On 08/25/21, about 1:00 PM I was trying to climb down from the Loader and must have missed a step. I slipped down off of the loader and hit my head. My coworkers working nearby ran over and revived me and then called 911. An ambulance came & I went to GIMC where they ran tests & I stayed until almost 10:30 that night.
