Mike O’Hearn is one of the top fitness figures in the industry having graced countless magazine covers, and even assuming the role of a “Gladiator” twice. But O’Hearn proved that even the coolest and toughest looking dudes can suffer extreme embarrassment (even if they do pull it off a little better) which was the case after he tumbled off the stage during a guest posing appearance at the NPC Northwest Championship in Washington state over the weekend.
But the good news is that he’s ok. In fact, he got right back up and kept doing his thing!
Mike O’Hearn posted his awful mishap on Instagram and you can watch it below…

Mike gives his statement to Generationiron about falling off the stage:
“I DID FALL OFF THE STAGE, I DIDN’T SEE THE EDGE,” SAID O’HEARN. “I DID INSTANTLY GET UP AND CONTINUE MY PERFORMANCE. QUITE EMBARRASSING, BUT LIFE IS GREAT THAT IT WILL KNOCK YOU DOWN [AND] ALWAYS KEEP YOU HUMBLE.
“I CAN APPRECIATE THE LITTLE THINGS. THE SHOW MUST GO ON. SOME BUMPS AND BRUISES, BUT I WILL BE FINE.”
Mike O’Hearn didn’t seem to make a big thing about his mishap and likely laughed it off after the fact, even jokingly adding on his post “Please don’t worry. I Didn’t break the floor. #Idomyownstunts”.
We’re just glad the big guy is ok…
