Slipknot’s Sid Wilson hospitalized for burns after bonfire explosion



Sid Wilson sustained burn injuries after a bonfire accident.

The Slipknot musician, 47, shared an Instagram video from the hospital on Friday informing his fans that he was burnt from an “explosion” at his farm.

“Hey everybody, I had an explosion in my face,” Wilson said while lying in a hospital bed with a oxygen tube on, as doctors treated his injuries.

“I’m okay. I’m gonna be okay,” he continued. “But I did have some serious burns to my face and my arms.”

Wilson went on, “You can see the phone shaking. That’s cause I am holding it and I am shaking. They’re doing some extra X-rays to make sure I didn’t inhale any flames.”

“You see I’m singed over there,” he added, pointing to his cheek. “My eyebrows are singed. My mouth is blistered. My arm is pretty bad — both my arms.”

In his next video shared hours later, Wilson gave an update on his health from inside an ambulance that was taking him to another hospital.

“You can see my lips got hit pretty bad,” he said. “Worst part’s my arms. They’re gonna shave my head, so say goodbye to the long hair. It’s going bye-bye.“

The famous DJ called himself a “trooper” and reassured fans that he’s “okay.” He also explained that he sustained the burns from a bonfire on his farm that still had some “leftover” flames.

Wilson’s girlfriend Kelly Osbourne, with whom he shares 1-year-old son Sidney, shared videos on her Instagram Stories about the incident.

“This is why you don’t f–k with burn piles,” Osbourne, 39, said in a clip from Friday. “He literally set himself on fire and exploded everything.”

The next day, the British reality star shared another video where she thanked fans for their support.

“I just want to take a second to say thank you to everyone who’s been sending well wishes to Sid,” she said. “He’s doing so much better. In fact, we are on the way to go pick him up from the hospital right now.”

Once Wilson was home, the daughter of Ozzy Osbourne and Sharon Osbourne shared a video of her using a small towel to wipe the burns on her boyfriend’s face.

“Okay, this is probably the worst part of having a burn,” Osbourne said, before apologizing to Wilson “if this hurts.”

Osbourne later jokingly filmed Wilson asleep on the couch in videos played to the songs “Firestarter” by The Prodigy, “Great Balls of Fire” by Jerry Lee Lewis, “We Didn’t Start the Fire” by Billy Joel and “Set Fire to the Rain” by Adele.
