Live TV is so exciting because anything can happen, and sometimes that means injuries. Today I'm reacting to injuries and medical emergencies that happened on live tv. We're talking America's Got Talent, American Idol, newscasters having strokes, dehydration, Wendy Williams overheating, swallowing swords, being hit with a motorcycle, vasovagal syncope, drowning, Dan Harris, and magical tricks like David Blaine's needle in going wrong. Which clips did I miss? Let me know down below.
I LOVE reading your comments and take your suggestions seriously. If there’s a subject you want me to discuss or something you’d like for me to react to, leave a comment down below. Many of my videos have been born out of suggestions directly from you, so don’t hold back!
