The tank was to be used for some demolition testing and was being delivered on a large 18-wheel tractor-trailer. Chuck volunteered to go to the range and help unload it. A forklift had picked up the tank and was backing away from the truck. Chuck asked the truck driver if he could have the wood chocks on the truck to place under the tank. The driver said, yes. Chuck step in between the tank and the trailer to get the chocks, just as the forklift was backing up a slight incline. The tank rolled off the forklift and crush Chuck. Chuck died immediately.
