- The band had no idea what was going to happen when they visited Stockholm for the season premiere of Skavlan talk show. Video of Grohl breaking his leg can be seen here: • Dave Grohl breaks leg,...
Boxer Cecilia Brækhus was also present for the interview.

The fact that we will never see this duo again - never see these SOULMATES again - …… heartbreaking.
This hurts so much dude
I can’t stop watching interviews of Dave and Taylor…such a beautiful duo…Dave always having his brother by his side in every talk show, interview or radio interview. They were each other’s OTHER HALF. I’m so heartbroken for Dave 😭
heart crushing, i've been to 5 or so FF shows and i am very grateful to have seen them.
Still hurts 😭
Rest In Peace Taylor
Please welcome Dave Grohl, and blonde Dave Grohl
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
For YEARS I thought they were half brothers. They're NEVER apart
I always thought they were brothers, but blonde Dave Grohl works better
Why he always drags that drummer around with him?
That's what I thought for a second.
The year this happened, my son bought a FF shirt saying the “Break a Leg Tour.” He put it on, tripped at the bottom of the stairs, and broke his hand.
OK thats awesome, oh wait thats horrible... but cool ? I dont know
HAND? Pfffff casual
That’s awesome !
Can't even break the right limb? What a disappointment, I'd disown him.
@@TerkanTyr 🤣
Love how right after the hug the doctor immediately looks at his leg and uses his doctor vision to make sure it healed properly.
I noticed that!! Haha.
Love this Doctor!
He was watching as Dave left as well. Professional interest.
Working in a hospital in a surgical recovery unit. Can confirm. Medical curiosity Trump‘s fanboy instincts😂
@@flankeen324 he was checking his gait!!
The fact that a world known rock star is cheering like a 5 year old for a doctor is amazing
Dave in a nutshell. Rock & Roll & Warm & Fuzzy.
Cheese Why is this amazing a "world known Rockstars " is a normal human being too
Yeah.
But not all rock stars are this down to earth.
Some of them are so far up their own asses. That they are far from normal.
Dave is great.
Bero Rery I know, that's what people often forget
Hawkins once said "I'm not a rock star, I'm a fucking musician" and that just sums it all up. Amazing guys.
You know, whether you like the Foo Fighters' music or not, you HAVE to admit, that Dave is not only one of the nicest guys in music, if not the nicest, but the fact that he broken his leg and continued playing for 2 1/2 hours shows how dedicated he is to his fans. You have to respect that, absolutely.
I really don't like Foo Fighters or even Nirvana very much, but I love Dave! Such a great dude.
Yeah, I'm becoming a Dave Grohl Fan
I agree. And also, he know the value of a concert to fans. He is a 100 percent live musician
I'm sick of the crap people give Dave.
AMEN
Big up to the host, I love that he actually let the guys talk, rathar than interrupt them every few seconds with his next question, like every other interviewer. You could see he was enthralled by Daves stories, as we all were.
I like his style of interviewing. It is like Graham Norton, let the guests loose and see what happens. The American talk shows could learn a lot, especially Fallon.
Jimmy Fallon could learn a thing or two. European talk shows are so much more relaxed and less interrupted than American.
@@randymacdonald492 I couldn't agree more with you there! Even as an American I can't stand most of our "talk shows" because of this. I've always loved watching European talk shows because they're more entertaining and you get a better feel for the guests and their stories without all the bs interruptions
@@soulessshadow5356 Well you know, it hasn't always been like that. Orson Wells talking about meeting Hitler and Churchill on The Dick Cavett-show is about as fascinating as talk shows get czcams.com/video/G_PUUHLknDI/video.html
@@soulessshadow5356 so true man so true
I remember Sir Elton John played a concert in the pouring rain when he had a 103F fever & pneumonia. He told his fans, "if you can stand out there in the pouring rain to see me in concert, you better believe I'm going to perform". Musicians who love their art & their fans to that degree deserve massive kudos.
