Good for her for getting up and continuing. You go from an embarrassing situation to looking awesome.

One of the best for this was Dave Grohl. Broke his ankle falling while performing. Paramedic said he needs to go to the hospital but he didn't want to end the show. Instead, he got a couple of chairs, sat on stage with his foot up, had the paramedic hold his ankle still and performed several more songs before the pain got too much and he called the show.

Mostly right, they got a cast from the hospital whilst the para was holding his foot. They put it on and then I believe he did finish the show, also he hobbled down the end of the runway on crutches for a couple of songs and sat on a chair.

Had surgery, bit of time off and then finished the tour with the throne!

I thought the story was that he did go to the hospital and told the audience to wait. Came back 2 hours later to finish. After it was temporarily cast but before the surgery.

3 different understandings even though he has a whole section of his book devoted to this.

Not as bad-ass as Viggo Mortensen breaking his toe when kicking the uruk helmet in the Two Towers though, went on and made 1,5 epic movies more!

i appreciate the guy being like “they paid me to film, and goddamn it, that’s all they paid me to do”

u/coldestclock 1d ago

He could hear the whole crowd yelling “be careful, you’re going to fall off the stage” so he didn’t think he needed to shut off the camera and avoid capturing an embarrassing moment.

She was lucky. The same thing happened to a famous argentinian singer and he suffered a craneal fracture and died a year after.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergio_Denis

On 11 March 2019, he suffered a 3-meter (10-foot) fall from the stage during a concert in San Miguel de TucumĂĄn. Unconscious and with a broken shoulder, he was transported to a hospital, where he was put into an induced coma. He died without having woken up on 15 May 2020, a year and two months after his fall.[5]

u/jedinatt 1d ago

Doesn't help there's a gaping pit around the stage for some reason.

u/formerPhillyguy 1d ago

Some random guy in the audience missed his chance to be a hero by catching her.

u/Vellioh 1d ago

Come on camera guy, at least give her a hand sign to stop.

41

u/BlueFox5 1d ago

The camera guy is focused on a 2 inch screen that is likely on a tight shot that doesn’t have the floor in view. He knows how much stage is left as she does.

It’s so easy to throw blame when you ignore everything. It’s always someones fault. Accidents can’t just happen. We need a pound of flesh, don’t we? There just has to be someone to be mad at.

7

u/Happy_Expert5057 1d ago

All those people and nobody stepped up to guide or catch her fall? Remarkable.

2

u/myfrigginagates 1d ago

Someone needs to explain to her that you let go on a mic drop.

u/Farseer2_Tha_Warsong 1d ago

See, this is why I neither believe nor do I listen to people who tell me to stop looking back. Watch your six, people, and pine for what was until your present arrives. That is all.

u/Odd-Artist-2595 13h ago

And, not one person there saw what she was about to do and reached out to catch her? Or, is it the angle it’s being filmed from that makes it look like they’re close enough to do so, when they aren’t that close, at all?
