Ladder deficiency allows fall to quay

Ladder deficiency allows fall to quay

MARS

A crew member was climbing down from the gantry crane control area to the deck. While proceeding down the ladder, the crew member lost their footing on one of the upper rungs. They initially fell to a platform on the lower part of the gantry crane, but the momentum from the initial fall carried them over the platform railing and then down over the ship’s side railing before finally landing on the quay.
