    He knew she was (in) trouble.

    Taylor Swift dealt with a mechanical mishap that was solved by one of her backup dancers during her second concert in Dublin, Ireland, on her Eras Tour .

    At Saturday night’s show, the 34-year-old pop star was performing “The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived” from her new album, “The Tortured Poets Department,” when she got stuck on a raised platform.

    The part of the platform that Swift was standing on didn’t retract as it was supposed to, so she was stuck there in the middle of the stage.

    Luckily, her backup dancer Jan Ravnik came to her rescue.

    Ravnik rushed towards Swift and carried her off the platform.

    Swift performed in Dublin for three nights over the weekend.

    At the third show, she performed “Clara Bow” as a surprise song and dedicated it to Stevie Nicks who was in the audience. Nicks, 76, is name-checked in the song .

    “She’s a hero of mine and also someone that I can tell her any secret and she’d never tell anybody,” Swift said to the crowd before performing the song. “She’s really helped me through so much over the years. I’m talking about Stevie Nicks.”

    On June 23, Swift brought Kelce out before she performed “ I Can Do It With a Broken Heart ” at Wembley Stadium.
