Mt Rushmore is said to be built by a father and his son
Swinging down on ropes
Using dynamite and a hammer and chisel
Uh, actually, NO, nobody said that. Wikipedia says that “Between October 4, 1927, and October 31, 1941, Gutzon Borglum and 400 workers sculpted the colossal 60-foot-high (18 m) carvings.” So, yeah, it’s “said” to be done by just a few more people than him and his son. I guess his son (Lincoln Borglum, named by Gutzon after his favorite President!) took charge of completing it after Gutzon died in 1941. It’s kinda sad that he never saw it completed, I think.
