Hi everyone! How well do you know Def Leppard? Ooh so many surprises! Let’s Connect: linktr.ee/mrspenpal

[@ricknbacker5626]

Hi Blessing. We worked exclusively on Can't Help Falling In Love at yesterday's 7-hour session. I would love to correspond with you on the results. Are you on WhatsApp? RNB

[@MrsPenPal]

Wow thank you! Rick, send me an email. My email is in the description. From there we can set something up.

[@ricknbacker5626]

Got it

My Favourite Band! 😎🔥🤘🎸

[@carriemichelle322]

Yes, he lost an arm, but the beautiful part is that the band didn't hire another drummer! They stood by Rick's side and waited for him to recover and learn how to drum with 1 arm. That's goodness!! ❤

[@MrsPenPal]

That’s the spirit! True friendship ✨

[@carlop.7182]

yes, talk about supportive friends. They didn't choose the easy way of replacing him.

[@MsGeoffh]

very true real friendship.

[@dillonsronce2583]

That's what real friends do.

[@MsGeoffh]

@@dillonsronce2583 100% for sure!

[@datacipher]

They all have distinct voices - there is one song where they all sing lines separately but it’s rare! But they are all extremely good singers and the harmony is super tight even live.

[@niallmcentee9400]

The band are from Sheffield, England. Rick lost his arm in a car crash on Dec 31, 1984. The band refused to give up on him. They bought a house in Dublin, Ireland where they rehearsed and Rick worked on a specially adapted drum kit for almost 2 years before he was ready to go back on stage with the band. The rest is history

[@donaldshrader4612]

Def Leppard is touring to the day.

[@MrsPenPal]

That’s amazing

[@gerardcote8391]

The whole Hysteria album is just one great song after another. Recommend also listening to the song Hysteria.

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

Def Leppard fan for 35 YEARS! 🔥

[@VerchielxKanda]

He lost his arm back in the 80s in a horrific car accident and thought his career was over. His bandmates, who he knew since he was 15 years old, didn't give up on him and waited until he healed and re-taught himself how to play. He has a specialized kit, with foot pedals emulating what his left arm could do. He is nicknamed The Thunder God.

[@kingscorpion7346]

I love it so much when someone listens to Def Leppard for the first time (particularly this song), enjoying the guitar, the lyrics, the DRUMMING... and then they realize-- the drummer ONLY HAS ONE ARM??? yep, legendary Rick Allen, whom the group themselves call the Thunder God! I've been a fan of theirs since 1982.

[@skorpio156]

Growing up in the 80s and 90s was soooooo AWESOME!!!

[@DonaldShrader]

Def Leppard still touring. My #1 band. 👍

[@willrickeyrun]

There is a movie called "Hysteria: The Def Leppard Story" it covers how the band started, Rick Allen's car accident and how the band stuck with him.

[@dennytaylor1005]

I have never seen a reactor slow down their viewing to see what is going on. GOOD ON YOU!!! And .... down the Def L rabbit hole.

[@MrsPenPal]

😂 thanks for watching nice to meet you Denny ✨

[@mstover2809]

She is the 2nd person I have watched doing a double-take after noticing Rick is only using one arm!

[@melissagerber7231]

I've seen reviewers stop and rewind to see if they saw right, jump out of their seat, at least stop the video and ask viewers what was going on. One didn't say anything until after the video was over,and looked up the drummer to read about the missing arm. A bunch will miss it. They'll even comment on the drum kit and Rick playing barefoot,everything but the empty left sleeve.

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

ULTIMATE STRIPPER SONG! 🔥

[@christopherferrarelli2262]

The drummer, Rick Allen, lost his left arm in a car accident on New Years Day 1984. He was able to have it reattached, but because there were signs of infections he had to have it amputated. He spent a number of years going through therapy, mental discipline, and training through the use of a system where he could use a series of foot pedals to recreate certain drum beats for songs. It's no wonder that lead singer Joe Elliott calls Rick Allen "The Thunder God".

