        I think that’s a given, the concern is that at his age, a fall from height might reduce him to dust. Only half joking.

    Hope he is okay, falling down is devastating enough for the elderly without it being off a stage.

    The 85-year-old actor will “make a speedy and full recovery” and is in “good spirits,” his spokesperson said.

    Something something, “break a leg”, something something.

    Seriously though, I hope he’s ok.
