Narrative

While on a transducer well the small casing (2 1/2"") got hung in the hole. A pipe wrench was placed above the driller's hand to help turn the casing past the hang-up and when the casing fell through the driller's hand was in a pinch point between the pipe wrench and the table of the drill.
