A Nigerian TV personality who is considered one of the most eccentric of his type has hurt himself on the set of a movie shoot.

Nigerian entertainer and TV personality Denrele Edun had a bad day recently when he fell and injured himself during a movie shoot.
The eccentric Denrele shared these graphic images of himself bleeding all the floor after the accident on his social media. He called it 'suffering for the craft'.
He said: They say that true artists suffer for their craft, but perhaps no artist has suffered like myself on this hustle of ours!
The moment I got the script titled #PepperSoup from @graceobobaedwinokon with me as the lead character, I just wanted to jump onboard! And yes, I jumped on in my gangsta mode! Whilst shooting the first scene, I was supposed to pass out but in a bid to make it convincing, I fell on my face and accidentally split my eye brow area open! I bled like crazy!!! REAL BLOOD!!!
The producer wanted to strike set and cancel shoot but I refused! Say what? First rule: the show must go on! And I was kinda lucky we were shooting in a hospital so there were nurses to dress the wound.
Had to add some extra extra extensions to my hair to hide the plaster...And I got back on set like nothing happened!
Im in a lot of pain but hey...THE SHOW MUST GO ON!
Here's your favorite StageFaller with another beautiful FALL! #DustsShoulders
