Howdy, well I had a friend get hurt the other day. This is what happen, they were loading a pole using pole tongs, ( if you have ever used pole tongs you know how they can be, slightest little bump with the pole and they can come unhooked from the pole) well this is what happen to them, when the pole come loose it fell down on some other poles, he was standing at the end of the pole when it fell, well the pole bounced back up catching him in the adamapples and the chin, it knock him back about 10 feet, and knocked him out, when he came to he was coughing up blood in the ambulance, he was in ICU for one night, 2 days later he was back to work, he is just fine now, WATCH OUT for those dang POLE TONGS, they are nice to use, but you can never trust them, any comments, post, thanks.
