The tie downs broke due to a surge from sand knockout. Had hydrolic valve and manual 2x2 plug valve. Plug valve was open-just there for secondary incase of wash on hydrolic. Sand knockout was plugged @ hydrolic and sudden surge due to sand coming loose broke tie downs and whipped pipe backwards from pit and struck him. All the info I have right now. Could happen to any of us.