There's most certainly a few that I don't agree with on this statement, but absolutely for the most part musicians love their fans. Especially the one's who're fully dedicated to the craft and not just in it for money. Axel Rose, by the way, is one of the musicians I would say doesn't, and another WAS Ivan from FFDP before he got sober. Axel Rose is just a total douchebag, but Ivan is fantastic now that he's not constantly drunk.
super human. i had pnuemonia and couldnt even stand
@@soulessshadow5356 Well for the record, G N' R played in Missoula, MT on Friday, August 13, 2021 and played for THREE HOURS to make up for Wolfgang Van Halen's band having to cancel due to COVID. And G N' R COULDN'T HAVE APPEARED TO HAVE BEEN MORE HAPPY to be up there playing extra songs for the sake of the crowd. Axl looked generally happy to be there, so maybe don't paint with such a convicting brush. People have moments. Learn something.
I just sent them my massive kudos.
Let’s not forget Freddie Mercury at Live Aid
Grohl is not crazy, he has a heart of gold. He had the humility to think about what every person in that crowd did in order to make it to that concert. That’s not crazy, that’s love.
I jammed with a really famous rock drummer once in the studio (can't say who, sorry), and he told me all about that feeling. During a song, he broke a stick and accidentally shoved it through his hand - all the way through - in front of 20,000 people. He didn't describe his reaction in terms of how he felt, just what happened. He yanked it out, grabbed another stick, finished the song, and didn't feel a thing. He taped it up and played the rest of the show with blood splashed all over his drum heads and his forearm covered in blood, which the fans of his band probably thought was cool. He said the energy of playing stadiums and arenas in a major rock band (they were headlining the big stadiums) has a way of eliminating the self and you become part of the experience, not the one who's bringing the experience. The idea of breaking that connection was just unthinkable. He swore he felt no pain at all, and he'd had no drugs or alcohol. It feels like the same story Dave Grohl told in this clip.
I play rock bass in bars, and my biggest audience has been maybe 2000 people, and I can relate to that feeling and that attitude, but I've never been so into it that I could have my hand impaled or break my leg and not feel it. But I know where that feeling comes from. A good rock show is far greater than the sum of its parts (musicians + audience). The audience feeds the musicians as much as the musicians feed the audience. It gets like a screaming locomotive. You can't stop it.
@@beenaplumber8379 I love this.
@@beenaplumber8379 god I’d give anything to know who this was
@@ck675 I hope you can understand, he left his band for important personal reasons (no animosity with the band, only love), and he left professional music altogether, permanently. It was for his own good. That's why I have to respect his anonymity. He only did the studio session because he was personal friends with the guy who'd paid for the session. My involvement in the session was also contingent on his anonymity.
When your dreams come true, things aren't always as you thought they'd be. Life as a touring musician isn't for everyone. I'm not sure I'd survive. There is so much power at play.
You can insert any famous rock drummer into my story. I believe they would all react the same.
Totally agreeing 👍 I love musicians since I come from a musical family. What he did was nutty, but very noble. Go, Dave!!!
Watching Dave fangirl out for his doctor is actually more badass and rock n' roll than most of the shit out there today
"He is a Swedish doctor, and he is here."
"GAAAAAAASP!"
"He's a proper doctor!"
@@raresaturn Proper fucked.
I read this comment and I still wasn't ready! Also, I'm watching at 2x speed! 🤣🤣🤣
I have to say, I REALLY appreciate this man letting his guests speak and not constantly interrupting and making stupid jokes.
The way Dave hugged that doctor was so sincere and genuine as if he was family brought a smile to my face
deez nuts
That gasp and smile when they announced the doctor was there was actually heartwarming, it was like he was told he gets to meet an old friend.
Knowing how generous Dave is (from other events), the doctor probably has free tickets to any Foo Fighters concert in Sweden for the rest of his life.
Dave's reactions when he heard about and then saw the doctor were glorious.
