Final narrative
An employee was removing a nozzle from a relief valve with a 48-inch pipe. He put one leg over the pipe wrench and used his body weight to attempt to break the nozzle loose. On the first push, the wrench slipped off the nozzle, which caused the employee to fall downwards with his fingers under the wrench. The force of the fall onto the concrete floor caused his left middle fingertip to mostly separate.
