There I was hanging from about two stories up in the air on some metal conduit. I am tied off with my harness. I took safety training and I was ready to do anything so I thought. Hear i am looking down at the concrete below watching the employees washing the concrete with some kind of liquid. I then started working as a fellow co-worker handed me some supplies to put up. I kept watching around me like the safety programs i took says to do. Then I get a glimps of a man walking across the concrete. He is carring a bunch of lumber on his shoulders. The concrete had broken in some areas and the ground was unlevel. I finished putting up the materials. I started climbing down the pipe rack. I was just about 6 feet of the ground when the man stumbled fell on the lumber jabing a nail in his shoulder and his hand touched the ground. He started screaming and fell over on his back then he started screaming louder. I saw smoke start coming off of him where he had touched the ground. The smell was horrible. He jumped up and ran to the emergency shower, but i noticed that his back and hands had no skin i saw nothing, but what looked like a red steak with smoke coming off of his cloths. I couldn't watch no longer. He ended up dieing in the hospital I heard a couple days later.
The next thing that happened which was about a couple months later that bothered me was I was hanging of the side of a pipe rack. Probably about 1 and a half stories off the ground. I saw a mechine operator from his crain hollering at a man that was standing on the ground. The argued back and forth for a while. The man that was in the mechine was so angry that I saw that his face was red. He jumped out of his mechine, but as the large man that he was he hit the lever with his stomach. I heard the mechine hit in gear as soon as he feel. The large back wheel of the mechine moved forward running him over blood and other organs just shot out of the mans body all around him. I wanted to cry, but I didn't have time to. The mechine moved forward as people jumped out of the way. The mechine headed straight toward the building. I couldn't do nothing, but close my eyes. The one thing i do remember is saying God help me. Then I wake up about 30 minutes later hanging from my harness. The circulation from my legs was limited. I couldn't feel them they were asleep and my shoulders were hurting. They managed to get me down with a man lift. I saw an ambulence and cops. The last thing I remember see was the mans' skull peices and the bits of bloody brown hair.
