It's ok there's a occupancy law for every building and space in nyc .fdny do regular inspections especially on a building like the edge that's a iconic tourist hub.
Nyc buildings inspection enforcement is on point with such iconic tourist hubs .no one wants that fine or imagine the lawsuit ..so the property is thoroughly checked. NYC STAND STRONG.
Lol. We sat in my daughters back yard in a teeny tiny town i central Indiana and saw the same sun as these folks scrambling for rooftops....but ours was 100% TOTAL eclipse. It was pretty amazing.
That's one sketchy balcony for sure with all those people on it. It maybe designed for a load but was it actually constructed for that load...? I'll pass.
With the recent disasters we have been having lately I would not stand with a crowd of hundreds on a balcony that high up especially with the way that one is designed.
They should have played "if you get caught between the moon and New York City" during the eclipse! What a great day! Today made most feel very insignificant, highlighting the sad global fighting.
Jeremiah 10:2 “Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.”
This reminds me of 2012 movie scene where lots of people were crowded together like this and a terrible solar flare happen and fried everyone. I saw the solar eclipse in a pretty empty museum courtyard, it literally passed the sun within a couple mins. i acknowledged it and went on my business.
Isn’t dangerous like that? I would b not going standing there at the corner of a triangle balcony. Just like what happened to the other apartment those party people who got hurt when the balcony collapsed.
Did all the rats come out from there boroughs since it went dark for a moment? Did you guys scream in fear when all of a sudden rats popped out the gutters/ crevasses as soon as the moon covered the sun?
That balcony with that many people is kinda scary!!
I thought the same thing.
How much do you think all those people weigh?
Zombi movie
Zombie movie
@@bitinghairy8237
I would estimate at around 30 tons worth of people.
There is no way I would be out on that balcony with hundreds of people on it.
Ditto
Especially after they just had an earthquake!!
For real!😳
Hell no..
Never works out well in India.
I'm deathly afraid of heights, and that balcony gave me serious anxiety 😥😳
In my head are visions of sheep walking to the edge of a cliff . . . 😕
Du ma
That’s probably close to 25 tons of people. Or 55,000 pounds
In order to conquer ur fear of heights u just gotta jump off something that high with no parachute
@@RBeeBee Don't say that.
Everyone is talking about the balcony. LOL
As much as I trust modern architecture and engineering, I still would not want to be that high with that many people.
Over water at that. Nope
Only the "most trusting" people were on it. :
It's not so much the height as it is the cantilever that troubles me.
I came to watch the eclipse, but all I saw was a bunch of people
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
watched in in montreal
That looks SO precarious. PLEASE no more earthquakes...😬
Talking about earthquakes, look at the balcony at the beginning of the video, how much weight can that hold?
You haven’t seen nothing yet. It’s more to come!
This makes me feel lucky for what I have. A backyard.
Luke, Well said.
😂😂😂😂
Wanted to travel to nyc to watch the eclipse but I'm happy I watched it at a Montréal park and avoided the insane amount of traffic
No way in my right mind will step up there 👆🏾🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Got have drink first. An I don't drink like that I would need more than a glass of wine😂😂😂
Why would they build/design a balcony to be so terrifying?
If you are referring to the triangular "balcony", that is an attraction called "The Edge". No thanks with so many people!
@@karalynne7616 I agree. It's not for so many people.
It's ok there's a occupancy law for every building and space in nyc .fdny do regular inspections especially on a building like the edge that's a iconic tourist hub.
@rifaieolton8451 Oh I am sure it is technically safe & inspected. But I wouldn't feel comfortable with it so crowded 😕
To scare people
These people are out their minds
did anyone else look at this clip and yell NOPE 4 times??? OMG NOPE!!!
meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee
Ain’t no way in he** I would be standing on that balcony with all those people. It is a “no” for me!
I was in a field in Central Park all alone with my dog. That was pure bliss..
😂😂❤
If that balcony fails
This entire video gave me butterflies all over my body 😬
There is no way I would be out on that balcony it reminds me of that time the Dance Floor collapsed and killed a bunch of people at that wedding
I heard people were complaining about the helicopters blocking the view of the eclipse, so I hope those aerial shots were worth it
By the grace of God it feels good to be alive
Yikes...great now my palms are sweaty
Imagine the stench in that crowd
To Tom ZZ, It's open air. In an underground movie house, this would be different.

Dear LinDam 333. I'm sure you would love Alaska with its 12:01 pm. midday darkness that lingers -- huh -- for a few months!
@@eddyvideostar wow! That would be weird
I live in Western NY. No sidewalks or street lights 😎 or neighbors 🥰
Love it!!!
So not one clip of the Eclipse?😂 Jesus Christ
I went to Texas to view the total eclipse. Got some epic photos and great memories.
don't be scary New York City peace be with you!

