Train Wrecks
Model Eats Runway ... Twice

Model Falls on Catwalk: Click to watchIf you thought Carrie Bradshaw had it bad as "fashion roadkill" on "Sex and the City," you ain't seen nothin' yet.

One poor model had not one, but two incredibly embarrassing falls at yesterday's Vivienne Westwood show during Paris Fashion Week.

The model, decked out in a pink skirt, impractical orange and yellow heels and a watering can full of water, was struggling right from her very first step onto the runway. As soon as she appears in front of the packed audience, the model wiggles, wobbles and nearly crashes face first into the stage. Thankfully, she recovers and gracefully continues her strut, but it's only a taste of what lies ahead.

After doing her little turn on the catwalk, the unsteady model suddenly crashes to the floor, water splashing out of her can as she went down. But, like a true pro, the model gets up and pushes on. Unfortunately, she may have pushed on a little too hard. She immediately begins teetering on her heels, waves her arms in desperation, and finally falls forward again. Hard.

Hey, nobody said being really, really, ridiculously good looking was easy.

107. This poor girl whether it was the water that was on the floor or the ugly shoes it doesn't matter but yes the child is way to anorexic to be up there on the runway....Why put woman on display that are out of reality....Put real woman on there who have the bodies to show things off.....

108. Hey Stan Heck. Why don't you visit www.kathyireland.com. Kathy Ireland is far from an idiot. She runs a billion dollar company and she is smarter than you will ever be. Next time check your facts first before you open the big hole in your face.

109. Why does the watering can have water in it? There aren't any flowers there. This made it slippery for the models after her. The shoes are too high. If they ate something they would have energy to walk.

110. If she is gardening,(-- in silk--) she should have stopped, pulled off those ugly shoes, carried them in her other hand, and proceded gracefully barefoot .
..... I am sure after this show of the shoes, presenting it was the shoes problem, will be the only item that will catch the brunt of this walk, or not walk, that being no sales for the shoe company...........

111. I am really shocked at the unfeeling and nasty comments. Another human being fell and may have been injured while at work. Yes, at work that is her work. I hope that none of the mean people here fall and have someone take pictures of them. Sad commentary on our so called civilization in my opinion....

113. I feel so sorry for that girl. Not only will she probably have a difficult time finding work after this, but her accident is being played over and over again on t.v., the internet, etc. I wish they would quit showing it, and I'd like to see that designer try to walk in those shoes and stay up!

115. This really isn't funny folks. I can relate to this gal. Two years ago I slipped in the mud and "Spiral Broke " my ankle. Believe me... It can and does happen. If it happens to you, the last thing you feel like doing is laughing. By the way.. I'm not some fragile little girl. I'm a 210 pound guy. It can happen !!!!!!!!!!!!!

116. LMAO! That last teeter totter move made me laugh hysterically. I had to replay that part about ten times and laughed til I cried.

Poor thing maybe shes hungry, she probably hasn't eaten in six months.

117. give the girl a break at least she is trying to make something with her life. mistakes/accidents happen get over it and get a life. at least she tried to do what was asked of her, nasty shoes and a bucket of water walking on a runway in front of thousands of people will make you nervous she did her best. lets see one of you dip sticks get up and try. just because you are skinny does not mean you do drugs and models get the blame for some stupid stuff not all are stupid GET A LIFE LEAVE HER ALONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

118. Is it me but, when she falls look at the wall there's a picture of a penis on it.

119. I THINK THAT PEOPLE ARE WAY TOO NEGATIVE , AND OF COURSE , ALWAYS HAVE SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT SOMEBODY. WOULD YOU LAUGH IF IT WAS YOU? I DOUBT IT. ACCIDENTS HAPPEN EVERYDAY ,WHO CARES IF IT IS A FASHION MODEL. I THINK PEOPLE PAY TOO MUCH ATTENTION TO FASHION ICONS ANWAYS. THERE ARE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS IN THIS WORLD TO WORRY ABOUT.
