Happens often. Workers go in to shovel the grain around to get it near an auger for removal or just to spread it around...clean the bin, several different things. Unfortunately, the dry grain is like quicksand, once you start sinking you can't get a footing to get out. I wish folks would abide by confined space entry rules and always tie off and have someone outside watching. Two there, two go in... bad news.