The Edge is the attraction with triangular "balcony". Too many people at once for me, I agree!
Dear Dustoff. Definitely disconcerting: Doubts about design and concrete distortion from modern-day computer hacking.
How much weight can that cantilever hold?
Each time you hear the
word ‘ eclipse ‘ ~
Take a drink 🥃 🥃🥃
I value my liver and life too much.
Dear Mopmother, For eclipse day today -- cheers, lift, and quaff.
Tomorrow -- AA will be out of business!
I bet the engineer that built the balcony, his butt cheeks were squeezing together while everybody was out there😮
They ain't learned their lesson yet!!!!
With the recent disasters we have been having lately I would not stand with a crowd of hundreds on a balcony that high up especially with the way that one is designed.
I wonder how the pick pockets did?😂
🤩🤩🤩🤩
Hey man, is there a weight capacity on that balcony? Final destination.
I would say that’s close to 30 tons of people and a weight capacity of 35 tons
... snick
They should have played "if you get caught between the moon and New York City" during the eclipse! What a great day! Today made most feel very insignificant, highlighting the sad global fighting.
Jeremiah 10:2 “Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.”
Amen!!!❤
Can you imagine the kind of casualty it would be if that thing collapsed? Yikes The clean up would be devasting
They are not much closer to the sun then anyone on the ground. They aren't even on the path of total eclipse. Why bother?
To Tinman. Truer than true!
Crowds of people and Covid is still here
Ahhh yeah no thanks. Not today not any day.
Hell nah that's maximum capacity smh 🤦♀️
That's the Edge on Hudson yards ,100 floors. Awesome spot with friends!
Jokes on them we barely got a corner lol
Maximum weight capacity is...
You could barely tell the difference at 95%, I bet they were let down.😂
These are the same people the aliens Zapped in Independence Day lol
New Yorkers? Yeah right. More like tourist if you ask me. Not a single new Yorker on that balcony.
And nothing happened, literally. Just got a little dark. That’s it. Very disappointing
Massachusetts here and nothing changed at all
84% over Iowa. I made a pinhole box and took pix of the little dot of light inside. Didn't turn out too bad.
It’s night and day difference if you’re in the path of totality
Is that safe?
Looks like a nice sunny day
NYC is not 90% eclipse totality, maybe 20%.
Wanted to experience the balcony and watch the eclipse unfold but couldn't travel at that moment.
Gangs of New York watching together.
To Steve Mn 777, That would be interesting. Gangs and disheveled knaves would *draw the higher ire* from the upright and law-abiding.
I sure hope they are protecting their eyes with Solar glasses!
Them ppl didn't kno the balcony don't have legs, anyway they probably get a death wish 😮😅
🤩🤩🤩🤩
This reminds me of 2012 movie scene where lots of people were crowded together like this and a terrible solar flare happen and fried everyone.
I saw the solar eclipse in a pretty empty museum courtyard, it literally passed the sun within a couple mins. i acknowledged it and went on my business.
Why I am so scared to join these people always??😢😢😢
Love from Kumasi 🇬🇭🇺🇸
So much for Covid. Superspreader.
В Нью Йорке из-за зданий не видно неба!!😅😅
Its too crowded scary
Смелые люди, не боятся, что обвалится!!😮😮
I enjoy watching people on that platform viewing the solar eclipse.😊
Them peeps right there know the right peeps
I guess people don't work on Mondays anymore 😕....
Just an excuse to get drunk in the middle of the day
There have been cloudy days that have made the city darker. I think media over hyped this.
the most exciting part of the eclipse was picking out an outfit
Hopefully it cleared their minds of what is all wrong with New York.....
Isn’t dangerous like that? I would b not going standing there at the corner of a triangle balcony. Just like what happened to the other apartment those party people who got hurt when the balcony collapsed.
Sure lot people out there after Shakey shakey
Good thing the earthquake was last week!
Too many people on that ledge! Crazy!
Fenced in at that
Gee, too bad Windows on the World is gone.
Song and artist, please?
"Eclipse" by AWITW
Scary 😨
So, that much people called out of their jobs to watch an eclipse? 😊
How many smartphone camera sensors were fried.. 🤔🙄😱😳
Dear Argetech 56. Is this so? Links and data, please?
Pretty cool!
Nice view!
Why would I be out there ,watching what
Did all the rats come out from there boroughs since it went dark for a moment? Did you guys scream in fear when all of a sudden rats popped out the gutters/ crevasses as soon as the moon covered the sun?
Too much eclipse for today😂
Let the SICADAS show begins🎉🎉🎉
Holis , Hi 😊
That is so much money standing there. People have paid out their noses for certain places.
i did not want to see a bunch of random people literally nothing happened
Do people work anymore!?
No they get free government help remember?
This is America, hell no nobody works.
A break?
😂😂😂😂😂 work???
@@dustoff499 you live on mars.
Fill in the rest of this sentence..
If that whole platform fell…
World's newspapers headlines never forgotten.
Collapse waiting to happen

The edge (balcony) is not made by Boeing !!!
The first one was built by Tony Stark.
