Wrecking Crew

High above the streets of the city, Matt Carney's wrecking crew risks their lives demolishing buildings. Matt's old pal Duke Mason is an ace wrecking ball operator, but when they both fall for pretty Peggy Starr, conflict arises. Labeled a "jinx" after a tragic accident on the job site, Duke takes off, abandoning both his work and Peggy. Before Matt and Peggy can marry, a wall collapses, leaving Matt fighting for his life. Duke learns of the catastrophe and races back to the wrecked building. Putting his own life on the line, he ascends the crumbling walls, bringing with him Matt's only chance for survival.
