Final narrative
An employee was operating an overhead crane to move a coil to a staging rack. After setting the coil down next to another coil, the employee did not move the chain, which was caught between the two coils. When the employee went to move the crane with the lodged chain, the coil became unstable and began to fall. The employee stepped out onto the staging rack to stabilize the coil with his hands. The coil was too heavy and fell onto the rack and the employee's right and left legs. As a result, the employee suffered amputation of the left leg and a fracture to the right leg.
