Must Watch Video: Jimmy Fallon Reveals Why He Was In The ICU For 10 Days After Finger Injury!

Jimmy Fallon, the host of The Tonight Show, returned Monday night after being forced to take a two-week break from the show. The break happened after Fallon tripped over an ugly rug inside his kitchen. He tried to break his fall, but his wedding ring got caught on the counter and almost ripped his finger off.

At first, he thought it was just a broken finger, but the doctors at the hospital explained it was more serious than that…

It’s a thing called ring avulsion. A-V-U-L-S-I-O-N. If you Google it, it’s graphic images. Don’t Google it. But ring avulsion, it’s a real thing…My ring got caught on a countertop when I was going down and stuck there and pulled my finger out.

And just a warning, he wasn’t kidding about those graphic images. I know you are going to search for it on Google, but please don’t do it while you are eating. Don’t make the same mistake I did.

Anyway, check out the full video below. It’s a pretty interesting story. It also makes me even more terrified of rings. When I was a kid, my step-dad developed this nasty infection from his wedding ring. His skin was falling off and sh-t. Gross. I think I’ll just get a ring tattoo.
