ELECTRIC SHOCK - CONTACT WITH OVERHEAD LINE THRU LOAD LINE

Two employees were rigging a roof truss so that a 9-metric-ton truck crane could hoist it. Using a tag line, one of the employees passed the assembly ball to the other employee. The second employee held the load line in his left hand and hooked the truss to the load line. He then pulled back with his left hand and brought the load line into contact with an overhead power line. He was electrocuted.
