Un fortunately the video starts after 2 of the wheels were already out of their sockets. To me this means the stems of the casters were not pinned in place. The floof was clean and clear of debris as far as I could see so I 6think they tried to move the scaffold without unlocking 1 or more of the wheel locks 2 guys giving it a shove to move it would have been enough to cause it to tilt slightly and allow the caster stems to fall out. From there it was all over but the pain.
Looks like all 4 wheels came out, no wheels pinned, your right about pain, maybe a broken bone, could have been worse.
The first second of the video shows one guy jumping off the top deck to the second, overbalancing the load suddenly, which causes the tip.
Could have been exacerbated by the wheels being turned so they were tucked towards the center.
They should both have rode it down then pushed off at the bottom. The guy that jumped got the worst of it - hit the ground hard then the scaffold landed on top of him.
