Narrative

Worker was assisting in removing a metal pole from the ground by wrapping a chain around the pole and attaching the opposite end of the chain to the skid steer bucket. The chain slipped from the pole causing the bucket to lunge upwards, where the worker had his hand, crushing his hand in between the under side of the lab shack and the bucket of the skid steer.
