Final narrative
An employee was dismantling a lubricant barrel with a torch when it exploded. The explosive force blew out the bottom of the drum, which flew up and struck the employee's face, smashing the welding helmet he was wearing, sending him backwards, and causing him to hit his head on the concrete floor. He suffered facial lacerations, a skull fracture, and bleeding on the brain.
