Narrative

Miner was cleaning a roller shim for roller placement. He unhooked his lanyard to move to a new location and did not stay 100% tied off. He tripped and fell backwards from the platform to the ground 14'9"" below. The handrail had been removed to allow the roller installation. He broke both wrists and his left rib.
