A glitching robot dancer suddenly lost its balance and stumbled into a pop superstar during a packed concert.
The metal mover malfunctioned at a show by American singer-actor Wang Leehom.
Footage showed the bot bopper raising its arms next to Wang and another humanoid dancer at the end of a song.
The little robot apparently glitched and stumbled towards the unsuspecting singer, bumping into his legs.
As the crowd erupted in laughter, the 50-year-old smiled and helped the bot back into position, stopping to ask it: “Are you okay?”
He reminded his metallic dancer: “We have one more song to do.”
Humanoid robots have been wowing fans with slick dance routines during the fiery track ‘Fire Power Full On’.
The mishap took place during Wang’s The Best Place II tour at the Dong’an Lake Sports Park Main Stadium in Chengdu, China, on 5 July.
Ironically, Wang suffered another stage blunder at the same venue the night before.
In front of 40,000 fans, the singer tripped and whacked his head on the stage, as reported by Need To Know.
Wang, who was born in New York to a Taiwanese American family, was taken to hospital where he needed 27 stitches to his left ear and 12 to his face.
The pop star tripped over a safety cable while stepping off a descending platform.
He fell forwards and hit his head on the steps of a platform that spanned into the crowd.
The left side of his face took the full impact, shattering the cartilage in the outer ear.
With blood splattered across his left face and ear, the singer immediately stood up and finished the song.
Wang joked on stage that he looked a bit like Van Gogh or an MMA fighter.
After the concert, he went straight to hospital for further treatment.
He later said: “When you’re performing live in front of 40,000 fans, you don’t feel the pain.
“The blood looked frightening, but there were no more serious injuries.”
He added: “I feel incredibly lucky and blessed that it wasn’t any worse.”