He is such a genuine guy
you can see his enthusiasm and gratitude are truly sincere, that's why we all love the guy
RIP Taylor Hawkins (Feb. 17, 1972 - Mar. 25, 2022) Too young to be gone, amazing drummer, super amazing singer. Rest in peace, brother 🙏🏽
Perfect demonstration of why we all love Dave. So humble, down to earth, and dedicated to his fans.
My sister in law got to meet him 20 years ago. She worked at a locally owned CD store and they had brought him in for promotion and she was the supervisor of the store. She has a picture of them together with his arm around her and she and a couple of other co workers went out to dinner with him at a casual restaurant. She said he was the nicest guy AND told her she reminded him of his sister. I think that was so sweet and nice story!
That Dr. is an honorary Foo Fighter for life now
candie1230 welcome to the band
Dave is the funniest guy telling stories haha
czcams.com/video/1EJM0dWtK4o/video.html
i dont think so. Rampage starts at 3 2 1....
He really has a gift for it. The contrast between him an Taylor (who is himself a really cool guy) is pretty stark. Dave is in his comfort zone entertaining with stories, Taylor wants a kit.
nah corey taylor
The kind of man Grohl is: “I don’t care if I broke my leg. These people paid their hard earned money to see me. WE ARE CONTINUING THE CONCERT!”
i think if they didn't continue the concert the band would have had to pay their own hard earned money...
@@morg9267 They would reschedule or offer a refund but he didn't. He said we are playing...
Dedicated 💪💪💪
i know how that felt imagine if he had not gone into shock the decision would of gone very diferant i can tell you.
This doctor's the kinda person My Hero is written about.
No. That's exactly the opposite of what "My Hero" is about. This guy is not ordinary. He's a REAL hero. You get the distinction? - I guess now you're going to argue while being in the wrong.
Jon Dunmore who hurt you
@@jondunmore4268 But Grohl has specifically said My Hero is about everyday legitimate heroes and not celebrities or widely known "heroes" but go off mate
@@dooper5150 -- The same person who is about to hurt YOU.
Jon Dunmore wat
I once saw the Foo Fighters at the Continental Airlines Arena in 2003, maybe 2004. While there, Dave Grohl looked around at the audience and started talking to us. Out of nowhere, Dave asked the audience if we all thought drugs were cool. Naturally, people began to shout yes, and they cheered very loudly. After hearing the response, Dave came back in a semi-serious tone, and demanded of us 'don't do drugs, drugs aren't cool - look at me... I don't do drugs, and I just sold out the... uhh... (and looked around, unable to remember where he was) the super duper dome!' Absolutely hilarious. I don't remember the exchange word for word, but he definitely said that he sold out the super duper dome because he gave up drugs.
Later that evening, Brian May and Roger Taylor of Queen came out to perform with the Foo Fighters. Dave decided to play drums and had Taylor sing because he said that his voice wasn't good enough to do Freddie Mercury justice. These guys are absolutely incredible in concert. There are very few bands that give better performances than the Foo Fighters, and one of those bands happens to be Queen. Granted, Freddie Mercury has been long gone, but to have the privilege of seeing two members of the greatest band of all time with one of the greatest bands of modern time together on stage was as good as it can get.
Best concert ever. Thank you Dave, Taylor, Brian, and Roger. You guys made that an evening that I'll never forget for as long as I live.
What a fcking awesome experience bro... Nice!
I 100% love that story. I read it 3 times. You made my day.
Yep. I'm more of a metal guy but I love the Foos. Great concerts.
That's because he actually gives a shit about the audience
I once saw the other band he played in during the 90's. What was that band's name? Oh, nevermind...
Taylor is chewing the same piece of gum Dave was chewing since 1990
Ashierkun its going to come back in style
lol
The gum of destiny...
It's so true. XD
Ashierkun he comes off as a typical prime Donna in this. I don’t know if he is but it’s rubbed me the wrong way.
