Narrative

After completing a repair on the deep pit belt, EE was trying to release the clamps holding the belt in place. He got on the belt & released the clamps and the slack which was in the belt moved the belt forward & took him upside a roller which pinned him at the chest for about 1-3 min until a co-worker cut the belt and removed him from roller.
