Michael Jackson's Hair Catches Fire Filming Pepsi Ad in 1984

[BPR998]

dude it fuckin looked like they attacked him at 0:34

[skylerrb]

lol i remember my friend told me michael jackson's penis burned off ib a pepsi commercial and i actually believed it. but i was 9 at the time.

[clubpenguinjamie4886]

its cause he was wearing hair gel and it was flammable

[SuperNoobTroll]

damn that's fucked up

[KilljoyMaggot28]

michael jackson- -hair sets on fire- OW!

[lezhotty83]

there is another video on youtube about the accident someone told michael jackson to stay on the stairs longer to look majestic... whoever gave him that advice should be shot

[NICOLENPOP]

my poor baby...:(

[boi187]

Michael Jackson masturbated over the phone to a 13 year old boy (Terry George)... Just check out the Michael Jackson/Terry George story, the phone call was even recorded by Terry George.

[Gloatyloceth]

anyone happy about this is just as good as someone who touches little kids.

[girlcrazyrockstar]

that sucks

[addikt2011]

well he was perverted but this really messed him up

anyone would be messed up if their skin starts losing color and they lose their hair

[LBJTV]

@addikt2011 perverted because you say so.

Having kids around you doesn't make you perverted if it's not sexual..but of course..the average person is narrow-minded and will just come to the conclusion that it's wrong because it's different.

[gunxperp]

Lol

[ludaev]

thats what happens when your a gay pervert

[NahShizzums]

@ludaev wtf are you talking about? the ones who supposidly were 'victims' after he died came out and said they lied!!!!!!!!

[danjodan]

@ludaev Gay pervert?

What you smokin?

[4gnomesx3]

BOOM At 0:22

[corvey]

lol @ .34, that spin was so fast!

[corvey]

Jheri curl juice is at fault here, not pepsi...

[YouGottaPurdyMouth]

I like my negro well done.

[ludvik4867]

WTF it took about 10 seconds for someone to notice!!

[misterrandompancake]

he's so awesome he puts himself out by doing his legendary 5g spins

[bregha]

i hope he felt that

[MegaTruekilla]

if you didnt look at his hair u would think that he was getting jumped

[Alleybooh123]

O.O

[skullythebloger]

*go's off stage dancing*

guess he really can solve anything with his moves...

zombies or fire O_O

[rapesaurus10]

wow my great uncle got that video on this crap we be rich but he stupid and gave to dumbass company to put on youtube

[RhythmPanda]

@rapesaurus10 Don't be a fucking idiot.

[saskwche]

this shits hilarious

[jessbritt121]

wow..

thats sad,

Michael Jackson hated Pepsi.

[lam0o]

yy do they evenn show this it looks so sad i luv michael jacksonn(:

[Amirulhusaini123]

LOL If you see closly after all the people crowd around him you will see a man playing a guitar and was unaware!!!!

[AleezaChocolat]

You can hear the CNN crew in the background . . . someone whispers "Oh, wow," and then when the footage of MJ's bloody head is shown at the end, it sounds like someone whispers, "Shit" or "Shoot" . . .

[armedturtle]

they did it on purpose so they could beat him up

[laasah]

so sad R.I.P MJ

[catgirl24]

My poor baby went thru so much pain. :(

[Hax138]

Because it's fucking funny.

[michealfan1234]

must be just as funny as ur face

[addisonmoreno]

you shouldnt... that why he started using medications and dugs and stuff

[CorinaMinto]

you weirdo, my frend will be on her way to kill you right now.... well not NOW but when i tell her she is a CRAZYMEGA mj fan.... >:(

[pooper4]

I'm sorry, but I can't read my comment because 8 retarded mj fans couldn't hold their tears back, so I don't even know how I could have angered anyone now.

[darrel1551]

i agree cuz without this commercial he wouldnt start to use painkillers

[TheMichaeljacksonman]

ok first michael did not do anything to hurt pepsi 2nd the peeple who set off the fire shood of ben sued 4 that and im not drinkin pepsi again

[forbesfoofighters]

hhaha your a loser you stop drinking pepsi because of a stupid pyro accident during the filming of their commercial??

[TheMichaeljacksonman]

@forbesfoofighters no i havent i love pepsi

[mattmoo09]

@TheMichaeljacksonman For gods sake seriously its called an accident you moron open your eyes!!!! Also its not pepsi that should be sued its Michael Jackson. Why i hear you ask. He touched little boys deny but anyone who is not blinded by stupid devotion to this peadophile knows its true. Go watch the Martin Bashir documentary he admitted sharing beds with young children, he was a genious no question but come on!

