Two Nights ago in Switzerland after a gig Mark fell from the roof of the bands tour bus after a drunken fight with an imaginary Jedi cracking his head open on the ground. The band rushed to find him on the ground in a pool of blood thinking the worst. Luckily (thank his lucky stars) he escaped with 40 stitches and now looks like Mr Bump from Mr Men!(he's the one who added that comment!). Despite the accident that could of ended tragically he went ahead with lastnights gig. He added "am counting my blessings! how it wasn't more serious i haven't a clue. everyone else thought i was dead lying in a pool of blood. so in true WWF style 'don't try this at home kids' " He should be as right as rain soon though!
