Jimmy Fallon suffered another injury over the weekend, this time to his right hand.
The “Tonight Show” host, who traveled to Boston on Saturday to receive Harvard University’s Lampoon award, took a tumble and mildly injured his right hand, just four months after he almost lost a finger on his left hand.
Fallon was holding a bottle of Jaegermeister when he fell and cut himself, according to People, and made a brief trip to Massachusetts General Hospital after.
Not to worry, though: the comedian posted a photo of his bandaged hand on his Instagram page Sunday morning, along with the caption, “nothing that a few band aids couldn’t fix.”
One attendee seemed to capture the incident on video, showing Fallon taking a hard fall in the middle of a crowd.
Saturday’s injury is notably less severe than the one Fallon suffered in June, which forced NBC to scrap a taping of “The Tonight Show.” Fallon said he injured his hand then when he fell and his ring got caught on the edge of a table. His left hand remains bandaged.
And in August, the “Tonight Show” host chipped his tooth after trying to open a bottle of medication for his finger.
Fallon, 41, was honored with the Elmer Award for Excellence in Humor in a celebration that ended with a parade through Harvard Square. He reportedly returned to the celebration later that night.
Ratings must be in the dumper.
I like this guy a lot, but I’m beginning to wonder … Awful lot of accidents.
I cannot believe the nasty comments about Jimmy, political, and personal. I enjoy his show because he doesn’t hesitate to have anyone on the show, regardless of politics. I wish him all the best. Evidently a lot of other people do to, but most won’t go online and talk about it, or read the insults. Oh, and before someone tells me all about the rights to free speech, I already know, because I also have the same rights.
I fell down in bug spray as a glass from the table fell and broke in the spray. While trying to get up I did not realize the glass had broken in so many pieces that cut into my hand. I did not have insurance and had to do a little microsurgery myself. It is almost impossible to get all of the glass out of your hand, and it was so painful for a couple of years I couldn’t believe it. Now, if I hold my hand up to the light I can sometimes see some glass. I killed a few nerves in my hand and cannot take the change from a cashier in a supermarket. In other words, the nerves are DEAD. Jimmy is a mess and better figure out his problem/s as it is not going to get better.
I’ve got to hand it to him… I don’t watch TV. But, if you can get press for a band aid…well. Bring on the TV. not
To win Harvard University’s Lampoon award one must first be liberal and then well … that’s it.
Jaegermeister? More like Klutzmeister…
Show me a liberal shill, I’ll show you someone filled with misery and fighting a problem.
Someone give that child a helmet.
Don’t sweat it Jimmy – most of us have “fallen with a bottle of Jaegermeister”. That green mind-assassin is nothing but falling-on-your-ass in a bottle.
Fallon has got to stop sticking his ailing finger up his…
Too bad it wasn’t a career ender, hate the untalented sycophant.
Jimmy is adorable!! Hope he’s feeling better poor thing
Jaegermeister will do that to you. Why anyone would drink that swill, though, when there’s plenty of tasty booze out there, is beyond me. As for Fallon and his “Tonight Show,” I’m sure Johnny Carson is spinning in his grave at seeing his legacy destroyed in a sea of rap, hip-hop, and blackness. Pity.
I love him. Hope he’s ok
I wish him well. He may want to get a full medical work up and see if something is throwing off his balance or mental focus…Or even being sleep deprived or stressed can cause bizarre injuries.
You are one of the best, Jimmy.
Consider getting checked for vertigo.
I think it is much more than vertigo but only a doctor can advise.
I hope he finds out the problem as he is running out of hands.
For something that only required a couple of Band-Aids, that’s a hell of a bandage on virtually the entire right hand. In the photo, you can see the old bandage still on the ring finger of the left hand.
Tears of a Clown going on inside this guy—dude, get help and let it go. Sad.
Chief Wiggum: “High as a kite, everybody. Goofballs!”
I don’t know…
Convenient for testing his BAC at the ER.
“Jaeger”…followers of standup will get that. Dayum Jimmy! Who knows what really went down (besides you) that first time…. get some help or get some slowdown!
Jimmy … always Fallon down.
Shots!! Shots!!…Just sayin’…
He seems to be ‘unhanding’ himself. Is it that tough in the spotlight?
Damn Dude, Glad you OK!!!! Nice to see you hanging out with friends!
Hey Jimmy, whoever’s standing on your life, get ’em out of your life or handle them with communication. Not doing so, is causing you to have all these accidents. They occur in the presence of suppression, which is someone holding you down, in some way. Take it to heart, Bro. Before they do you in.
So which is it…his left or his right? You need your proofing experts to pay better attention to the content…”Jimmy Fallon suffered another injury over the weekend, this time to his left hand.

I think the picture shown is shown backwards. If you look at the picture of just his newly injured hand, it is his right hand.
What difference, at this point, does it make?
Who cares which hand he hurt himself on today?
Hey DERP – Judge not lest ye be judged. Whatever he does on his own time is his business, not yours. Bugger off.
