Four employees gathered at one point on a 17 1/2 ft high scaffold. The wire holding the beam that was supporting the scaffold platform broke, causing the portion of the scaffold where the employees were standing to fall. Employees #1, #2, and #3 fell to the floor. Employee #1 suffered shattered heels and a fractured back; Employee #2 was hit in the face by a falling board and suffered a broken cheekbone and nose; Employee #3 suffered fractured ribs. A fourth employee held onto the ceiling framework and was able to swing onto the scaffolding that remained standing. He was not injured.
