Sep 29 2009See Conan O'Brien Smash His Head
You heard how Conan O'Brien banged his head pretty bad while taping a sketch for The Tonight Show, right? Well, you can finally sate your concussion bloodlust, because he presented the footage and told the full story on his show last night, and now that's on internet.
Sad that this would happen to Conan after just a few months on the show, yet Leno somehow went 17 years without someone running on the stage and bludgeoning him with anything.
On the plus side, if he gets a manila envelope and ten stamps, he's practically guaranteed to win this season of America's Funniest Home Videos.

Poor guy! He barely reacted, but I guess head injuries can mess you up later on. And he still joked about it... crazy!

Poor Co Co. I have had 3 concussions in my life and one was during a football practice in high school. It was the start of practice and I finished the entire thing, yet I remember nothing until after it was over and I was back home. Also, I have not been able to remember things like phone numbers since.

Poor Conan, man! That was a hard hit. He looked choked up last night talking about it. Andy is a good guy taking care of Conan like that. I guess he knows where his meal ticket comes from :)

Conan helped our city during the SARS scare. I was lucky enough to see a taping. I hope he gets through this without any lingering effects.

I hope he's alright.
Love him or hate him, he's always a class act. I love him for being so nerdy and self-deprecating.

It looked like he deliberately prepared to fall by crouching down at the finish line, as if he were trying to slide into third.

"The show must go on."

I've done that and knocked myself out. I'm completely fine except now I see dead people!

Scary how Conan was slurring his words.
