Chris Martin, the lead singer of Coldplay, fell into a trapdoor on Sunday (3) during a concert in Melbourne, Australia, as part of the “Music of the Spheres” tour. The video quickly went viral on social media.
The lead singer fell in front of more than 50,000 people at Marvel Stadium. A video shared on the X network (formerly Twitter) shows the moment Martin is walking backward and sinks into the floor.
You can hear the audience hold their breath as the “Paradise” singer recovers from the shock.
“This wasn’t part of the plan, thanks for holding me up,” he said into the microphone. “Thank you, everyone, what a shock!” he concluded.
“This is going to be a YouTube moment,” joked Martin, who wasn’t injured from the fall.
Coldplay’s “Music of the Spheres” tour continues now in Sydney before making a stop in New Zealand. The tour began in 2022 and has dates scheduled through September 2025.
