Narrative

There were 2 employees working together to lower an 8 inch X 20 Foot pipe with a boom mucker. The injured employee was guiding the pipe as they were lowering it to the ground. The IE had his left hand on the pipe and the boom truck lowered the pipe at a rate faster than anticipated and it pinched his finger between the pipe and the clevis.
