Oh my god, did you guys here about this on the news? This took place while taping the David Letterman Show.
(2/6/04 - New York) — A snowboarder performing a stunt for David Letterman's talk show veered off a ramp outside the show's theater and fell 25 feet to the ground. Letterman show executive producer Rob Burnett said snowboarding champion Tara Dakides of California, is listed in stable condition at a local hospital.
Witnesses said Dakides, nicknamed the Terrorizer, made two successful jumps on the U.S.haped ramp, set up on 53rd Street in Manhattan outside the Ed Sullivan Theater, and then fell off the ramp on her third attempt. Dakides, a snowboard competitor since 1993, has finished first in several X Games events, dominating slopestyle, according to the EXPN.com site.
The producer said he hoped that Dakides "makes a full and complete recovery and that she'll be back on the ‘Late Show' soon." Because of the accident, the "Late Show" stopped taping and aired a repeat last night.
