That wouldn't have happenned if they had been wearing the chin strap (normally) supplied with the hat. I agree, however, that on most open excavations there are few if any overhead risks. I've also walked into my own share of scaffolds etc but I've always put it down to the extra height rather than loss of peripheral vision.
