The miner was descending properly from loader to take a break. Turned around to start to come down from loader and fell backwards. Landed primarily on feet, causing both to be sprained. Also sprained left wrist falling back on it. Also hit head on shuttle vehicle below. Had hard hat on, so only had minor concussion.
