Pink Injured On Stage – Video

July 16th, 2010

Pink has been taken to hospital after injuring herself during an onstage stunt in Germany last night (July 15).

The singer fell out of a harness which was supposed to catapult her across the crowd at a gig in Nuremberg, but instead she crashed into a barricade – watch the video below.

The concert was ended immediately and the singer was taken to hospital, though later assured fans that she was expected to make a full recovery following the accident.

“To all my nurnberg fans – I am so so so sorry to end the show that way. I am embarassed and very sorry. I’m in ambulance now but I will b fine,” she tweeted last night.

She later added: “Ok all my lovers out there – nothings broken, no fluid in the lungs, just seriously sore. I made that barricade my b*tch!!!! Thanx nurnberg.”

The singer has not yet confirmed if her injuries will keep her from upcoming performances on her Funhouse Summer Carnival Tour, which is scheduled to continue through Eastern Europe, Russia, the Czech Republic, Finland, Sweden, Denmark and Norway.

Pink performed a similar stunt without incident at the Isle Of Wight Festival in June.

This week’s meme is Rollercoaster Chess

The Back Story: The meme started with the highly popular stick figure cartoon xkcd. In April of 2007 they posted the following comic:

This planted the seed for many people to try and copy the comic and create their own souvenir photo. This meme has also morphed to include other board games such as checkers and Jenga, and has also moved from just rollercoasters to any on-ride or automatic camera (see traffic cam pic at bottom).

The set up: Glue, tape, velcro or stick chess pieces to a game board and then sneak it onto the ride. Set it up after you leave the boarding station and pose for the on-ride camera. The hilarity of the pictures draws from the absurdity of the situation: A focused thinker holding his or her chin, contemplating their next move amidst the screaming riders.
