You missed the freakiest one: The first person killed during the course of building Hoover Dam was J.G. Tierney. Mr. Tierney drowned on December 20, 1922, while surveying in the waters of the Colorado River. Exactly 13 years later, on December 20, 1935, the last man who died was Patrick Tierney, his son.

I’ve been all over the Dam from top to bottom. Inside and out. You left out the most incredible fact about it….it leaks. In the inside of several of the lower floors, water runs down the walls and gets collected. It’s been leaking from day one and when your on very bottom floor, the leaking is serious and will make anyone nervous, but it gets collected and gos somewhere. Engineers have told me the leaking is controllable and not to worry, but it’s utterly fascinating and totally terrifying.

I remember learning this one watching a documentary about the construction of the HD: "One of the first projects on which hard hats were made available to all workers was the construction of the Hoover Dam, on the border of Nevada and Arizona, between 1931 and 1936. The initial protective hats were worn by high scalers- workers that were suspended from cables and used jackhammers to remove rocks from the cliffs. High scalers created their own head protection by taking a cloth hat, dipping it into tar and letting it harden in the sun. The homemade protective hats proved successful in protecting the workers from falling rocks. Even though some high scalers wearing the hats were hit so hard their jaws were broken, they did not suffer skull fractures." -Luke M. snell

Another few fun facts It was actually 112 that died but there was 2 records. On and off record. On record meaning they died on site. Off record meaning they succumbed to their injuries off site and if I recall 200 died off record. Electricity is actually not the reason why the dam was made. Main priority is water regulating between states, Electricity is secondary.
