However at least someone had the good sense to organise harnesses and lanyards which probably saved these men from serious injury, not to mention death.

It looks though as though the man on the left was not wearing his harness properly and suffered more from the shock and impact of the fall than his colleague who was. However as far as we have been able to determine so far both men were spared serious injury.
Hopefully next time they will do a little more planning and use a lift that is better suited to the job?
