Luke Bryan Takes A Tumble On Stage, Puts Footage Of Fall On Big Screen!

Luke Bryan took a huge tumble at a recent concert, but he is not letting his fall keep him down.

As seen in a new clip posted online, the country artist slipped onstage and coincidentally landed on top of a phone. However, Bryan paid no mind to the incident and continued having fun, going as far as putting footage of the fall on the big screen.

Bryan was performing at the Coast City Country Festival in Vancouver when he stepped in the wrong spot and went flying into the air. The fall came as the country singer-songwriter was getting hyped up for the next song on his set. 

He gained considerable height during his fall, which culminated in him stepping on an audience member’s phone. Luckily, the "Country Girl" artist did not seem seriously injured.

He quickly got back on his feet and laughed it off. He then asked if anyone in the crowd had captured the insane moment on their phone.

Bryan soon found that nearly everyone in the front row had cameras focused on him. He promptly borrowed a fan's phone to display a clip of his fall on the big screen for the entire stadium to enjoy.

Nearly one year before the unforgettable moment, Bryan opened up in an interview about a “challenging” 2023. At the time, he disclosed his intention to prioritize family time with his wife, Caroline, and their sons, Bo and Tate. 

The 47-year-old began by admitting, "I'm not balancing it well this year," before claiming that he had spoken to his wife about the rough year he was having then.

He claimed to have told her, "Baby, this is a rough year; let's just get through it, and then we'll find a boat and go to the Caribbean." Per The Blast, Bryan's comments regarding his tough year coincided with the controversy surrounding fellow "American Idol" judge Katy Perry. 

Perry faced criticism on social media for “mom-shaming” and being “condescending” on the show. However, Bryan came to her defense, saying the reality competition show sometimes puts too much pressure on judges. 

"I think we get set up. As judges, you know, we kinda fall on the sword many times," the 47-year-old expressed. "And get set up where people can get very vocal on socials. My thing is, I think when me and Lionel and Katy sit down at the desk, in our hearts, we're doing the best we can."

Nearly one year before the unforgettable moment, Bryan opened up about his "challenging" 2023 in an interview. 

At the time, he disclosed his intention to prioritize more time for his family with his wife, Caroline, and his sons — Bo and Tate.

Per The Blast, Bryan's comments regarding his tough year coincided with the controversy surrounding fellow "American Idol" judge and singer Katy Perry. 

Perry has faced criticism on social media for "mom-shaming" and being "condescending" on the show, leading to rumors that she was likely contemplating leaving the singing competition.

Bryan's situation became even more challenging when a University of Missouri student vanished after reportedly being ejected from the singer's bar last month. 

As The Blast reported, the student, Riley Strain, was enjoying a night out in Nashville, Tennessee with a group of friends on March 8. However, things soon took a turn when the 22-year-old failed to return to the group's hotel.

The disappearance sparked a missing persons case, with the last known sighting being him leaving Bryan's establishment known as 32 Bridge Food + Drink. Speaking on the unexpected situation, Strain's stepfather, Chris Whiteid, shared:

"At approximately 9:45 p.m., he was asked to leave Luke Bryan's bar. They got separated. The boys called him, and he said, 'I'm walking back to my hotel.' They didn't think anything about it."

Whiteid recounted that his stepson was "put out of the bar by himself," and his friend was not "able to get out" due to them probably taking care of the bill. "By the time they got outside, he just wasn't there any longer," the concerned stepfather added.

In response to the news of Strain's disappearance, a representative for the TC Restaurant Group and 32 Bridge refuted allegations of over-serving the student. 

The representative asserted that they had "quickly provided cops with any and all pertinent information in helping track Riley's whereabouts when he first disappeared last Friday — including handing over all the surveillance footage they had."

Additionally, they stated that they provided authorities with receipts, transaction records, and time stamps to support their claim of what Strain consumed while in the establishment. 

They further clarified that the student purchased one alcoholic drink on his own, which was the only alcoholic beverage he was served. The representative also noted that Strain was given two glasses of water during his time at 32 Bridge.

Notably, the bar confirmed that Strain was asked to leave the premises, aligning with previous statements indicating that the security team "made the decision" around 9:30 p.m. based on conduct standards. 

While the bar declared that the student was escorted to the front of the venue, accompanied by one person from his party, his family told news outlets that he was by himself.

Another discrepancy between the bar and the family's assertions was in 32 Bridge alleging that the individual who accompanied Strain did not leave the bar with him. Instead the person returned upstairs without him. 

This contradicts what the 22-year-old's family divulged as his stepfather suggested that his friends were prevented from leaving due to an unpaid bill.

The matter became even more complicated when Strain was found dead in the Cumberland River in Nashville two weeks later. No foul play was suspected.
