Giacomo Chiapparini, 75, was killed when a shelf broke in his warehouse in the Lombardy region on Sunday evening causing a 'domino effect' in which around 25,000 wheels fell.
An Italian man was crushed to death under thousands of large wheels of a parmesan-style hard cheese each weighing around 40kg.
Giacomo Chiapparini, 75, was killed when a 10-metre-high shelf broke in his warehouse in the Lombardy region on Sunday evening. This resulted in a domino effect resulting in thousands of wheels of Grana Padano cheese falling, local firefighters said. Rescuers"had to move the cheese and the shelves by hand" in a 12-hour operation, according to firefighter Antonio Dusi.
The warehouse, in the town of Romano di Lombardia south of Bergamo, contained 25,000 wheels of Grana Padano.
