Narrative

Operator was dismounting a drill. As he put his left foot on the ground, it went into a void, or hole, in the bench causing his foot to turn toes up. This stretched the back of heel and back of calf. He still had his other foot and both hands on the ladder, preventing him from putting his full weight on his foot.
