“Like a spider climbing up to the tip of a twig, 46-year-old John B. Dearing last week crawled up to the very top of the Empire State Building’s needlelike television tower, pointed a rare 180°-lens camera earthward, and made the spectacular photograph above. Dearing’s camera, which took in everything from horizon to horizon, covered a radius of 50 miles in this picture. One of Dearing’s legs. . . was wrapped around a conically shaped lightning rod 1,472 feet above the street. . .
“Dearing, an RCA engineer who helped supervise the installation of the 222-foot antenna system, made his picture for Anaconda Copper Mining Company, which supplied much of the metal for the television transmission lines. His trip up the spire was hair-raising in more ways than one. Static electricity around the tower sometimes pricks the skin and makes the hair stand on end. To touch one of the pronged dipoles of the antennas in the wrong place would give him a severe burn. A slip would mean death. But Dearing has been up the tower about 300 times and by now he is nonchalant about it. ‘It’s much more dangerous to be a mountain climber,’ he says. Sometimes, when he is up on the spire feeling on top of the world, he rocks himself back and forth, giddily swaying with the tip of the tower like a monkey on a tree branch.” [From the accompanying article]

this photograph ran in LIFE magazine in my high school days and was a game-changer for me; my beloved Nature could be quite cruel. it turns out to be something of a set-up, but that doesn't change its impact. he also photographed the black-power salute of the '68 olympics in mexico city, another game-changer. i read today that mr dominis passed away on 12/30/13 at the age of 92
