aboard <strong>M\/V BEKS YILMAZ<\/strong> (<strong><em>See<\/em><\/strong> photo below) while at berth at Portland port (UK) on 26 March 2021.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Available media accounts (<strong><em>See <\/em><\/strong>links below) are somewhat conflicting, in that one of them includes a byline of <strong><em>&#8220;Man dies after falling into vat of grain on cargo ship.&#8221;<\/em> <\/strong>No other available media account refers to a fall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Based upon the content of several other media accounts, we presently conjecture that this worker was either: <strong>1). <\/strong>the victim of an impact fall into the hold of the vessel; <strong>2). <\/strong>the victim of a fall into the hold and was engulfed\/suffocated by the grain cargo; or, <strong>3).<\/strong> trimming the grain cargo within the hold and was overcome by a [fumigant rich\/oxygen deficient] atmosphere incompatible with life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\"
