Harry Styles had fans worried after a scary-looking moment during his Wembley Stadium concert.
The 32-year-old singer was performing in London on Friday night (June 26) when he briefly fell to the stage near the end of the show.
The moment happened while Harry was performing his closer “As It Was.” In fan-shot videos shared online, he can be seen doing his signature “whale” move, where he spits water into the air in a spout-like burst.
Right after the move, Harry appeared to choke on the water and fall onstage where he stayed down and laid on his back.
While on the ground, he coughed several times while covering his mouth with his first. He also seemed to heave a few times and placed his hands near his abdomen as he tried to catch his breath.
After several long seconds, Harry got back up and appeared to recover before waving goodbye to fans and exiting the stage.
Did Harry Styles collapse onstage?
While some fans described the moment as Harry “collapsing,” the videos appear to show the fall happening immediately after he attempted his signature water-spout “whale” move. He appeared to choke or cough after the water went down the wrong way, then briefly got down on the floor before getting back up.
The clip quickly went viral, with fans sharing concern for Harry’s health and questioning whether anyone from his team checked on him in the moment.
Harry appeared to be doing okay after the incident and returned to the stage for his next Wembley Stadium show on Saturday (June 27), one day after the fall.
Why were fans especially worried?
The incident happened amid an extreme heat wave in the U.K., where temperatures broke June records this week.
The country reached 37.3 degrees Celsius, or more than 99 degrees Fahrenheit, on Friday, marking the third day in a row that the U.K. broke its June temperature record.
Harry also appeared visibly sweaty during the show, with sweat showing through the back of his shirt.
Wembley Stadium had announced temporary hot-weather measures for Harry’s June 26 and June 27 concerts, including allowing guests to bring 500ml metal or hard plastic water bottles, reducing bottled water prices by 50 percent, permitting small handheld fans, and urging fans to stay hydrated.
The venue said the changes were introduced because of the “exceptionally warm weather forecast” and were intended to support “the comfort and wellbeing” of guests attending the concerts.
While the heat wave added added to fans’ concerns, Harry has not publicly said the heat caused the onstage moment.
