Michael Jackson 1984 Pepsi Commerical Accident Video

July 15, 2009



UsMagazine has released never before seen video from the $1.5 million Pepsi Commercial Michael Jackson filmed in front of 3,000 fans at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles back in 1984.

Extreme pyrotechnics were used and during the sixth take, the fireworks went off too early, igniting Jackson’s head in flames.  You can see in the video at first, Jackson is unaware he’s on fire, and continues dancing.

Jackson, 25 at the time, ended up with second and third-degree burns on his scalp and body and was later prescribed several medications (to help him tolerate multiple surgeries on the scorched spot on his head), which they claim are what kicked off his addiction to painkillers and obsession with plastic surgery.

And sources claim he was never the same after the accident.
