A daredevil and award-winning cinematographer provided answers to a sky-high spectacle that was captured on camera at a high-rise building in Lower Manhattan.

"That's my apartment that he just ran over," Phil said.

At the time, Ljung, an award-winning cinematographer and director, was working on a project across the street in a building."To me it didn't look like he was in distress at any time, he looked fairly comfortable out there," Ljung said.

He explained that he is in the waterproofing business and was checking things out before meeting an inspector there about removing a sidewalk shed. He told Richardson that he's done this dozens of times, with and without safety gear, and that this time he was not harnessed. Smizaski said that if he had on safety gear while jumping like he did, the act would have been more dangerous and would have pulled him down.
