SUICIDE STAGE DIVER
Wednesday, September 2nd, 2009 at 12:30pm by Axl RosenbergFollowing up on yesterday’s post about stage dives gone awry, reader Karel Goethals sent us the below video that a friend of his shot at a recent Faith No More reunion show at Pukkelpop in Belgium. Skip ahead to roughly the 2:40 mark to enjoy the hilarity of what looks like one of the most painful missed-dives pretty much ever. Even Jon Hudson’s reaction when he sees the jump is hilarious. And gotta give Patton mensch-points for personally checking to make sure the dude is okay.
Ouch.
-AR
lmao holy fuck.
Note to self.
Next time I want to get Mike Patton’s attention- Stage dive to face plant.*
* Bring album covers in back pocket for him to sign.
rad.
Lets just hope there were midgits down there to catch him.
This is further proof that Mike Patton is an avatar of the god of awesome.
Saw my buddy break a leg stage-diving. Dude jumped off the stage, and the crowd parted like the Red sea. Some guys are just too big to crowd surf.
I saw Mike Patton dry hump a fallen stage diver back in 89.
Would’ve been cooler with Chuck and Jim.
well, you’re 50% right. maybe.
Notice the “No Stagediving” sign hanging from the stage.
did you just write “mensch-points”? rosenberg: trying too hard to be jewish.
What do you think Patton told the fucker? Maybe “LOOK AT THE FUCKING SIGN, THAT’S WHAT IT IS HERE FOR!”
Face No More
Win.
Patton: “You got knocked the FUCK out”
props to faith no more for getting right back into that song so effortlessly
THIS. The band’s tight!
I lol’d so hard I cried. Just watching that ‘tard flying through the air…awesome.
LMMFAO wife just said THAT is why she will never stagedive
That fucking sucks, I’ve not been caught before, and I’ve been dropped afterwards, but fuck that looked like it was bad

1:26-1:28
I’m pretty his chest hit the rounded edge of the guard rail
Metalsucks should check it and post it
Love how Mike’s just like, “Let’s lighten the mood a bit.” and the band rolls with it. This is why FNM is one of the best.
Awesome. The sign just makes it priceless.
On a related note, here’s another impromptu stagedive gone wrong.
No metal, but there’s girls and a hilarious stagedive. Which is actually pretty metal, come think of it…