This doctor was beyond great. Holding Dave's ankle for almost 3 hours. How the hell did he stand the pain.
He held Dave's leg for 15 minutes until the cast was put on the leg.
Mac donalds did you watched the video or you just play dumb on purpose
Whiskey probably helped lol
@@macdonalds1972 did you not listen? there was no plaster for a cast, they had to send two nurses to a hospital to get the plaster and pain killers and instead of waiting for them to come back and putting a cast on it they instead went onto the stage and the doctor held his ankle for 2.5 hours and the cast went on after the show.
@@King_Flippy_Nips there is actually a video of the whole concert on CZcams. If you bothered to check your facts, you could see that you are completely wrong.
It is absolutely adorable how excited Dave was to see him.
Hey🌹, how you doing today ?
Dave is the best fuckin' dude in the world! Plus thanks to Skavlan for this gorgeous interview and also for not cleaning all the beautiful rude words in it.
we dont have to censor words in sweden or in any other scandinavian country. It's fucking weird to censor words, everybody knows what cuss word they're using
ZibiaX It's so god damned stupid! It's not gonna' kill the kids to hear swear words.
Best after me, but yes he is the second best!
ZibiaX the Swedish people are amazing. I'm Irish and in France for Euro 16 the Irish and Swedes were having a laugh, dancing in the streets and the French people even put on a party for us because our fans were well behaved and respectful. Unlike the English and the Polish and Russians who had UFC gloves on and gumshields just looking to fight. The Swedish people were amazing. Even the Icelandic people were amazing. As far as swearing I think it's a European thing. We are allowed to sweat like fuck on talk shows, quiz shows anything really. Nobody cares or gets offended. I think it's Americans who don't swear on TV. Despite that their whole country swears. Each to their own I guess. The Swedish are great people with beautiful woman!! And check out Gabriela Quevado. She's Swedish and plays guitar. She's amazing and done some Foo Fighters covers. That woman is an amazing guitar player!! Great story and all the best to all Swedish people from Ireland!! Hope to meet you again.
ZibiaX
It is, yet you can go to
buy a gun very easily...
that’s perfectly fine...
makes sense...
Bieber doesn't show up because he's playing a videogame. Dave breaks his leg and gets back on stage and they keep playing! DAVE IS AWESOME!!
That's because Bieber is a fucking pussy ass bitch, and Dave is practically a god. The best is still Freddie Mercury, literally on his deathbed with AIDS and was still an absolute badass
Johnny Skyfire His last video performance, as well as the song, still sends shivers down my spine...
@@keestuinman2627 bodies aching all the time.
I don't actively seek out news about pathetic cunts.
So did that really happen ? Fucking hell so disgusting.
@@jimmy_the_squid9456 dont forget David bowie. On his deathbed he wrote and sang a new album
Why did I think this guy would live forever? RIP Taylor Hawkins, a legend ❤️❤️❤️❤️
He will live forever
He was already a legend, a legend I was going to see next month. It became real when I got my tickets refunded.
My heart goes out to his family, the Foo family, and fans.
Idk maybe cause Keith Richards at one point had more drugs going through him than through a mexican cartel and somehow lived.
His music and memories will
because legends never die
Grohl sees like one of those very genuine people.
He truly is! As much as he's worth and the fame he has, he's super down to earth and personable.
He's the Keanu reeves of music.
Any other band after a broken leg would have cancelled the show , this just shows you what kind of guy Dave Grohl is. What a class act.
adam cain it's not easy. Happened to me. Adrenaline gets you through it. You don't feel the pain as much.
And there was Chester, who broke His ankle while playing basketball a few hours before the show, came to thé hospital, and came back to play the whole Linkin Park show. What a legend.
