cutting it up and shipping it all over the world to be recycled. It must have been an amazing feet. Then to work on the Freedom Tower,.. wow.
