Joel Metz, 28, a worker for Fortune Wireless, was decapitated on Wednesday after a heavy boom fell and a cable struck him.

After the gruesome accident, the worker's body hung in a safety harness for five hours before crews were able to bring Metz down.

Metz was part of a four-person crew from Indianapolis that was working on the tower. At the time of the accident, Metz was on the tower 240 feet high with one other worker. There were two men on the ground.

It was initially believed that a snapped cable had decapitated Metz. But investigators found the cable to be intact.
