Oscars 2019: Rami Malek FALLS off stage following Best Actor win
Bohemian Rhapsody actor Rami Malek fell offstage just after accepting his Best Actor award at the Oscars. Paramedics rushed to the 37-year-old's side after he tumbled off stage after receiving the gong. He was plonked in a stage-side seat to be seen to by two paramedics with medical equipment. It isn't clear what caused the fall but he was forced to lay his gong down on the stage before being pulled onto nearby seats by a suited security guard. But Rami appeared fine making a jokey face after the slip before returning to the audience. Just before he took the tumble the Bohemian Rhapsody actor made an emotional award acceptance speech.
