Leno explained that he fell while trying to reach a restaurant on a hill, stating, 'I said, 'Well the hill doesn't look that steep. It's about 60, 70 feet. Let me see if I can go down there.' I rolled down the hill. Hit my head on a rock. Knocked me in my eye.' His willingness to venture where others may have hesitated, despite his age, speaks to his adventurous spirit.
Even after his injury, Leno felt compelled to perform, sharing, 'It's not that big a deal. It's alright.' This resilience is evident as he emphasizes the importance of continuing to do what he loves, even after a mishap.
After reflecting on his experiences, Leno humorously remarked, 'The great thing about this age is you don't learn by your mistakes. You keep doing the same stupid thing.' This comment encapsulates his comedic perspective and willingness to embrace life's unpredictability.
Having experienced significant injuries before, including third-degree burns and a motorcycle accident, Leno has always leaned into humor, stating, 'I joked about both incidents at my comedy shows after I fully recovered.' This demonstrates his ability to find levity in tough circumstances.
