## Narrative

While pulling off 2 barges to drop in Cora's fleet, employee had trouble with a coupling wire. He was pulling on the wire while the other deckhand was beating on it with a sledgehammer.  When that did not work to free the wire, he grabbed a bar and tried to pull up the tight wires.  As he stood up he then felt a pinch on his left lower side around his hip.
