The rocker, who was performing in Gothenburg, Sweden, missed a jump on a ramp and fell, which lead him to continue to play while a medic attended to his freshly broken leg. Grohl then left the stage to get his leg looked over, he soon returned with a fresh cast and continued to play.
The Foo Fighters posted an X-ray shot of the fracture, while other media outlets picked up the story.
