Ozzy Osbourne's Forgotten Video Disaster: The Exploding Mirror Incident (1984)

Description:
With the recent passing of Ozzy Osbourne, Robert John Hadfield takes us on a wild, forgotten ride through one of the strangest moments in Ozzy’s career. In 1984, while filming the music video for “So Tired,” Ozzy was injured by exploding glass—leading to canceled concerts, a hospital stay, and another infamous chapter in the Osbourne legacy.

This deep dive uncovers forgotten newspaper clippings from the Miami Herald, Tampa Bay Times, Mobile Register, and more, showing how the incident unfolded in real time. Robert also reads a hilarious and horrifying excerpt from Ozzy’s own book detailing what really happened when the glass hit him… and how his face “exploded” mid-Concorde flight.

If you're an Ozzy fan, a Bark at the Moon-era diehard, or just love bizarre rock history, this one's for you.
