Narrative

An employee climbed an 8- to 10-foot ladder to open the door to a confined space. The door was under pressure, and as the employee opened the final latch, it came open and knocked the employee from the ladder. He fell approximately 8 feet, fracturing his skull, breaking several ribs, and puncturing a lung.
