Ryan Seacrest is no stranger to embarrassing snafus—like that time he wasdenied entry to Jennifer Lopez’s 50th birthdayandthe Oscars, or when heaccidentally wore his girlfriend’s shirt…or when herevealed theAmerican Idolfinale resultsearly. Come to think of it, he’s kind of accident-prone. But that didn’t make his latest bungle any less amazing.
It all started when the 45-year-old host arrived at work for yesterday’s episode ofLive with Kelly and Ryan.Everything was going fine—until he fell off his chair backward and hit the floor (literally).
The fall transpired while Seacrest, bless his heart, was trying to catch a gold balloon. When it started going behind him, he leaned back a little too far andboom. Lucky for us, the entire thing was captured on video since he was, of course, on live TV.
