A 24-year old forklift operator (decedent) died when he was crushed by a 2,214 pound roll of paper that tumbled out of a boxcar door. The decedent had opened the boxcar door to access the load of rolls of paper for unloading. The bands that had held several rolls together pulled apart during shipping and the rolls had dislodged. When the decedent opened the door far enough, one roll fell on top of him. Neither the decedent nor his co-worker had training in unloading boxcars.
