## Narrative

Rock breaker was sitting in the middle of a pile of big rock (150 - 300 lb); had to climb over them to fill rock breaker. On the way back down rock pile began to slide causing me to lose my balance and fall on rock. The edge was sticking up like a wedge and hit me in the spine. I lay there about 10 to 15 minutes with breath knocked out of me before returning to the truck.
