Narrative

IE and another EE were inspecting The VSI crusher. EE was on top pulling on the handle and as the door lifted IE was helping by pushing on the bottom of the lid. When the door was partially open IE thought EE had control and quit helping and the weight was to much for EE to handle. The door slipped out of EE's hand and fell onto IE's right hand.