[1990babyface]

@mattmoo09 Stupid Ass Bitch.

[TheMichaeljacksonman]

@mattmoo09 i think that ur called an accident because ur mom got raped

[GlueBubb1e]

and this video suggests where it starts, get it.

dumbass.

[imanputri]

Stupid pepsi i don't think Micheal would even die if that stupid pepsi advertisement ever showed up!

[1990babyface]

@imanputri I totally agree with you because he was addicted to the drugs for his scalp, then he started to be addicted.

[1990babyface]

@imanputri That's It. That is the right answer.

[jessbritt121]

@imanputri

i know right???

[gr8guy71]

i am sure all the products in his hair at the time were flammable.

[raylou320]

He only put water on his hair that day... So instead of the fire spreading it stayed in one place and burned further into his scalp almost to his scull.

[gr8guy71]

thanx for that info. they said on msn that he had afrosheen and hairspray in his hair,goes to show you how pathetic the media is.

[raylou320]

You're very welcome.

Just goes to show you really can't trust them at all. You gotta do the long research for real facts yourself.

[pianoboy01]

exactly. as we can tell he was a hair man

[yosikawa3911]

not to be rude but the way he freaked out wen he finally realized his hair wuz on fire was funny!

[raylou320]

You can't say things like that and not be rude dumbass. Lets light your hair on fire and see if it's still funny!

[seeehorn]

I saw the 1992 Jackson's movie a few days ago and it showed that JOE JACKSON is the one who convinced Michael Jackson to do this Pepsi commerical to help out his brother's, who nobody wanted to see perform without MJ......DAMN, JOE JACKSON SCREWS MICHAEL AGAIN!!

numberr9, this incident was definitely someone's fault because the pyro was supposed to go off when MJ was going down the steps, not while he was still standing at the top.

[Ladymodel]

I dont think that movie is entirely accurate...because the way they potrayed the scene was totally false. As you could see, Michael did not feel his fire that soon, and he didnt fall down the steps

[ZzRvXzZ]

Thats funny... R.I.P =/

[Zafironka]

If it's funny to you, bicous you just don't like Michael, think of him as a person that was realy badly bournd :(

I'm sory for my mistakes, I'm just lerning english :(

[premrulzzz]

For all those People who Making UnNeeded and Foolish Comments on this Incident happened to Michael Jackson...

The Show he was Preparing n Performing was Meant for Charity...

and You Know What....

HE DIDNT TAKE EVEN A SINGLE PENNY FOR HIMSELF on that PERFORMANCE of HIS.....

All of the Foolish Commenting People.....

GET THIS THING IN YOUR MIND...and STOP Bad Comments on the NICE SOUL

[numberr9]

He didn't have to take those painkillers ya know so why did he if it would put his health in danger... ? really I think M.J. should take care of himself those burns on his head. It was no-one's fault but usually it happens when ppl are really absent-minded...sigh

[101marine3]

Jackson didn't even drink pepsi. LOL he just signed a contract with them.

[altimaboy24]

wats demerrol?

[seraphx20033]

?????????

[picklehorn]

fuck pepsi coke is better thumbs up

[Mr09lilwaynefan]

I would have sued the company.

[AmYGoAwAy]

owch!!!poor michael

[gitarguy222]

lmfao his wig caught fire xD

[101marine3]

not a wig.

[Ladymodel]

Fuckin Pepsi killed my Michael!!! I hope they loose every fuckin penny day have!

[Darthyodel]

Saying Pepsi killed Michael is like saying Einstein is responsible for dropping the bomb on Hiroshima...get real!

[angelajada98]

and thats why i go with coca cola lol

[Ladymodel]

All of this shit caused Michael pain, thanks alot Pepsi with ur over calorie shitting drink!!

[GlueBubb1e]

I'm Never drinking Pepsi again my life. Sickens me.

[NikkiClo]

Yeah Pepsi killed him 25 years later..twat

[seraphx20033]

People sending me stupid comments just makes this video even more funny for me .Like i said , this is the funniest video ive seen in a long time SUPERFUNNY

[Legend813a]

I think Wolf's beard should catch on fire

[oOhanhans]

pepsie got him addicted to pain killers after this, so therefore pepsie killed him and i think that his kids should be compensated and get money off pepsie for for killing their father.

[Legend813a]

God you are dumb.

[Elyseis2fly]

i agree but can you spell pepsi right please

[Churnz]

LooooL HIS HAIR FLIES AROUND WEN THEY SLAP HIM 0:35

[datguatboii]

That's Messed Up How It's All Serious But Then....They Put The Looney Tunes Song....Like WTF?

