Slipknot DJ Hospitalized Following Explosion

Slipknot DJ Sid Wilson has revealed he’s been hospitalized due to an explosion. Wilson apparently suffered severe burns on his arms and face, although the circumstances surrounding the incident are still unknown.

“Hey everybody. I had an explosion in my face,” Wilson said via Instagram while nurses tended to him. “I’m OK. I’m gonna be OK. But I did have some serious burns to my face and my arms. You can see the phone shaking because I’m holding it, and I am shaking. They’re doing X-rays of my chest right now to make sure I didn’t inhale the flame.”

He continued: “I’m singed everywhere. My eyebrows are singed. My mouth is blistered. My arm is pretty bad. Both my arms. I’m gonna be alright. And I don’t care what it takes. I will see you on tour.”

The video of a clearly rattled Wilson can be seen below. Slipknot is scheduled to perform Sept. 1 at the Roklahoma festival before several dates in the western United States later that month.

Wilson is also in a relationship with Ozzy Osbourne’s daughter, Kelly, and the couple has a son together.