[@karenglenn6707]

This band, never the same since the death of the amazingly talented but sensitive Steve Clark on lead guitar. A major songwriter, they have never reached the heights of their previous success without him. I adore him and will always grieve for him, lost way too young at only 30, 8th January 1991. He never felt good enough but he was and is still so loved by thousands of us.

[@Zappy1210]

After Rick lost his arm in a car accident he told the band "You better find a new drummer." The band told him "You better learn to play with one arm because we aren't doing it without you." True friends.

[@fernandonavarrette4522]

Drummer is one of the founding members. Started out with both arms but lost one of them in an automobile accident. He had a special drum kit built in order for him to continue to play with one arm.

[@pamagnolia]

Fabulous song. They are a great band! Many good songs. You were great!!😅

[@MrsPenPal]

Thanks for watching Pa ✨💯

[@jeffkuipers1030]

i have been listening to this band since i was in high school in the early 80's

[@wolfie35p]

one of my favourite rock groups of the 80's, I love this song and it's on my playlist, I've heard it more than 100 times, easily, and never get bored of hearing it, love to see the reaction of people who pay attention, and notice that the drummer has only one arm too. He lost his left arm in a bad car smash, and had to learn how to play the drums with one arm and his feet, you can learn all about the band and their career in the movie called Hysteria, the Def Leppard story.

[@R777-RLM]

They are from the UK. I think, their earlier songs had both a serious aspect and a party aspect; later were songs like this, or love themed songs - at least the ones I know. Thank You, for your video.

[@MrsPenPal]

That’s interesting. Thanks for watching and sharing your comments ✨

Rick the drummer is also a PHENOMENAL ARTIST! His pieces are beautiful! There is an interview I believe with him & his Gallery on KZbin

[@karenmandeville7116]

drummer lost his arm in a car accident. and the band stuck with him while he recovered and built a drum kit he could do with one arm and two feet. great respect to them all!

[@MrsPenPal]

I agree with you respect to them 💯

[@jimthar17]

This was the song that got me into rock and metal. I can still remember exactly where I was when the World Premiere happened on MTV. After seeing this video premiere I was never the same. My music taste COMPLETELY changed instantly. Also, If you think this one is good, you should check out songs like 'Rock rock til you drop' and 'Stagefright'.

[@andrewmccormack4295]

I'm impressed you noticed Rick having only one arm and took the time to backtracked and use slo/mo to check it out.Great reaction.

[@MrsPenPal]

Thanks for watching I appreciate you ✨

[@mikep9792]

So many hits. Try Rock of Ages, photograph, Bringing on the Heartbreak, hysteria

[@jimhawkins3897]

Rick Allen Few rock musicians are better qualified to talk about the intersection of music and healing than Rick Allen, drummer of Def Leppard. The band's album 'Pyromania' was selling millions of copies in the U.S. and their videos were all over MTV when in 1984 he lost his left arm in a car crash.

[@MrsPenPal]

Awwh thanks for sharing I can imagine how tough it was for him so inspirational to see he did not give up on his dreams ✨

[@AlexanderCalderon-kd6mh]

I saw them at a free concert at ft. lauderdale, florida in 1999! Two of my favorite songs of theirs are Rock of ages & Foolin'

[@chapmaned24]

Saw them twice in concert of this same tour! Awesome!

[@martinhines4630]

From my hometown Sheffield I actually went to the school they played their first gig, westfield school. Seen them a few times still sound great today

[@johnfaulk7775]

Rick Allen the drummer, after achieving success in Def Leppard, had a tragic car accident and lost his left arm in the process. The band was determined to carry on with him and waited for him to learn to drum with one arm (he uses his feet for many sounds now).

[@acehigh79]

Ahhhh my favorite band! These guys are so good live! Seen them 3 times. They are from Sheffield, England. As for the drummer 😮😮 his name is Rick Allen. The God of Thunder lol....he lost his arm in a horrible car accident while the hysteria album was still in production. At the hospital Rick looked at Joe Elliot (lead vocalist) and said once I heal up I'll be back mate. Joe said something like ummm ok.....and the band stood by him! They waited for him to recover and Ric basically invented most of the foot pedal tech he uses to play the parts he's supposed to play with the missing arm. The first show they did after Ric recovered they had a back up drummer off stage just in case. Joe looked over to the backup after 3 songs...and the guy was gone lol! Ric killed it and the rest is history. Seeing this man live is a religious experience!

