A Singer Falls 10 Feet Off the Stage but Keeps on Singing

A singer in Russia was walking to the front of the stage to start her performance, but she went too far and fell 10 feet down into the orchestra pit.  You can hear the thud as she lands, but three seconds later she starts singing.

Someone in the pit helped her onto a chair so she could sit while finishing her song.  And the pit platform was raised to stage level so the audience could see her perform. Some people thought the whole thing was staged, but it wasn't.  She ended up fracturing her foot and had emergency surgery.
