James Hetfield Fall Down Go Boom

Metallica’s James Hetfield took a nasty spill during the band’s performance last night (Monday, September 4) at the Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam. Fan-filmed video footage shows that at one point during the show pieces of the stage slid apart to make four holes, into one of which Hetfield promptly fell. I haven’t seen Metallica live on the Hardwired tour, so I’m not clear if these holes are a regular part of the show or were a mistake or what.

Regardless, this is not the worst thing to ever happen to James Hetfield mid-show. So I think we can all chuckle about this without feeling too bad.
