Ryan Seacrestremembers the time hefell off his chairon live television fondly.
TheLive with Kelly and Ryanhost, 45, opened up about the televised spill during his appearance onThe Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallonon Wednesday.
“Normally, we have little balloons that fall down. Well, he went big and got these grand, gorgeous, shiny disco balloons that caught my eye when they first started to come down in the new year,” he shared. “I couldn’t stop staring at them, so I’m trying to catch one of the balloons.”
According to Seacrest, his chair tipped over as he was reaching for a balloon. Fortunately, he said, he did not knock over co-hostKelly Ripain the fall.
“Ripa’s lucky,” he recalled. “There was a moment where I almost brought her down with me.”
TheAmerican Idolhost went on to joke that the incident made him realize the studio had a “hardwood floor that clearly was just cement with a sticker on top.”
“I’ve got a bruise on my thigh,” he added.
The unexpected moment occurred on Jan. 7 when Seacrest attempted to catch a gold balloon. As he reached back with his arms, hischair began to tip, slipping out from under him.
“Oh my God!” Ripa, 49, yelled as the audience gasped.
She quickly got up and helped Seacrest, who could be heard laughing on the ground.
“Oh my gosh, he’s fine,” Ripa said at the time.
Poking fun at himself, Seacrest popped up, grabbed the gold balloon and jokingly announced, “I got it!”
He later posted a video of the fall to his Instagram, writing, “First fumble of the new season. Hope I make the playoffs….”
