lcd screen falls on dancer price

One of the dancers who was critically injured during a concert by Hong Kong boy band Mirror is still under intensive care, with a high chance that his damaged nerves “cannot totally recover.”

The dancer’s father — Reverend Derek Li Shing-lam — has been regularly updating the public on the status of his son, Mo Li Kai-yin, since the July 28 incident.

According to a translation by the South China Morning Post, his father wrote in a social media post: “Every time [my wife and I] stand beside Kai-yin’s bed, the bitterness in our hearts is indescribable. Our active son is now helpless on the bed, his line of sight being only the cold ceiling every day.”

On Saturday night, he discussed his son’s diagnosis for the first time, saying that there is a 95% chance his vertebrae and sensory nerves may not fully recover. He also shared that they will be seeking acupuncture treatment next.

Li Kai-yin was hit by an LED screen that fell onto the stage while he was performing with Mirror at the Hong Kong Coliseum. He suffered serious bodily injuries that threatened to leave him paralyzed from the neck down.

In addition to calling for prayers, Li Shing-lam also said that his son was transferred to another intensive care unit at Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Yau Ma Tei due to COVID-19-related complications. Although the details of the dancer’s brain trauma remain unclear, the Reverend shared that his son had “hope his parents could share more about their past with him.”

The accident occurred during a group performance when an LED video screen hanging above the stage fell and hit two dancers who were standing directly underneath. They were knocked to the ground and appeared to be unconscious, while the rest of the crew was stunned. The two performers were rushed to the hospital with the other dancer suffering serious head injuries, although he remained in stable condition.

His post said: A horrible accident erupted as a Hong Kong singing and dancing boy band was hosting their first concert, injuring at least two dancers.

DANCER Lee Kai-yin, who sustained serious injuries after being hit by an elevated giant screen while performing at the concert of Hong Kong boy band Mirror, has regained consciousness, China Press reported.

“My son is now awake and can communicate briefly. We pray that with God’s grace, he will have the opportunity to recover, meet with others and return to the stage as soon as possible,” he said.

Shing-lam also hopes that the inter-departmental task force set up by the Hong Kong government to probe the incident would come up with constructive recommendations to ensure the safety of performers in the future.

Wildlife and National Parks Department director-general Datuk Abdul Kadir Abu Hashim said its enforcement team raided the man’s house in a joint operation with Bukit Aman’s Internal Security and Public Order Department around 12.45pm on Aug 1 and seized the tiger skin, which was believed to have come from a Malayan Tiger, an endangered species estimated to number fewer than 200 in the country.

The sixteen-by-ten foot screen fell on the neck of Mo Lee Kai-yin, 27, before it toppled on another performer, Chang Tsz-fung, 29, at around 10.30pm during a concert in the Hong Kong Coliseum.

The dancers were rushed to Queen Elizabeth Hospital and it is believed that the impact of the screen dislocated the third and fourth section of Lee"s cervical spine, according to South China Morning Post.

Culture Secretary Kevin Yeung Yun-Hung said the investigation may last weeks and that experts would look at whether suspension wires failed because of the material they were made with or because of how they were operated.

He said: "We will embark on a very detailed investigation with support of relevant departments and some professionals to make sure we delve deep into the cause of the incident.

HONG KONG — One dancer remained in critical condition after a large, heavy video screen fell from the ceiling during a concert by a popular boy band during a concert in Hong Kong on Thursday, officials said.

Two male dancers were hurt when the LED screen fell at a Mirror concert at the Hong Kong Coliseum, The Washington Postreported. One of them was discharged from an area hospital but the other remains in critical condition with neck injuries, according to Variety and the South China Morning Post.

“One of the injured is staying in the intensive care unit in serious condition and underwent an operation (Friday),” the Hospital Authority said in a statement. “Accompanied by his family, the other injured person in stable condition was discharged this afternoon.”

While government officials have not named the two dancers, local media outlets have identified the men as Mo Lee Kai-yin, 27, who remains hospitalized; and Chang Tsz-fung, 29, who was released, according to Variety.

Mirror, a 12-member song and dance group, is popular in Hong Kong for its pop music in Cantonese, also known as Cantopop, The Washington Post reported. The group was performing when the screen fell at about 10:35 p.m. local time.

The screen directly landed on one dancer before toppling onto another as members in the audience screamed in horror, according to The Associated Press.

Kevin Yeung Yun-hung, Hong Kong’s secretary for culture, sports and tourism, told reporters on Friday that one of the screen’s suspension cables had broken.

According to the Leisure and Cultural Services Department, which manages the coliseum, each screen measured 210 square feet, The New York Times reported.

Citing unnamed medical sources, the South China Morning Postreported that Mo underwent eight hours of surgery at Queen Elizabeth Hospital on Friday. His head and lungs were injured and his third and fourth cervical vertebrae were dislocated, Variety reported.

Fans attending a concert for the boy band Mirror were left shocked after a giant screen fell and crushed a dancer’s neck, potentially paralyzing them from the waist down.

At the Hong Kong Coliseum in Hung Hom on Friday, Mo Lee Kai-yin, 27, was hit on the head by a giant 16-by-10-footscreen that crashedonto his neck. Another dancer, Chang Tsz-fung, 29, was also injured in the incident.

After an overnight procedure and another eight-hour surgery, doctors were able to stabilize the dancer. Potential paralysis from the neck down will depend on his recovery process and whether his damaged nerves grow back.

