An employee was working on a large milling machine, about 12 feet high. The product adjustment cable was hooked to the platform; when the machine moved, the platform failed and developed a 45-degree slant. The employee fell through the guardrail and landed first on a machine table about 9 feet below, then on a machine cover a foot below that. The employee suffered a broken pelvis, hip, and left forearm; broken ribs; and internal bleeding from the spleen.
