A Video Of Taylor Swift Nearly Falling Off The Stage During Her ‘Eras’ Tour Just Went Viral: ‘My Life Flashed Before My Eyes’

A close call occurred during Taylor Swift‘s “Eras Tour” stop in Tokyo last week as she neared a tumble while on stage. The incident, in which the 34-year-old Grammy winner almost fell off a prop while concluding her performance of “The 1,” quickly gained attention as a viral video among fans on social media.

At the Tokyo Dome on February 9th, the “Anti-Hero” hitmaker nearly tripped while walking on a stage prop, but fortunately, she managed to regain her balance. As seen in fan-shot footage, Swift began the Folklore segment of the performance by positioning herself on the rooftop of a cabin.

As she sang the opening track from her 2020 album, she had a slight misstep as she walked along the roof while donning a long, flowing green maxi dress. The “Lavender Haze” songwriter then regained her composure and resumed her stride towards the stage to perform the upcoming song, “Betty.”

Shortly after, while speaking to her Japanese audience, Swift made reference to the incident. “I almost fell off the Folklore cabin, but I didn’t, and that’s the lesson,” she said to concertgoers, adding: “My life flashed before my eyes.”

She then reassured concerned fans, stressing: “Yeah, no, I’m good. It’s all good. Everything’s fine. Everything’s great. I’m just so happy that I didn’t fall off the Folklore cabin.” Swift then started discussing the creation process behind her Folklore album and moved on.
