Alcides Moreno and his younger brother Edgar couldn't get a job in Ecuador so they moved to the United States and found work as window cleaners in New York. On the morning of 7 December 2007, they climbed to the top of New York's Solow Tower. The building is 47 storeys high and to clean it, the brothers had to make their way down the building using a 16 foot-high scaffold suspended from the roof. Alcides describes what happened next.
