Rod Wave Wows Fans With Daredevil Stunt That Ends With Scary Fall
Rod Wave is a man of many talents and he can now add stuntman to his résumé after his latest stage dive went viral.
In a video captured at the Pinnacle Bank Arena in Nebraska on Thursday (October 19), the Florida native (real name Rodarius Marcell Green) climbed to a high ledge while using a step-stool, before tossing his mic away.

He then appeared to swing on the railing, then climb on top of it while holding a bar to the side of him. From there, he turned his back to the crowd, outstretched his arms, and took a backwards fall into a pile of smoke as he appeared to disappear.

The soul-trap originator is known for falling through the stage at various times — although the last time it happened, it was entirely unplanned.
Back in 2020, Rod Wave was set to perform at Morris Brown College for a concert on Halloween — but the stage had other plans.

Flocked by a massive crew behind him, the crooner entered the auditorium of the Historically Black College and University to a thunderous ovation from fans in attendance. Seconds later, the stage buckled and collapsed, prompting Rod to stumble as others behind him fell in the newly created crater.
Rod was a good sport about the fall, sharing video to his Instagram account and writing: “PIMP DOWN! I REPEAT PIMP DOWN!”
No injuries have been reported after the stage collapse, but many touted the age of Morris Brown and a lack of funding to explain for the stage implosion.
