Taylor Swift's Dancer Falls on Stage and Recovers Like a 'True Professional'
Taylor Swift fans are once again in awe of the singer's talented group of Eras Tour backup dancers.
During the "Fortnight" singer's latest concert in London on Friday night, her backup dancer, Kam Saunders, took a spill on stage but quickly recovered like a "true professional." The fall happened when "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart" played during a section of the show dedicated to Swift's newest album, The Tortured Poets Department.
In footage of the incident now circulating on X (formerly Twitter), Saunders took a spill behind Swift in the middle of the number—but fortunately, he was immediately able to get up and continue dancing. He even made it to his next mark on time.

"such a professional tho he immediately got up and acted like nothing happened," one user on X pointed out after seeing the clip.
"He recovered so fast!" someone else gushed,
More followers made a point to admire Saunders for his reaction to the incident, as he didn't even appear to miss a beat.
Others used the situation as an opportunity for Swfities to poke some fun at Saunders—using puns about Swift's music, of course.
"CAUSE HE CAN DO IT WITH SOME BROKEN LEGS," one fan quipped, referencing the title of the bouncy song Swift was singing when he fell.
Another user on X joked that Saunders "took breaking down I hit the floor a little too seriously," referencing other lyrics from the track.
"he was feeling the song a little too real," someone else wrote.
