Guns N’ Roses Singer Axl Rose Takes Another Tumble in France

Poor Axl Rose! As if it weren’t bad enough that the Guns N’ Roses singer has been dodging projectiles from the audience at shows, it seems his balance isn’t exactly what it used to be.

During a show Saturday (June 16) at Hellfest in Clisson, France, Rose took another tumble. This time, the incident happened as Axl was taking his spot onstage for the beginning of ‘Sweet Child O’ Mine.’ The singer can be seen climbing the drum riser for the opening notes of the song when he misses a step and takes a header to the ground below (about 25 seconds into the video below). However, Rose recovered just in time to jump into the song right on cue with “She’s got eyes of the bluest skies.”

This marks the second fall for Rose this year as he fell flat on his hind side last month during a show in Liverpool. The accident happened as Rose was saying farewell to the crowd after playing ‘Paradise City,’ and as he was walking backwards still facing the crowd, he managed to get his feet caught on another stage riser, sending him backward.

Even before the tour started, Rose showed his growing clumsiness when he posted a photo of a hematoma he incurred while dancing on tables at a Russian establishment.