Chino Moreno actually broke his foot this year during a show and shrugged it off like nothing ... he continued that show and the whole Deftones tour ... musicians like Dave and Chino are seriously inspiring and act just like someone with a fire burning in their heart for music would
Alsyn Chester broke his leg and we see where he is now. Legend! Oh wait.
yo harrison, what the fuck man?
the doctor had vvvvvvvvvvvvvvip ticket to enjoy the show so closely
Love the fact that Dave really cares about the 50,000 fans on how, every each one of them they made their way to the concert, through thick and thin. That is something we called respecting each other, even though you dont know them. Love you Dave and the Foo's!
Dave is going to be so lost without his soulmate, Taylor. It’s so sad.
I would actually watch late night tv here in the states if we had someone driving like this show was. This was like sitting there with the gang and listening to a friend telling a story. Well done.
Wow, that's so great to hear, thanks so much for both watching and commenting!
Yeah no kidding. In the US, the only thing people do on late night shows is make fun of people they disagree with. Super annoying
I whole heartedly agree
@@SkavlanTV Love watching your interviews.
Completely agree. Canadian here, this is a refreshing interview, both this and the Jordan B. Peterson one I watched. You let them speak and answer fully before continuing. Absolutely wonderful.
Many people in Norway and Sweden don't like the host because instead of being this Letterman-esque TV personality with his own talk show and he'll let you know it, he's more of a guy making his guests do the talking while taking a backseat position.
Personally i think this is the best format out of any talk show on TV and I'm just happy I understand what's being said no matter what language the episode is in.
I agree. The best talks on Skavlan are the ones where one guest starts asking their own questions to another guests. All of a sudden there's absolutely no script and things get so sincere and interesting.
Graham Norton style
I’m from Sweden and I’d say that everyone I know who has seen/watches Skavlan likes the host because he lets the guests talk and asks relevant and interesting questions. Personally, I like him.
I like that Skavlan lets his guests talk, and thats probably his best feature. He does however have a lot of other habits that a lot of people aren't fond of. Skavlan (the show) is better the less Skavlan (the guy) talks and involves himself. If you watch some of the more serious interviews, where people talk about serious, traumatic experiences, Skavlan has a tendency to hard transition to a super joyful happy topic in this very cold and unfeeling manner right as they've finished telling the story. He seems so cold and uncaring sometimes, and that's really offputting.
So I like that Skavlan let's his guests talk the way he does, but that doesn't mean that I have to like Skavlan as a host in his entirety.
It doesn't make sense to not prefer this type of interviews. Isn't the whole point of an interview to learn more new/funny things about a person, and not fake a laugh about the same thing for the 1000th time??
Also the guests always seem more comfortable here and more open.
he had to sit there and hold his ankle for two hours. what a legend.
or you could say.... a leg end
He held Dave's leg for 15 minutes until the cast was put on the leg.
I still can’t believe Taylor’s gone. RIP.
This is a musician who truly cares about his fans. True class.
I was at their concert in Gothenburg two weeks ago where Dave Grohl dedicated the song “my hero” to the doctor Johan
Simon Nilzzon I just saw them last month in Paris,was great. Greetings from British Columbia
I love Dave his reaction when the docter comes in! He loves his audience and wanted to keep playing. And this man saved his leg during that show! Priceless!
I have to say, I was never into grunge and while I do enjoy some of the Foo Fighters' stuff, I wouldn't call myself a genuine fan. That said, David Ghrol is a effin national treasure! I knew that he broke his leg and finished the show but until now, I've always thought he did another twenty or thirty minutes. And while that's still very impressive, it blew my mind to find out that he actually played for more than two hours!!! The last time I got a papercut, I sat in a darkened room for two weeks, watching Netflix on low volume. The joy on his face when he found out the doctor was there and the way that he listened to him, with rapt attention. He seems like a genuinely cool guy.
I know what you mean, I wouldn't really say I'm a fan of Foo Fighters or Nirvana (though love his work in Probot and with Tenacious D). But the fact remains, he's a fantastic musician in general. I would say though, going on to perform a 2.5 hour set while your leg might fall off is probably not exactly wise lol.
