Watch: Axl Rose falls face first on stage

Axl Rose suffered a rather nasty faceplant while playing 'Sweet Child o' Mine' at the Guns N' Roses set for the French festival Hellfest, last Saturday.

In footage just released online, Axl can be seen losing his footing and falling face first. The singer recovered quickly but seemed a bit shaken finishing off the song.

For such a massive fall, you'd think that Axl was doing something hair-raising like running around the stage. But no, he was casually sauntering up the stage risers.

Axl's fall is the latest in a series of misfortunes that have plagued the band recently, including the theft (and then return) of three gold and diamond necklaces worth around $190,000, being pelted with coins and pint glasses during their final UK arena tour and the backlash they received for turning away fans who wore Slash T-shirts to their UK gigs.
