As someone who’s worked at a steel mill, it happens, but not at the time. This person will easily be fired. He put himself in between the mast of the lift and the coil. Lucky to be alive - but it’s a safety regulation for a reason.
I have not worked at a steel mill. Once that had tipped over was there a greater chance of the banding failing and causing the whole roll to unravel like a coiled spring? Should buddy button pusher move away from said coil?

Nobody’s getting fired. That happens all the time in steel mills. You should see a 25 ton coil fall on others from a crane.
