During Michael's lifetime, Michael Jackson has had many accidents happen while filming music videos, but there is one in particular that injured Michael terribly. On January 27th, 1984, Jackson filmed a Pepsi commercial at L.A.'s Shrine Auditorium in front of 3,000 fans. On first take, the pyrotechnics exploded as planned. Michael went on with filming. However, the sixth take went horribly wrong. The pyrotechnics went off too early, and lit Michael's hair on fire. Michael suffered second and third degree burns on his face and scalp.

This is really interesting to learn.I guess I never realized quite how dangerous filming a commerial could be.