Ya'll Some Sick Bastards

[deljean]

LMFAOOO Yall some GULLIBLE ASS BITCHES Who DONT KNOW SHIT about him!! Bitch ass HUNKIES!!!! Rip Mj

[scottj69]

HUnkies??? you mean Honkies? Get it right Negro....You see I spelled yours right the first time, probably cus Im white and educated.

[seraphx20033]

this is the funnist video ive ever seen

[jingerkissmelove]

you are a DICK.

burn in hell.

I don't think it's funny,I think it's sad...

you really,I mean REALLY should burn in hell.

fuck you motherfucker.

[seraphx20033]

wow ......Your basically calling me insensitive

but in the same breath your saying burn in hell and calling me a motherfucker ?? haha good one kiddo

[glocker8888]

omfg that is HILARIOUS

jacko wasn't that hot since Webster sat in his lap LOL

[JETFLIX]

pepsi did not kill him jerry curl did

[rackonly]

Es el colmo, que ahora saquen el video de este terrible accidente de Michael, estoy de acuerdo, ya dejenlo DESCANSAR EN PAZ!

[TVK1337]

What was with that Looney Tunes music at the end of the clip. Not cool.

[nadeschdaZH]

then he stars to turn like an ape-man!!

cadavre before he died

[gabrielaagos]

Que morbosos q son...... no lo puedo creer!! Porq ahora sale a la luz este video, 25 años mas tarde? Sera que ni siquiera puede descansar en paz? Que cerdos. No fue un accidente, fue culpa de la negligencia de alguien, pero los medios y la prensa son un asco, especialmente aca en Argentina q se burlaban con esta imagen tan desesperante. A veses no entiendo q es lo q buscan con todo esto.....

[RustyKitty11]

Yo se. por dios, esta muerto. que ya lo dejen descansar en paz. si era la culpa de el hombre que estaba controlando las explosiones. se metio en problemas. pero ya! fue hace tanto tiempo. pobrecito el hombre. que descanse en pas.

[runningnaruto]

if there a hair on fire video clip with sound?

[seeehorn]

Through0001, I somewhat agree with you about this 1984 incident being overstated because MJ went on that worldwide Victory tour after this incident took place. There is also video of MJ singing to his mother at a private family event less than 4 months(May/1984) after this incident took place. Don't get me wrong, though, his HEAD BEING ON FIRE definitely contributed to his addtction to prescription drugs. I don't think it was the sole reason for it though.

[aznboy558]

PEPSI KILLED MJ! no no i am jking but RIP Michael Jackson

[Through0001]

i have nothing against michael jackson but this is obviously an excuse used for what he became after this incident. Why did this footage come out after his death. obviosuly so he could not contradict anything. it was probably leaked by fanatics. besides, only his hair caught fire. it's bullshit that his face had 2nd and 3rd degree burns!!

[APARICIONMICHAELL]

no compren pepsi culpables

[danielhuntsinger]

i counted 7 seconds that Michael kept doing his thing after his head was ON FIRE!!!!! Further proof that Michael was and always will be THE MAN...much love Michael...love, one of your millions of dance impersonators

[CaptainMego]

kathy griffin was an extra in that comercial

[Rae21896]

RIP MICHAEL JACKSON KING OF POP

[Sophie482]

OMFG HIS HAIR

[MrDreadster]

Mj aka Friar Tuck lol

[MrDreadster]

mj aka friar Tuck lol

[YoungMusicLuver1]

I <3 u Michael! R.I.P

[handsandfaces]

LOL he was still dancing

[seeehorn]

Why did MJ continue making commercials with Pepsi after this incident?? The PIECE OF GARBAGE who set off the pyrotechnics too early should be really suffer for doing that. Was that person ever identified?

For those of you who feel that MJ is getting too much attention, why are you even commenting here. Go leave your RIDICULOUS comments about MJ on the Iraq/Afghan War channels. MJ was one of the biggest stars of all time and his death takes top billing over everything!!

[Problembeing]

Not only that, they pulled out after the allegations. They OWED him. Fuckers. What was he doing fucking soft-drink commercials for. Bloody Frank Dileo.

[seeehorn]

Problembeing, do you think PAPA JOE also convinced MJ to do these commercials. I mean MJ's brother's had been out of the spotlight for years, I'm sure the family wanted the brother's to get some of MJ's spotlight.

There are several commercials(after this incident) posted on youtube of MJ working with Pepsi. You would think that MJ would have been PISSED at Pepsi for doing that to him.

