This one is painful to watch

Guardrails
Fully planked platform
Diagonal brace from corner to corner (fully planked platforms help this, especially with alumapicks versus wood planks, unless secured)
Wrong frames
Pins
Moving with employees on board
Proper access
Hardhats (they wouldn’t have helped)
Cords underfoot

Competent Person?
JHA?
Training?

Scissorlift? Eliminate the hazard before it becomes an issue…

Likely multiple Injuries…

• Traumatic Brain Injuries
• Long-bone fractures
• Facial trauma – airway compromise
• Internal bleeding
• Punctured lungs, spleen, liver
• Crushing injuries on employee who fell from top, got hung up on brace and went down head first
• Shock is about one minute away
• Fall from greater than three times one’s height, better than 50% fatality”

Four lives change in less than 3 seconds

We don’t know the actual outcome – but in most cases, the failure is predictable, and so is the outcome, barring miracles…
