Guy Fieri suffered a serious injury when he was in the middle of filming his new show, Flavor Town Food Fight. According to the reports, he slipped down a set of stairs which caused an extreme tear in the middle of his right quadriceps muscle. His surgeon informed him that the injury is so uncommon that he hasn’t seen one in 20 years. While explaining his unfortunate fall, he told Fox News Digital:“I slipped down a set of steps and one foot went forward and the other foot got caught on the threshold. So, you know, it extended me out. I looked like I was probably doing the splits, but when my right leg compressed into itself, the giveaway point, and the doctor said he's never seen — you know, in 20 years — he hasn't seen a tear in the biggest, thickest part of your quad in half. Yeah, it sucked.”2025 Stagecoach Festival - Day 3 - Source: GettyContinue reading for more details.Guy Fieri suffers serious and rare injury amid filming new showGuy Fieri sent a shockwave among his fans when he suffered a serious injury.