I'd heard the story before but didn't realise it was right at the start. Excellent professionalism from DG to want to continue. Imagine that was Axl Rose? They'd still be waiting for the rescheduled show, no refunds!
You know you’re winning in life when Dave Grohl is excited to see you
He totally gets the credit he deserved!! Beautiful story!!
What a legend. He still gets that people paid hard earned money to see him & kept it going when everyone else would have understood if hadn't. I'm a huge fan now.
I love Dave's reaction when the good doctor is introduced
Two things:
1) Dave Grohl is a music GOD!!
2) That Swedish doctor deserves to become a bit of a celebrity now. I hope it happens!
I just loved the joy on Dave's face when the host told him the doctor was there. The man helped Dave and the rest of the band finish what Grohl has called one of his best shows ever -- and you could see the appreciation for the doctor that helped him get back on stage.
This interview is amazing! You are actually interested in someone's personality. No stupid games. More time with the guests. Genuine curiosity and a heartwarming surprise at the end. Please keep doing this. It is beautiful to watch!
The fact that the hosts and the doctor speak great English and everyone in the audience understands is awesome. I mean, this is the Swedish national public TV. Scandinavian countries and their citizens´ level of English are just amazing...Probably very difficult to see this in other countries...In Spain this would be unthinkable...
It’s a really cool thing how English became the international language that everyone has to learn to communicate with other people. I’ve seen the craziest examples....like a Croatian and a Nigerian and a Kazakh all speaking English together because none of them speak any of the other’s active tongues. So weird, interesting, fascinating, and cool all at once. I feel quite lucky to have been born in an Anglophone country, because it naturally makes life a bit easier when I travel.
They are a remarkable people. I deeply respect them.
This is really sweet bc us swedes are kinda embarrassed at this level of english, we think the accent is horrible, haha, we want to sound american or british so we cringe when we see this. But nice to hear other countries are not as harsh towards us
That 'as a patient, he was very impatient' wordplay was excellent.
That stadium has a capacity of 75.000 people, so continuing the concert meant they saved 75.000 x 2.5 hours = 21 years worth of everyone's free time.
???

@@roddo1955 why are you guys confused? Xd
What’s 3.2million x 14mins because that’s this video
@@whyguy3651 85.2 years ish
why isn' skavlan on british TV? It's the best talk show around. No stupidity - just good, quality chat.
Its in swedish/norwegian usually they just switch to english for international guests. Most of the english speaking world dont like reading subtitles. In general alot of the guests are a mix of international and local scandinavians so half of the guests are not really interesting for british audience.
He probably wouldn't want to, british media is know to tear people to shreds for the smallest thing, real or imagined.
The brits have Graham Norton. And I find that, while the format being different of course, being the best talk show around. Skavlan is good, Norton is the best.
@@Totto87 Agreed, although this guy usually has more interesting and varied guests
I love LOVE how excited Dave got when he found out the doctor was there in the audience. Just a genuinely good dude.
Dave Grohl, in my opinion is one of the best examples of humanity.
that moment of dave seeing the guy who held his leg for 2.5 hours and that feeling of seeing him again. watching that unfold is truly amazing
He held Dave's leg for 15 minutes until the cast was put on the leg; they played for 2.5 hours.
"There was no pain."
The adrenaline from the shock probably hadn't worn off.
@Dave E Adrenaline is a hell of a drug.
I smiled during that whole interview. What a great show.
Hey🌹, how you doing today ?
I just love how Dave was so excited to see the doctor again
Always love how humble Dave is. He not just play for 2 and a half hours after braking his leg. He receive that doctor as if it was a good old friend. He really loves and appreciate every person he encounters and worked with
I like to scroll through the comments on videos of Dave Grohl searching for 1 negative comment. It's a game I play and happily lose every time. EVERYONE loves him
I thought I was the only one! 😁
Just see him jumping like a kid with his arms to the sky when he sees the doctor come on stage. This man really loves and cares about other people. There's no way he can let out so much love without some of it backfiring at him.
