Are you noticing a pattern here? A few days after we expressed concern at the thought of stage diving, this happens.
According to Reverb, a 23-year old attendee at a Bring Me The Horizon and Of Mice and Men concert earlier this week at the Ogden Theatre in Colorado jumped off a balcony "causing head and neck trauma to two victims and minor injuries to a third."
The man, identified as Alex McCormick, fled the scene allegedly but was detained and arrested later that night and is due in court on February 24 on assault charges.
While I can be convinced that stage diving can be harmless, diving off a balcony is incredibly dangerous, as shown here. The only thing stupider would be climbing up the stage setup and diving off that.
Fun is one thing, but endangering others… not so fun.
