so did the gate close on you, roll over you, or actually fall on top of you?

Let's add a little perspective here. Wheel took the picture, so based on the angles the gate is only 3' high.

I did not take the pic.

A buddy of mine took them early saturday morning before the place was open.

Hell, I can't stand up on crutches for more than 5 minutes at a time.

It fell on me. but only half. It meets in the middle. But, that half is approx 1500 lbs.

I was closing the gate. No electric opener. The gates rolls on a track and somehow it came off the track and landed on me. I was pinned under it,,

Probably should have a normal sized person standing next to it so we have some perspective.

I guess if it's 4' tall, it could have crushed your skull....

I was on the inside of the gate. I had to yell for help. The service dept bays are about 30 yds away . Somebody heard and ran over. It took 3 or 4 guys to lift it up high enough to get me out.. Luckily only my lower body from the waist down was pinned.

Also.

I did hear the bones snap when it first hit me,,,
