At only a little over four minutes in length, you can only assume that the version of this film I saw was truncated from the original. It lacks opening credits and is just too short. The film stars familiar Roach characters of the day...Harold Lloyd, Bebe Daniels and Snub Pollard.
Harold and his girl are walking by a construction site and take a seat. Unfortunately, it's on a girder and it's soon raised high on the building being constucted. A jerk worker (Pollard) grabs the girl off the girder and soon gets into a fight on the girder with Lloyd. It all looks insanely dangerous due to a site gag where you THINK they are hundreds of feet off the ground but aren't...something employed later in "Safety Last" as well as a few Laurel & Hardy films by Roach (such as "Liberty").
Overall, it is really difficult to score this one since there is so little to it. Worth seeing if you are a die-hard Lloyd fan...otherwise, I'd skip it.
