The Tab has learnt that a man has fallen off the top balcony in the main room of Rock City during tonight’s Crisis.

Eyewitnesses saw the victim swaying before he eventually fell, plummeting the 3 meters to the dance floor.

Crisis staff were quick on the scene attending to the victim straight away. The incident occurred at around 12:45am, with paramedics attending the scene in just under four minutes.

Police were then called and arrived just before 1am.

He was then carried off on a stretcher to rapturous applause from onlookers, he was conscious and no CPR was performed.

The victim is believed to be a member of the Rugby team who all headed to QMC after the ambulance left.

Some sources have told us that the victim may be a Lenton and Wortley fresher, but this is unconfirmed.
