The 16 Best Stage Falls Caught on Tape

8. Busta Rhymes
Ever wonder why they call him Busta Bust? This clip (and a kneecap X-ray) just might answer that question for us. See what happens when disaster strikes this Flipmode hip-hopper at a gig in Washington, D.C., while he was celebrating the birthday of NBA star Gilbert Arenas.

7. Kylie Minogue
There's not much explanation given for this clip of Australian pop star Kylie Minogue falling while accepting an award, but for irony's sake, let's assume that the prize was being given for choreography. Hopefully the event's stylist was fired for putting such a lengthy dress on the singer's 5-foot-tall frame.

6. Metallica
No band is more metal than Metallica. And as they prove here, nothing is more metal than a one-man mosh pit. Check out ex-bassist Jason Newsted's version of the back solo as he takes the plunge in this vintage concert footage.

5. The Game
Of all the feuds that have made Compton rapper the Game famous, none have come to such a violent climax as his beef with gravity that was settled in this clip. As the rapper found out at this event on USC's campus in April of 2007, nobody battle raps with Newton's Law and comes out unscathed.