[@patrickwest2288]

I saw Def Leppard on their first tour in the US. They opened up for the Scorpions and Jusas Priest 🤘

[@mathewpierce6385]

There favorite band is queen. They love singing in for back up in !

Hello beautiful Mrs. PenPal you always look stunning!! I have missed seeing you. Yes, the drummer has only one arm.

[@MrsPenPal]

Hi Brian nice to see you! Hope you are well! Thanks for sharing ✨

[@davidsuttles101]

I love the fact you realized he is a one armed drummer! Great reaction!

[@MrsPenPal]

Awwh thanks for watching he is so talented

[@karlsmith2570]

8:35 "Where Are They From?" In answer to that question, Mrs. Penpal, the band hails from Sheffield England

[@sarablack2547]

They're from Sheffield north England. You can see in the video that rick allen clearly has his right arm. He also wears shorts with bare feet so he has the freedom to use his specially adapted drums so his leg can do what his left arm used to do. The Hysteria album came out when i was a teenso I'm very attached to it.

[@davidpalahinjak8954]

Drummer has 1 arm! 🔥

[@ShadowBanned904]

I once met Def Leppard drummer Rick Allen. I found him to be rather disarming! Too soon!! That's about all.

[@michelleosborne1431]

Rick Allen is still drumming and he has interviews on KZbin including how he uses his drums.

[@rebeccaembrey7886]

Hysteria

[@onamakemakcooking7187]

Wow super video

[@markwise2923]

Many have explained about what happened to their drummer, but You also mentioned the backing vocals also having similar textures. While they all have good vocals that similarity is because Joe Elliot, the lead singer will also do backing vocals in the studio. Since this is the official video and not actually live recording, Joe can be heard also helping on backing vocals and giving them that really full sound.

[@MrsPenPal]

Thanks Mark

[@karlsmith2570]

5:20 In answer to your question, Mrs penpal, drummer Rick Allen, was involved in a car accident during the band's hiatus after wrapping up their tour in support of their previous album, "Pyromania", and the car had flipped throwing Rick from the car but his left arm was caught in the shoulder strap of the seat belt and pulled his arm off. Thankfully, because of the fact that Rick's accident occurred near the home of a retired nurse who'd quickly rendered aid, the doctors were initially able to reattach Rick's arm but were forced to amputate it again because Rick had developed a serious infection

[@MrsPenPal]

Oh wow thanks for sharing he went through a lot

[@karlsmith2570]

@MrsPenPal he still has PTSD resulting from that car wreck too

[@RichardRitenour0522]

If you like this one listen to Rock Brigade from their second album 'On Through The Night', the drums, the vocals, the guitar riffs...hard rock at it's best! Been a listener since 1979!

May I suggest the next Def Leppard song be, Hysteria? 😊 It's on the same album

[@scottlambert2949]

Yes he lost his arm in a bad car wreck and he played with electronic drums ever since and another great song by Def Leppard is called " love bites"

[@carlop.7182]

looking at your smile, I guess that you would love to have been in that crowd, very close to the stage. They're still alive and touring, but older and not as good looking. Have a nice day.

[@alonzocoyethea6148]

There's never a good time to lose your arm, but the new electronic drums were just coming out and you could set them to do 2 hits for 1 strike among other tricks. Combined with Allen's own ability and determination, he was just as good as any 2-handed rock drummer.( I've played on a few of the kits--lots of fun ) If the accident had happend 10 years prior, they may have had to replace him.

[@hsharry8825]

The drummer only has 1 arm because he lost his arm in a car accident.

Such a determination and power he plays with. Happy to encounter such a courageous man glad he survived and kept pursuing his passion
