Narrative

Crew was drilling in location where they couldn't quite level the drill. So when making steel connections the drillers helper was having to pull on the drill steel to get it to line up so they could make up. While he was pulling on the steel the driller lowered the steel to make the connection and at that time ee felt something pop in his right elbow.
