IMCA: Crane cab access platform collapsed

The incident occurred as the Crane Operator (Bosun) was starting work. While the Bosun was climbing the ladder to the cab, the access platform with its protective cage, connected to the crane base, suddenly failed. As a result, the Crane Operator fell within the ladder's protective enclosure, which partially mitigated the fall. The Crane Operator was shaken but not injured.
