At that moment there were two bags on the belt loader. The second bag bumped into the first stuck bag causing it to cascade to the left of the belt loader. [REDACTED] extended his left arm to brace the bag from falling off the belt loader but misjudged the weight of the bag and it continued to fall causing discomfort to his left shoulder.
