The folks who perform in that show must be very good, because a lot of the stuff looks rather dangerous. I hope he has a smooth recovery!

Man I hate to hear stories like this. You know it's bound to happen once in a while, but I still hate it.

Sure makes me appreciate the jobs the performers do everyday to entertain us!

I know the scaffolding to jet-ski move is difficult, but that's the last stunt I would've guessed to get hurt doing with all the other craziness going on in LMA.
