## Narrative

A maintenance employee was standing on a temporary work platform, four feet off of the ground, cutting bolts loose from a bracket that was holding a 10"" poly pipe elbow. As he cut one of the bolts the torch flashed, startling him and he jumped off of the platform. As he landed on the concrete floor, his ankle twisted sideways, causing a fracture.
