Window Washer: At Work Above the Clouds

by Keith Elliot Greenberg, Keith Elliot Greenberg

Meet Roko Camaj at the top of New York's tallest buildings,
the World Trade Center. He'll take you into his special steel mesh
basket more than 110 stories in the air. He'll give you a ride down
the outside of one of the towers and will explain exactly how he does
his job. You'll get to watch him work as you take in the incredible
view from more than 1,400 feet above the city!

Many people in our world face the unique demands of special
careers. Some work at jobs that protect us and our families from
danger. Others have learned skills needed to provide a special service
or perform in a special way. The Risky Business series gives
you an up-close-and-personal profile of people who do things most of
us would never dream of doing. As you read about them, you'll find
out what worries them and what excites them about their
jobs. You'll also learn how each person trained to become an expert
in his or her field.
