## Narrative

An employee was disconnecting a piece of flow iron from a pump. He was supporting the piece of pipe with his left hand and hitting it with his right hand when it suddenly disconnected. Due to the weight of the pipe, it dropped about 1 foot, catching his left ring finger between the iron and rear bumper of the pump and amputating the fingertip. He required surgery.
