It was a wicked and wild wind, blew down the doors to let him in.

Or maybe it was just distraction by a record-breaking crowd that led Chris Martin to take a tumble through a trap door at Coldplay’s Sunday concert in Melbourne.

In footage captured by concertgoers and posted on social media, the 47-year-old musician points to several fan posters and flags before stepping backward into an open trap door. From below the Marvel Stadium stage, a crew member extends his arms to cushion Martin’s fall.

“That’s, uh, not planned,” the “Viva la Vida” singer remarked as he readjusted his mic pack and climbed back onto the stage. “That was nearly a YouTube moment.”

Aside from a case of “the jitters,” Martin reassured fans he wasn’t hurt. Peering through the stage door, Martin thanked the crew members who came to his rescue, joking, “You get a bonus.”

A representative for Martin did not reply immediately Tuesday to The Times’ request for comment.

The mishap comes less than a month after pop star Olivia Rodrigo fell through the stage while performing in Melbourne, albeit at a different arena.

During her final Guts tour stop at the Rod Laver Arena, Rodrigo was running across the stage, pointing to cheering fans, when she dropped through a trap door. “I’m OK,” she said as she bounced right back up, “Where was I?”

The “Vampire” singer later poked fun at herself, posting a dramatic edit of the tumble on TikTok.

After the Guts tour concluded in late October, Rodrigo recounted the incident to Jimmy Fallon in an appearance on his late-night show.

“It was really scary,” Rodrigo said, confirming that she was unharmed. “I mean, the show must go on. That’s showbiz, baby.”

Meanwhile, Coldplay’s Music of the Spheres World Tour — which began in March 2022 and concludes with a 10-day run at London’s Wembley Stadium in September 2025 — continues Wednesday in Sydney.