[Problembeing]

Definitely. It was all handled so corporately. I hope he never did any other corporate gig or advert after he was dropped by them. Evil. I think he was never the same after that, and I think Dileo was akin to another Joe Jackson...  Maybe even his shill. Whatever the case, I can't actually watch this video again, it is truly saddening.

[jeysdee23]

i really like MJ. he was just inspiring inspite of his cases. :( but still, he help children and charities and inspired a lot of people even if some people are acting like the bad guy in his life. let him rest in peace guys, he had suffered enough. :(

[s0ana]

Le pauvre...je n'aimerai pas être à sa place! & pour tous les imbéciles qui s'amusent à se moquer de lui, j'espère que ces eux qui auront leurs cuir chevelu brûlé pour voir ce que ça fait, et s'ils ont tant aimé la vidéo de Michael j'espère q'ils prendront 2 fois plus de plaisir à se moquer d'eux-même ;)

[gorgeouschelsea]

rest in peace michael jackson...

you were such a wonderful and kind-hearted person.

you inspired millions of people through your wonderful music. it's really painful for us (your fans) that you're already gone... but we can still SMILE knowing that you are already in a better place where NO ONE will NEVER, EVER hurt, criticise and humiliate you ever again... thank you so much mj... you will always be remembered and forever lived in our hearts...

i love you so much michael jackson..

r.i.p

[SrdelosMares]

R.I.P.

[kdavs09]

That was extreme and i wonder if michael jackson did see the video himself. i remember after that incident happened something in him did change. i always loved mj though and thought a lot of him as a caring individual and artist. i cant believe that peopl;e made fun of something like this though. he is in a better place now and i pray for his kids through all this

[VOICESINMYHEAD1]

dud have to see it!!!!! cause he expirienced it!

[Trojanblade25]

I'm an idiot???

Do you want to know whats really idiotic?

That there are soldiers constantly dying in iraq and afghanistan but people like you would rather cry and mourn for a fucking dead celebrity.

Yeah that's it, let's all forget about those troops fighting for us because MJ won't be making any more music.

Is it any wonder the human race is fucking going downhill when people act like this over celebs?

[catgirl24]

Trojanblade25 - Another idiot equating the death of soldiers to a celebrity's death. Did you say the same crap to the people mourning and crying for Farrah Fawcett? F'ing hypocrite wanker!

[Trojanblade25]

Whoa! Put those claws away girl.

[emandjaz123]

OMG OUCH R.I.P

[Iamuli]

SOB" they never cared about Michael."

I love that line.!!!

I must admit he put on a HELL of a show!

[Yayo015]

Now that's a flamin' hot performance! /bad pun

[LadyGds]

Critical moment?!... so they decided to hide this footage for 25 years?! WTF!!!!! If they would have fucking spoke about it at the time properly - instead of showing clips of him on a fucking stretcher MAYBE he would have found the confidence to get through such a tragic time and move forward - without the feeling of pain & depression!!!! DO THESE PEOPLE NOT FUCKIN THINK?? I mean WHAT is the point of studying it now??!!.... Ohhh - Now that his dead u wanna get to know him - OH FUCK OFF!!!!!

[rickyfan3956]

It was more than likely that MJ himself didn't want anyone to show it. I mean, think about it: If it happened to you, you'd be pretty embarrassed by the whole thing, so would you want the whole world looking at it?

[LadyGds]

I would be pissed of - thas for sure! But think of it like this NEVER B4 SEEN FOOTAGE - maybe Jackson him self had never saw it let alone not what any1 else to (lets protect him from the horror! It wouldn't suprise me them saying that) - and now that his gone we'll just never kno! These people never cared about Michael so everything they say is just BS to me!

[rickyfan3956]

Yeah, I agree they never cared about him. That's not surprising to me. But think about it: If they did show this, he could've sued the (insert your own expletive here) out of them. Not only that, Pepsi Co. probably didn't want it shown, either, and they could've sued the **** out of whoever did show it. I'd be surprised if they didn't try to now. They were probably under some kind of orders not to show it.

[LadyGds]

Fair enough - but it never help Micheal did it? According 2 what they're saying it practically disrupted his life! No1 can change that moment or relate 2 what he must have felt..! Michael's whole life was 1 big climax & I feel 4 the person he was inside. Yes it took me awhile and endless tears 2 come 2 terms with his death - god knows how I cried & how much it STILL hurts.. but I'm somewhat glad he has passed, so that now he can be surrounded by tru, honest love! Strange - but It was his time. x

[rodgermourtagh]

poor michael. I wish I was there and I could help him

[LiberalElitistMedia]

One star for posting Wacko Jacko video.

