Investigation Summary
Employee #1, a rigger/lead man, was standing atop a bridge end truck that was fastened to the runway girders, dismantling an overhead traveling crane. After rigging the lift slings, he released the tie-down chains that held the bridge end truck on the runway girders. This caused the truck to shift and Employee #1 fell approximately 20 ft to the ground. He was killed. Employee #1 was not using any form of fall protection.
