A man is lucky to be alive after being buried under a mountain of pineapples, according to hospital officials in New Jersey.
The man, who is a warehouse worker in New Jersey, survived despite being crushed under a mountain of 1,500 pounds of pineapples which fell on top of him. He was taken to a hospital as a precaution despite suffering no visible injuries.
The man was identified as a 39-year-old resident of New Jersey.
The accident occurred at 107 West Side Avenue in Jersey City, New Jersey. It took rescue workers more than five minutes to rescue the man from under the mountain of pineapples, a rescue worker at the scene said.
“That is one big mountain of pineapples. I would have had nightmares for the rest of my life if that happened to me. Hopefully, the man can recover quickly and go back to his pineapple work. We still need pineapples,” Sherry Baker, 38, of Jersey City, New Jersey told YourJewishNews.com after being asked to comment on the pineapple work accident.
