Narrative

An employee was instructing other employees regarding the procedure on how to remove a 36-inch diameter pipe from within a larger diameter pipe. The pipe began moving too fast and rolled up onto his right leg, pinning him and causing his leg to break. He underwent surgery to repair damage and reset the bone.
