Girl Slammed to the Ground by Promotion Prop
The old saying “don’t let the door hit you on the way out” became a reality—and almost a disaster—during an on-court promotion for a local hotel at a Miami Heat game Friday.
A prop designed to look like a Kimpton Epic Miami hotel room door was wheeled onto the court after the first quarter. Fans were selected to try room keys to unlock the door and win prizes. As one girl inserted her key, the door unlocked and she stepped through to cheers from the crowd. The prop went off balance and came crashing down slamming her in the head and knocking her to the floor. Her glasses were knocked off and she got up quickly but looked stunned. Makes one wonder if anyone bothered to properly test the prop.
The video is posted on Instagram and has 1.3 million views and 3,600 comments. Despite the bump on her head—hopefully that’s all it is—at least she did walk away with a free hotel night. Considering the amount of media and social coverage the accident got, let’s hope she gets VIP treatment. Take a look at the video.
