Conan O’Brien Injury Video Revealed

Late last week, Conan O’Brien had an accident while filming a segment of the Tonight Show With Conan O’Brien with Teri Hatcher.  They were pretending to be in a race and, right at the finish line, he slipped, fell backwards and bumped his head.

While he got up afterwards and was talking, it quickly became clear that all was not well since he was forgetting things and seemed to be in a daze.

In the end, Conan was sent to the hospital and it was later determined that he had suffered a concussion but would be fine after resting for a few days at home.

Remarkably, he returned to work on Monday and then last night, he sat down and talked about the experience with his friend/announcer, Andy Richter, who filled the audience in on what happened backstage when the production team began questioning Conan about how he was feeling.

The video isn’t the best quality but it’s good enough.  Warning – I found the fall pretty yucky so if you are sensitive to this sort of thing, you might want to fast-forward.
