Grand Rapids city workers in high-angle rope rescue

The Grand Rapids Fire Department rescue team was called in when two workers became stuck on a lift high above the city hall. Luckily both workers were accustomed to heights as firefighter Jeff Lysiak hung from a rope, 10 stories up, while assisting the two stranded workers down from their perch. Lysiak said luckily neither man was panicking, so they could take their time with the rescue and do it right.