Watched the whole thing just to see the look on Daves face when he's told the doctor has in the house. Wasn't disappointed.
In every interview I see, Dave Grohl is such a great story teller. Gees if there was ever someone you would invite to a dinner party or just for drinks at a pub. Perhaps the latter. He is such a genuine good bloke.
Listen to his book, The Storyteller, on audible. It's thr only way to really read it.
Me: Break a leg.
Dave: *falls of the stage*
Me: o____O
i thought you'd be more like -__-
That´s what my mother told me. My father is Japanese.
MrJapanApan "Dave, it was figurative dude"
MrJapanApan what? Umm...k?
Yep. Then plays on a thrown rather than cancelling all shows.
Dave should make his own podcast with all the stories so they'll never get lost. He's such a good story teller.
Skavlan knows when not to interrupt. That is a big asset.
Dave is an extremely lucky guy as he wasn't part of just one but two legendary bands who are now a big part of rock history. Who else has that kinda credentials on their resume?
Paul McCartney.
Finishing a show after breaking your leg is perhaps the most metal thing ever. Dave, you rock.
Tonight on air: The Foo Fighters and their Foot Fighter!
Good one 😂😂💀
@@simply-living8523 Thank you. ^^
Best joke ever
Bieber doesn't show up because he's playing a videogame. Dave breaks his leg and gets back on stage and they keep playing! DAVE IS AWESOME!!
I would actually watch late night tv here in the states if we had someone driving like this show was. This was like sitting there with the gang and listening to a friend telling a story. Well done.
I came for the doctor reunion but stayed for the Paul McCartney drummer story
What a lovely moment, when Dave looks as him with such affection.
The Doc must have gotten VIP passes to every Foo Fighters concert after this.
Love this interiew. Dave and Taylor are so cool.
I was there standing almost by the stage when this happend. When it did happen, all of us was scared that he was dead or something, i thought it was some kind of joke, but it turned out to be one of the most epic concerts, Dave is a real rockstar
I dont think the video does justice to how far he fell people die from much less falls
As a mountainbiker, the worst crashes are those where you can't tell it's going wrong. When practicing jumps, one of the most important parts is knowing early when you're not going to succeed because hitting the ground prepared to roll or slide is safer than hitting the ground with your bike but without control and having the bike slam you in the torso.
When Dave tripped, he knew he couldn't regain control and avoid the edge, so took as much control of the fall as possible by jumping. Without the jump, he would have been going to hospital immediately.
Yeah…Grohl and Hawkins are more than genuine dudes. They’re just really beautiful souls.
Of course Dave has Paul’s number! They both are living legends, their bands have changed music history. I love how Dave always makes a point to say we are normal people we have normal life’s
Love the way Dave yells, "HEYYYY!" whenever he's surprised to see someone he evidently hasn't seen in awhile.
I love Dave so much, he is REAL. The look on his face at 11:00 is one of genuine surprise at hearing who is there. A truly class act, he even takes getting upstaged by his fans with humor and genuine affection.
My bucket list dream is to get to a FF concert, and sing "My Hero" with Dave in tribute to my late father. I bet if I can indeed get there and get near the stage, Dave would make it happen. My health is declining though, so hopefully I can do it soon.
I hope you’re doing well and that you get the chance to make this happen!
This is my favorite interview, and I still can’t watch it without feeling hollow. BTW, I’m a 71 yr old woman who loves the FF and always thought there would be time to see them live. Don’t do what I did, go do what you want to do.
one time i was at a foo fighters concert in stockholm. the doctor was in the audience and dave yelled his name and gave him his guitar. one of the coolest things i’ve seen
I got to about 25 concerts and festivals each year,nobody pulls off a long 3 1/2 hour show like the foo fighters much respect for the foos:)
Iron Maiden do though.
