Investigation Summary
Employee #1 was standing beside a wellhead while the operator attached the elevators to the pipe string. As he closed the elevators, the pipe slip holding the string in place slipped and the string fell about 2 feet. The string caught the elevators and pulled down the block, causing the block lines to go slack. The block whipped from side to side, striking and killing Employee #1.
