Narrative

A concrete panel was standing upright on the ground, rigged for lifting and secured from falling over. An employee was on a ladder, unhooking crane rigging, when the crane boom was lowered. The panel leaned toward him and he jumped off the ladder, thinking it was about to fall over. He landed on both feet and suffered fractures to both heels. He was hospitalized.
