I once read an interview with Iggy Pop in which he claimed that he invented diving into the audience at rock concerts and then surfing the crowd.  The thing is, the first time he tried it (in the heat of the moment all adrenalin and stuff) the crowd moved away so that he did not land on them…..  You would think that having tried it once with that result you would not try it again.

Anyway on this day in 1975 Alice Cooper fell off the stage in Vancouver ( not claiming to have started the draze)  whereas Iggy just dented his ego when he did it Alice broke 6 ribs.  Now, given Alice’s shows wouldn’t have expected him to carry on with the tour?  Nah, he cancelled several dates after this fall.
