Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was operating a sky ride at an amusement park. It was a slow day and he was tossing his cigarette lighter into the air and catching it. The lighter landed 12 ft in the air on the ride's machinery. The 18-year-old employee climbed to retrieve the lighter, stumbled on an I-beam, and fell into the moving machinery. His right arm became caught in the machinery and was pulled off.