Authorities immediately investigated the accident and found that one of the two metal cords holding up the screen had snapped during the concert. An investigation is currently underway as experts try to figure out what exactly caused the suspension wires to fail. The concert’s various contractors, including Engineering Impact and Hip Hing Loong, will be participating in the investigation with authorities.

Held at the Hong Kong Coliseum, the concert was the fourth in a series of twelve scheduled for Cantopop boy band MIRROR. Video clips circulating on social media show members Anson Lo and Edan Lui performing with a dozen dancers when one of several LED screens suspended above the stage fell loose.

The screen appeared to land directly on one dancer’s head and body as it fell on its edge before toppling onto another performer as onlookers screamed in disbelief. The other performers rushed to help those who the giant screen had hit.

The falling LED screen is the latest in a series of safety concerns at MIRROR’s concerts. Member Frankie Lui appeared to lose his footing and fall off the stage on Tuesday, clips on social media show. The same night, an online petition launched about safety concerns at MIRROR concerts, having gathered over 13,000 signatures from fans. The petition urges organizers to ensure the band’s safety and that of its dancers and to refrain from using “unnecessary stage mechanisms” such as raised platforms.

ViuTV, the entertainment company that created and manages the 12-member boy band, has yet to respond to requests for comment. MIRROR debuted in 2018 as part of ViuTV’s reality talent show. The group has since skyrocketed in popularity in Hong Kong and is credited with the revival of Cantopop.

Unfortunately, MIRROR is not the first group to experience a potentially lethal falling screen. In 2012, a monitor weighing more than two tons fell on drum technician Scott Johnson, killing him instantly and injuring three others. The scaffolding collapsed just an hour before a scheduled Radiohead performance at Downsview Park in Toronto.

DOUGLAS COUNTY, Ore. – Law enforcement is receiving FALSE reports of an active shooter at various Douglas County Schools. At this time, all reports are false. However, law enforcement is responding to each report and taking each report seriously. Law enforcement is working in partnership with all schools to ensure safety of students and staff.

Parents may have a reaction to want to pick up their child from school and we urge parents to please not do that. Doing so can result in additional chaos and panic as well as detract law enforcement from focusing on their assigned tasks.

“We believe these to be swatting incidents to instigate police response and generate panic among responders and community members,” Lt. Brad O’Dell said. “There have been similar incidents occurring nationwide for at least the past 24 hours. Law Enforcement will respond to and assess each incident appropriately.”

Lt O’Dell also recommends that the community avoid calling 9-1-1 or the non-emergency number to check on the status of these incidents or to inquire about picking up students. “The 9-1-1 center is being overrun with these calls making managing an already stressful incident even more so,” he said. “This also prevents delays in answering other life or death emergency calls and dispatching the appropriate resources.”

Shocking footage has emerged showing the moment a massive video screen suspended above a stage has fallen, crushing members of a ‘boy band’ performing below.

Two dancers were rushed to hospital after being injured by the falling screen during a performance by the group, Mirror, at a ‘Cantopop’ concert in Hong Kong on Thursday.

The videos circulating on social media show Mirror members Anson Lo and Edan Lui performing with a dozen dancers when one of several suspended screens above the stage comes crashing down.

Video of the incident appears to show the screen crushing one dancer after hitting his head and body, before toppling over onto another performer as the audience screams in horror.

Earlier social media videos appeared to show band member Frankie Lui lose his footing and fall off the edge of the stage while giving a speech on Tuesday.

In a social media post after the concert, Lui wrote, “Sorry for making everyone worry. I was too focused on my words. Only some bruises. I’m a lucky man,” according to theSouth China Morning Post.

A falling video screen struck and injured two dancers on the concert stage as Cantopop band Mirror performed Thursday night in Hong Kong. Video clips circulated on social media showed Mirror members Anson Lo and Edan Lui performing with a dozen dancers when one of several suspended LED screens crashed down on the stage.

The falling screen directly hit one dancer on the head and body before toppling onto another performer as the audience screamed in horror. The videos showed that the rest of the performers on stage rushed to help those hit by the screen. Police said the two male dancers were conscious when they were sent to the Queen Elizabeth Hospital. Local media reported the hospital said one of the dancers was in serious condition while the other was stable.

Variety reported that the dancer who was in a stable condition has been discharged from the hospital. On the other hand, health officials have been trying to get the family of the dancer critically injured to meet him bypassing the quarantine period mandatory for those arriving from overseas. Police said three audience members were also taken to the hospital, one who felt unwell and two others in a state of shock, but they required no medical treatment.

The concert was halted after the incident, which occurred during Mirror’s fourth of 12 scheduled concerts at Hong Kong Coliseum. At Tuesday’s concert, band member Frankie Lui appeared to lose his footing and fall off the edge of the stage while giving a speech, according to clips on social media. An online petition about safety issues of Mirror concerts was launched the same night and has garnered thousands of signatures. The petition urged organizers to ensure safety for Mirror and its dancers and refrain from using unnecessary stage mechanisms or raised platforms.

Viu, the company that created and manages Mirror, did not respond to an emailed request for comment. The 12-member band has skyrocketed in popularity in Hong Kong and has been credited with the revival of Cantopop.

"If we find anything suspicious, or if any person or unit is involved in misconduct, we will immediately report it to the police," the statement read.

Secretary for Culture, Sports and Tourism Kevin Yeung told reporters Friday the government was "very concerned" about the incident and that an investigation would be conducted, likely over several weeks.

"We will do research to find out whether (the steel cable broke) due to an operational or material problem. It cannot currently be concluded at this stage," said Yeung, adding that the incident will affect "all future performances."
