A video has surfaced showing the fall that led to Heather McDonald sustaining a fracture in her skull, as hospital scans later revealed. The event happened during a stand-up comedy event in Tempe, Arizona.
In the video, she jokes, “I don’t mean to brag, I know you don’t care, but I want you to know, I’m vaxxed, double vaxxed, boosted, and flu shot. And I’m going, to be honest, I’ve got the shingles shot too… and I still get my period. What? Yes!”
“Clearly, Jesus loves me the most. Seriously. So nice, so nice,” she joked right before hitting the floor.
It was at this point she collapsed, eliciting more applause and laughter from the audience who thought it was part of the script.
Speaking of scripts. Some fans thought that Heather McDonald fell to gain more publicity or indirectly cancel the show. Others have blamed her fall on anxiety, and others still on the vaccine.
“I got up, I did one joke and I felt so dizzy. You can see my eye, I fell on my eye. Oh my God, I cannot believe this happened, I feel so terrible that they had to tell everyone to leave and then cancel the second show,” Heather McDonald said in a video posted from the hospital.
Her last Twitter post reads, “I fainted on stage and fractured my skull in front of a sold-out show. What do you think caused it? #karma #jesus”