[WizeMen924]

I know that he took alot of media heat.. but that comes with the fame and fortune..not all the money in the world could of made this man happy.. i feel sorry for Blanket

[meeklegit61]

(theredpillxxx) bitch you need to get monkey stomped bith put yo self in his shoes how and the fuck would you feel..... right you dont but the media need to let this man rest it ashamed wat ppl do to get ratings and shit lke that may you all go to hell...l0l

[rickyfan3956]

MONKEY STOMPED??? ROFL!!! I never heard of that before!!! Good one!!!

[rickyfan3956]

Sorry, didn't mean to give you a thumbs down. Meant to give you a thumbs up.

[30thFinest]

ppl are quick to judge him but when was he ever convicted???lol ever heard of money.. fact still remains he never was convicted by a jury of his peers..so the media convicted him not a judge or jury..dummies(for all the idiots stating he was a molester)

[thereallurker]

man, these media types are gruesome.  they'll show you anything for ratings.

[30thFinest]

so when was he convicted??? exactly keep ur stupid comments..and whats brittany spears and paris hilton and the rest of the drug addicted idiots excuse i guess thats y shes the all american mom and paris is americas sweetheart..

[jimjimijanisbriannme]

motherfucker

(theredpill)

[rickyfan3956]

That section of the article says that anyone being administered sodium Amytol becomes extremely vulnerable to any requests given by another person. It is also possible for that person to be coerced into having a false memory of an event,. In other words, somebody plants a memory into their head. Sounds to me like good ol' Dad not only did some gold-digging, but he did some memory-planting, as well.

[serra121]

I Cant Believe How Fucked Up People Can Be !

That Shit Aint Even Close To Funny

I Know If It Happened To You You Would Be Crying To !

And If You Dont Like Michael Then Dont Waste Your Time Watching The Damn Video Jackasses !! Lol

And This Is To MrNePis And Th Rest Of You Haters !

Ily Michael Joseph Jackson Rest In Peace You Will Be Missed :)

[KurdRaw]

It's wrong to be glad that something like that happens to someone.

[dattebayo978]

ok, like all of you idiots (i wont swear on youtube) who are all dissing michael for being a pedophile and a perv or you're laughing at him for this terrible accident...think about how much that would hurt. the poor guy was victim to haters and so many people would diss him for no reason. he was a great man seriously and i would totally get on painkillers if that ever happened to me. he kept singing for you butts cuz he knew it was important i would be terrified so SHUT THE HELL UP AND GO AWAY!!

[LuvTadnDixie]

It almost seems like he didn't even know at first . . . was he spinning because he was dancing or was he spinning out of panic and pain and shock?

[DMZHardcoreGod]

omg it bured a fuckin spot on his head that would hurt like a bitch omgf

[Em3ly11]

that is so sad seriously!

[madbug1965]

Back off you bunch of jackals! This is not freaking funny. Someone is getting seriously burned and you laugh about it. What is up with you bunch of heartless a-holes?

[iLuVsHoEs64]

well, i know this is bad but i'd rather have him have his hair catch on fire than have him die!

[julianxrs]

haha that was hilarious. i like MJ but the way he was spinning is really funny

[franciscotalancon]

haha that was hilarious.

although its kinda mean comment

im sorry that he died but that was effing funny

=)

[kelikel2]

U r pitiful! I hope u know that what goes around comes back around..as u have sewed ( laughing at an awful and clearly painful accident) so shall u reap (100 fold)!

[ItsSABRIINAA]

i bet all you people laughing are fat asses who don't know what laughing really means, i hope you think and look at the child hood of his [his dad pressuring him to get the dances right calling him big nose abusing him hitting him with ANYTHING] i mean come on?

[TinkerXxXTinaXxX22]

I feel so bad :-(

I've had my head burned my a straightener, and that hurts a lot, but this...oh my lord! I can't even imagine the pain...I cringe just thinking about it!

[meli9412]

michael was the best!!! it was something unexpected that his hair got on fire. poor guy but now he is in heaven where he wont be getting hurt emotionally by those stupid ass holes talking shit about him. 567883 go eat some shit if you dont know what to talk about and shut that stankin mouth of yours

[TheGeorgemichaelfan]

shut it ya haters..he is the king of pop always and forever!..oh and innocent before proved guilty!..turned out the lads father put him up to it!seems that anyone in the spotlight is condemned and loved all at the same time!leave him alone!

[yasemindemiray]

sorry my friends, I supposed to click thum up rather then thum down...

[Aandunno]

Pepsi's ass is Grass

[mindyourbizok]

That's sad. He had jerry curls and it is extremely flammable. I heard that he sustained 2nd and 3rd degree burns. I wonder if his skin healed.
