What a man.
Dave Grohl is widely and deservedly known as one of the nicest men in music, but it turns out he’s one of the toughest too.
According to reports from Sweden, the Foo Fighters frontman fell off the stage while performing a cover of Queen’s ‘Under Pressure’ at a gig in Gothenburg this evening and suffered a suspected broken leg in the process.
While that would be enough to stop most mere mortals in their tracks, Grohl got back on stage and continued to perform the song… while sat in a chair and while he was being treated by medical staff.

Dave eventually had to succumb to medical advice and the gig was stopped following the song so he could get treatment, but who else would even think of even playing on after suffering a serious injury like that?
He’s some man for one man alright.
