## Narrative

While hooking up a crane, the crane rigger signaled the crane operator to slack off. The operator slacked off and one chain was removed. When the rigger went to remove the second chain, the counter balance fell to the ground. The counter balance hit the rigger's left foot and severed their boot, resulting in injuries to the big toe and the toes next to it.
