conan o brien concussion

Conan O’Brien hit his head during a stunt for the “Tonight Show” and suffered a concussion, according to NBC and his guest star, actress Teri Hatcher.

The late-night host was examined Friday at a hospital and seemed to be in high spirits.

“Last thing I remember I was enjoying the play with Mrs. Lincoln, and the next thing I knew I was in bed being served cookies and juice,” O’Brien said.

Hatcher said O’Brien hurt himself during a gag making fun of her recent participation in a triathalon. Teri tells Lara she recently finished a triathalon [sic], so she and Conan were taping a bit based on that for “The Tonight Show.”

“We did this bit and at the very end, when we ran in to cross the finish line, he slipped as he was crossing the finish line and hit his head,” Teri says.

“He didn’t get off floor right away, but then he [seemed] like he recovered and [pulled] it together, and they did an instant replay, and you could really see his head hit the floor.” She continues, “He did go to the hospital and he does have a concussion.”
