Tom Segura Revisits His Viral Injury While Attempting To Dunk
On today's Pardon My Take... TOM SEGURA! The comedian joined Mr. Cat and Mr. Commenter on today's show to discuss his tour, comedy, and his injury on the basketball court that went viral. What went into the moment that led up to this incident? The guys broke it down on today's show:
Tom Segura: Well, Bert [Kreischer] was there. I still remember him going, "You okay, buddy?" And I was sitting there with my arm facing the other way, behind my back, he goes... "Buddy?" And I was like, "Call 911."
Mr. Commenter: I guess it's good that it got caught on camera, though. It would have been such a waste if it wasn't filmed.
Mr. Cat: That's true
Tom Segura: Telling that story is not the same, when I'm in the… First, I'm in the emergency room, and then I'm in another room in the hospital, and they're finally getting me ready for surgery. Surgery is going to happen in like a day or two, right? I'm in a regular, my own room, right? The trauma surgeon comes in and he's like, "So, like, how did this happen?" And I'm telling him, and he's like, "OK." And I could see that he's putting it into his head. And then I go, "You know, I have it on video." And he goes, "I'm sorry, what?" "I have it on video from multiple angles." "Why?" "Well, because, we're filming for this thing." "You know, I'd really like to see that. I could show that to people." "I think you'll just get the link…"
Mr. Cat: Yeah, you'll see it everywhere.
Tom Segura: And then I showed it to him, I gave him my phone, and he goes, "OH!" I go, "Wait, you're shrugging at that?" He goes, "Yeah, that was terrible. I don't want to see that again."
The thing that blows my mind the most about this video is the sound of Tom falling onto the hardwood. That is some loud, thunderous audio. Luckily, he recovered and is now able to tell and joke about the story. Love to see it.
