Video Showing Michael Jackson’s Freak Accident

This is a never-before-seen footage of Michael Jackson which shows how he suffered second- to third-degree burns in the face and scalp caused by a pyrotechnic accident during the shooting of Pepsi TV commercial in 1984.

During the shooting, the fireworks exploded prematurely, burning MJ’s hair. In the first few seconds, he continued to dance, completely unaware that his hair was on fire.

However, some people came rushing toward MJ after seeing that his head was burning.

According to reports, MJ’s burn injuries required several surgeries and medication to allow him to cope with pain. Meanwhile, rumors said that heavy medication from this accident started his alleged addition to painkiller drugs which led to his recent death.
