Ric Flair Rushed To The Hospital After NASTY Fall | TMZ Sports

All right, moving on to a scary situation involving one of the most famous wrestlers of all time. Ric Flair is currently in the hospital after taking a nasty fall earlier today. So you see the video we've got right there. There are a bunch of paramedics surrounding the Nature Boy. We have been told here, and Ric hasn't said anything. Again, he is in the hospital. He's being treated, too. There's no reason to believe that these are, like, life-threatening injuries but from what we've been told he was at a bar earlier today Friday afternoon and was walking outside uh presumably on his way uh away from the bar leaving the bar and he somehow some way fell down and has apparently uh hit his head and a lot of blood sustained uh head injury sustained an eye injury and again you saw the paramedics that rushed to the scene there and are trying to make sure that Rick's okay yeah witnesses tell us like Rick is at this spot all the time and they actually saw him before um he took a stumble took a fall and that he was on FaceTime he was lively he was like you know doing his thing sitting at the bar like he's seen there regularly is what we were told and and yeah um we got these photos pretty scary yeah i i've talked to Rick from the bar on FaceTime and he's having a grand old time at the bar he still goes out still has fun and i don't know if it was a situation where he might have had too much to drink and because of that was unsteady on his feet yeah and he had recently back out of an event too and due to some health concerns as well so yeah blood clots so yeah rough time i just hope because you got you were really emphasizing emphasizing how much he is at this bar yeah Rick Flair is a 77 year old man who if you guys recall back in 2017 had a major health scare that led to multiple organs failing he i think he did a stint, I think he did like a 30, 35 day stint And rehab. Rick is someone who's talked openly about having a severe alcoholism, or has talked openly about having severe alcoholism at 77. I just don't know how your body can withstand so much alcohol, not to say that alcohol contributed to what's going on. But when you hear a 77 year old at a bar fall. Yeah. You know what I mean? I know. And I remember it's one in 2017 when he, I mean, even Rick, I've talked to him about this. Rick thought he was going to die and it is a miracle that he is still here because he went through hell with that medical issue that he had and and yeah, I mean that's hard on the body alcohol is not good for you, I think we obviously know that much, yeah, it'd be 77 and seemingly partying so hard, oh yeah, I mean I think you just kind of got to take, you know, if you're Rick, just you know hopefully you know thank goodness that this couldn't, isn't worse, right? I mean that he isn't, not with us anymore, right? I mean it could have been a lot worse clearly from what it sounds like, so I mean no, first and foremost glad that he's okay, second of all, I mean you know, you know you go through something like like in 2017 like you guys are saying you go through something like this where you know you could have put your life at a very severe risk, I mean I think if you're Rick, you kind of got to have to take this as, or somebody in his ear, in his corner, kind of say hey man like let's take a step back and you know, if this is, what if somebody else wasn't there to be there right away or what if you know you hit your head this way instead of this way, it's just a very you know, I think this is something that you should use as like kind of a teaching moment for yourself I mean, you know, you're an older fella. You know, don't waste those last years with, like, spending it coming in and out of the hospital for something like this. I mean, you know, just take a step back. Right, yeah, you don't want to be in the hospital. And look, bottom line is he's got a lot of fans. I mean, this guy is so, so popular. And, yeah, we all want Ric Flair around here as long as possible. We wish him the very best, and I'm sure he'll be out of that hospital very soon. Woo! Woo!
