supervisor?

Where was the supervisor? Its a good idea to have a trama blanket to keep the injured from going into shock. They are inexpensive and well worth the investment. What shocks me the most is you had to call an ambulence which means no ground helpers.

The supervis0r was sitting in truck (ford ranger) behind the big aerial truck HE fell near front bumper.

That is what would really set me off! He doesn't pay attention to his crew. Hopefully he looks at the condition of his help ie: drugs, alcohol, sick, or sleepy. He should have had a buddy climber with him at all times. Its the only way new climbers have to practice in real situations what they have learned at a slow pace on instruction.
