Miraculous escape of builder having fallen from 9th floor in

As Construction.RU was told by the press office of the RF Investigation Committee, a 32-year-old concrete finisher was standing on scaffolds doing his work. Unexpectedly a large laminated sheet fell from the roof. Trying to avoid it the worker slipped and fell to the lower layer of the scaffolds. But the fall did not stop. He broke through the other seven layers and turned out on the ground. Having got back his breath, the man stood up and went to the construction trailer.

His colleagues called the ambulance, and the doctors diagnosed only several scratches and let him go home.

Now investigators are to clear out if accident prevention regulations were violated at the construction site. After the check a proceeding decision will be taken.
