Slipknot DJ “set himself on fire” in horrific farm accident

August 25, 2024 Alan Cross 0 Comments 3 min read

Sid Wilson, the Slipknot DJ, was out on an Iowa arm with girlfriend Kelly Osbourne and was trying to light a bonfire when something went horribly wrong. There was an explosion that hit him in face, resulting in some serious burns on his arms and face.

The good news is that he’ll be okay. While he’s burned and badly singed, he didn’t inhale any of the flames so there’s no lung damage.
