SAM Magazine--November 21, 2012--An unfortunate accident at Clear Fork Resort in central Ohio, cost an employee his arm on Tuesday, November 20. Clear Fork Resort has been constructing a new tubing park, slated to open December 7, with 10 lanes serviced by a newly-installed conveyor lift. While working on the lift, employee Russell Watts had his left arm torn off. Watts was airlifted to a nearby hospital where he is listed in serious condition. Industry experts are renewing their plea for safe lock-out, tag-out procedures as resorts get their lifts in shape for the upcoming season to avoid accidents such as these.