Bruce
Only Dave would be back on stage 15 minutes after breaking a leg..that's the class this man has
Two of the nicest guys you could ever hope to meet, so genuine. RIP Taylor 😞
10:59 the pure look of joy on his face
You break your ankle and you decide to play for 2.5 hours more... that's why I love Dave
Elchinodiabolero my man!
No joke, it's hard to not love Dave.
Imagine that story. "I met Dave Grohl once. Yeah man, he let me hold his leg for a good two hours."
The show must go on! Very gracious of Dave to continue his set. Foo Fighters rock!
I can’t imagine the pain Dave Grohl is going through….I’m praying 🙏 for him, Taylor’s wife, children and family and the Foo Fighters family…❤️🙏
I love that when the doctor comes out Dave just screams and he gives him a hughe hug
Dave grohl Is an absolute legend playing for two and a half hours with a broken leg says a lot about the guy. Fair play dude
I’m reading Dave’s autobiography right now and the clips of the incident and his retellings of it are EXACTLY the way he recounts it in his book, down to the speech he gives his audience when he falls to the black leather jacket his wife was wearing. The fact that he finished the show on pure adrenaline after snapping his leg is incredible. SO. MUCH. RESPECT.
Is the book called The Storyteller or is it another book please?
@@donnadarkflame1508 yes, it’s The Storyteller.
The Storyteller. Amazing autobiography.
Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase "break a leg" that's said in theater for good luck in a performance
I could listen to Dave's stories for hours. What a guy! ♡
David is the epitome of a cool, humble rock star. I have so much respect and admiration for him.
I love Dave’s reaction when he hears that doctor is there
Aww, that reaction from Dave. What an absolute legend.
Dave Grohl is definitely someone I'd like to meet. He seems like such a chill guy.
love the layout of the room, all chat shows should be like this, it looks so inviting everyone seems so relaxed
The thing about Dave is he isn’t arrogant and shows his true feelings his face. He genuinely loves people, I’d love to meet him.
Dave Grohl leveled up into Rockstar God Mode..... broke his leg and he kept playing what a badass
cool real interview
STOP BEING EVERYWHERE IT FREAKS ME OUT
HOLY SHIT HOW TO MAKE SUSHI I LOVE YOU SO MUCH BRO CAN I GET YOUR AUTOGRAPH
I've no idea who you are, but apparently you're famous. Anyways, how DO you make Sushi?
I LOVE HOW TO MAKE SUSHI
Watching Dave's reaction to seeing the doctor in the studio reminds me of the time that kid with cerebral palsy surprised Mr. Rogers during some award presentation and how excited Mr. Rogers was, not about the award, but to see an old friend. Dave Grohl is rock and roll Mr. Rogers. He clearly just loves everybody.
Edit: Jesus Christ, I posted this not too long before Taylor Hawkins' death. He was also one of the genuinely good guys of hard rock. I'm so upset that he's gone and I cannot believe a man so genuine and good as Dave Grohl is being forced to deal with ANOTHER loss of this magnitude. My heart is with the Hawkins family and with Taylor's band mates.
I've always admired Dave Grohl--his music, his musicianship, and his great personality. If I'm in a bad mood or depressed, I'll watch a Dave Grohl interview.
Me too and funnywise a few weeks ago my psychiatrist asked me: "What is Dave Grohl up to these days?"
How did he know? 😅❤😂
It made me smile when the interviewer said to the doctor something along the lines of, 'You are a real professional doctor yet you are also a Foo Fighters fan' as if the two things are incompatible.
Why shouldn't a doctor like the music of Foo Fighters? I wonder what sort of music he thinks a doctor should be listening to?
Well, I think he's more or less making the point that because the doctor is a Foo Fighters fan, he was a little biased in his professional medical opinion to keep him at the concert instead of insisting that he go to the hospital immediately because he wanted to see the concert go on. I don't think he was implying that you can't be a both a doctor and a Foo Fighters fan, although literally what he spoke might sound that way. Maybe a slight language barrier or something regarding the specifics of english.
