The employee was drilling a bolt hole in order to rock bolt some blocky ground when a rock fell and struck him on the head.
The employee was hanging vent line while standing in the slightly elevated bucket of a loader. He jumped from the bucket (1 1/2 - 2 feet) and felt a pain in his back when he landed. He then drilled with a jackleg drill for about 2 hours and the following morning he experienced severe back pain.
