Gene Simmons Firebreathing Stunt Goes Bad

KISS End of the Dignity Tour Berlin 22nd June 2023.

[@pauli.vanili]

How close was he from missing all together and spearing someone in the front row? These geriatrics are becoming dangerous.

[@thefonzkiss]

That’s the $3500 sword stab upgrade package.

[@pauli.vanili]

@@thefonzkiss straight through the wallet pocket! 😆

[@patkennedy1973]

I have never seen him miss. Give it a rest.

[@pauli.vanili]

@patkennedy1973 ahhh, the ever present, perpetualy butthurt kisstard with zero personality always appears.

WISH i WAS SITTING IN THOSE SEATS 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Weed Me

[@badhabitz69]

Spinal Tap would be proud!!

[@rockinyouallnight]

That King Kong chest thumping was worth the price of admission.

[@leokimvideo]

Paul missed the fire party fun because he was on the oxygen tank being revived

[@smarsh1916]

saw this same trick during the Revenge tour in Toronto...the sword bounced into the front row...safety first!

[@kooldude1992]

Paul missed his moment. "Did ya see that? You know there's some people that think we're up here pretending, but people, there's no faking what you just witnessed. This is a live rock and roll show and you're gonna see the good... The bad... And the firey! LEMME HEAR YA!"

[@andrewhatcher2702]

Paul was to busy giving another middle finger to the R&R HOF. The guy cant let it go. Every show its “hey KISS is in the HOF, but we dont wanna be!” Ok Paul. Tell another lie 🤣

[@KISSbestfan]

Woooohoooo Venue on fire!

[@ukiahsguitarsolos3436]

Still always fun to watch this!

"End Of The Dignity" tour? I thought it was "Music From The Elderly"

[@jonathanbaird8109]

My favorite part is that he just stands there and stares (as if they're in the way) while they clean up his mess, then proceeds to go back to playing like nothing happened.

[@KISSbestfan]

Tbh show must go on

[@Alexandria87]

😂😂😂😂😂

[@pauli.vanili]

Yep, pure arrogance. I remember when paul threw a hissyfit and threw his guitar down as a roady came to change it, these guys are full of their own self-importance.

[@abdullahmohammady7568]

Its the div props man that nearly burnt the place down 😂

[@chrismoody9855]

What's he supposed to do? He's in platform boots & full gear. He isn't exactly mobile. I certainly don't think he intended for that to happen, just to sit back & watch mayhem unfold.

[@jonahdaniels4212]

Good thing they already had the sirens on.

[@jaidanmckeich6883]

I hope kiss keep going after this take those fools for every cent they got and plus every gig they do there is a new disaster so thats hilarious in itself

[@thefonzkiss]

See you at the 2024 Vegas residency!

@@thefonzkisscould it be that they do a residency here in Vegas? I mean, knowing Gene….

[@jesse-ll3dh]

Gene is like a little baby. Pounding his chest from the ego boost of fire. He has the mentality of a five year old kid.

[@peterdiamantakiou]

And paul says this line-up is the best and the shows are perfect...yeah ok😂

[@giraffesareselfish9563]

This just in, Tommy Thayer will be dressed as a fire extinguisher for the remainder of the tour....carry on.

Well, Spinal Tap at least had better material

[@jamescarriere8478]

He couldn’t see didn’t have his glasses on

[@BritneyFthenewkissfan12]

First of all I did not realized that Firebreathing stunts could have gone worse and second I’m barley scared of Firebreathing and I could be scared of it and this wouldn’t happen

[@stopkafirophobia]

Ok Britney, that's enough internet for you.

Drugs are bad, umm k

[@josephskuse9115]

Quick call the fire department!!! Malfunction!!!!

[@flinkergamer6525]

I was there

[@thefonzkiss]

Did you ask for your money back?

[@russellj.s.257]

In 73 while performing opening for Blue Oyster Cult he did the fire breathing stunt and the fire ricocheted and hit the side of his head caused his hair to catch fire.

[@giraffesareselfish9563]

And Gene is still wearing that same wig today

[@charlesbronson4282]

Gene just gourded a fan for 3500 bucks

[@syndicatedsatellite7288]

Elderly people should stay away from doing fire stunts...

[@BatmanFan2274]

I was expecting him to set his hair on fire again that's happened a lot

[@thefonzkiss]

I think his wig is flame-retardant

Bloody ell tech guy a bit slow eh?

[@roxtar38]

I know it's nostalgia, but jeezus, the blood and firebreathing are such tired gimmicks. Even with nostalgia, they are boring AF.

[@Cliffhopper977]

Yeah was old after the reunion tour 25 years ago

[@abdullahmohammady7568]

How useless was the props man instead of just standing the thing up, wraps a cloth round the flame to cause a more dangerous situation 😮

[@markusaurelius777]

Looks like he wrapped the cloth around the sword blade, not the fire HAHAHA !!!

[@thefonzkiss]

@@markusaurelius777 the fact that he had ten thousand people watching him freaked him out!

[@giraffesareselfish9563]

The towel is wet and that is what is always used to put out the flame.

[@thefonzkiss]

@@giraffesareselfish9563 yeah so put it on the fire not on the stick.

[@spaceman87186]

Paul on London shows intros cold gin etc my god needs to stay silent or just play the songs and go back to using the full backing on some songs again.

[@thefonzkiss]

He should mime the intros as well as the singing!

[@martinone9]

That’s happened before,he’s caught his hair on fire too. Things happen but when have you ever heard in 50 years of them performing that there was a major malfunction or that an audience was in danger? Love or hate them they are all in all pros. I’ve seen them a few times in the past and they’re entire show is 💯 percent scripted and choreographed.

[@thefonzkiss]

The vocals are mostly scripted and choreographed you’re right.

[@martinone9]

@@thefonzkiss pretty much,seems to be a trend these days unfortunately.

[@pauli.vanili]

I'm pretty sure Ace getting electrocuted on stage was a major malfunction, there's also that fan that sued them for getting injured by Stanley's broken guitar that he through into the audience, but hey don't let reality get in the way of your story.

[@Zoetropeification]

Then there was the Cleveland Agora show in 1974 when the drum riser was stuck in the elevated position. Peter Criss was asphyxiated and passed out from the fumes of the pyrotechnics on stage. He was admitted to a hospital.
