Actress is forced to back out of job due to freak fidget spinner accident
It's all fun and games until someone is injured and out of work.
If you haven't heard of the fidget spinner, you've been living under a rock. It's the latest craze among the youths.
An Irish actress named Ayoola Smart took to her Instagram to share a picture of herself laid up in bed along with a message about her freak fidget spinner injury.
Smart wrote, "LIFE has a funny way of happening to you. Today I very unwilling had to pull out of the play #Futureproof due to a freak accident involving a #fidgetspinner and a small child."
According to the Irish Examiner, the actress was standing in a shop in her hometown of Cork, Ireland, when a child lost control of a fidget spinner. In the chaos that ensued, the child ended up hitting Smart behind her ear, giving her a concussion. Doctors ordered Smart to rest for up to two weeks to recover from the head injury.
The fidget spinner incident couldn't have come at a worse time for Smart who was set to appear in a play called Futureproof.
Just two weeks prior, Smart tweeted about her excitement over the new role.
