Enrique Iglesias badly hurt in drone accident during concert

ENRIQUE Iglesias was seriously injured when he grabbed a drone that was buzzing during his concert recently.

It happened in Tijuana (a city in Mexico), where Enrique was performing to a crowd of 12,000. The drone was part of the concert to get crowd shots. While Enrique sometimes grabbed it as it flied around, showing the audience his POV (point of view). But this time he grabbed the wrong part, and the drone sliced into his hand. He went to the side of the stage for immediate ‘semi-treatment’, he was advised to end the show but Enrique went on for 30 minutes, with a blood-soaked t-shirt.

The singer was rushed to the airport where an ambulance was waiting to give him first aid. He then flew to L.A. to meet a specialist. After the incident, fans have been sending wishes and ‘get well soons’ to the singer via social media.


This Batman rollercoaster is definitely not for kids!

THIS highly anticipated Batman roller coaster has finally been opened at the Six Flags Fiesta Texas amusement park. Adrenaline junkies will be treated to a 4D coaster experience, courtesy of the rotating seats that make passenger feel as though they are floating in mid-air.

The track features a steep 120ft climb before passengers are hurled through the air in a series of stomach-churning twist and turns.

The park president Martin Bozer, said, “‘Batman: The Ride’ is an entirely new concept in ride engineering and will provide sensory experience like no other coaster.”

So kids wait till you are old enough to enjoy this ride!
