## Narrative

Employee was operating an 80-foot High Reach Man Basket. The employee decided to travel across a shallow swale used to drain water. The front tires of the machine dropped into the swale, which catapulted the basket upward. The employee was thrown into the air then yanked back into the basket because he was wearing fall protection. He fractured his right leg.
