Investigation Summary
On May 7, 2002, Employee #1 was working with his regular crew on the floor of an oil rig. He was near the well bore, between the spinner tongs and the break-out tongs, when the break-out tongs were pushed out of the way. They crept back inward and then swung around suddenly, striking Employee #1 and slamming his head against the spinner tongs. Employee #1 sustained crushing injuries to the side of his face and he was killed.
