EE rolled onto their belly to descend the ladder, and in the process, their legs and body fell from the opening/ladder, EE grabbed onto the ring to keep themselves from falling and loaded their shoulder at an awkward angle with their body weight. EE immediately experienced a burning pain and limited range of motion.
