Narrative

When the miner was descending from the motor grader, he had both hands on the side vertical railings, then he stepped down with his left foot onto the stirrup step. Then he attempted to place his right foot onto the next step. Missing the second step, the miner swung to his left and fell to the ground. While landing the miner's right foot was tilted inward.
