Bennie & The Mess: Watch Elton John hilariously fall out of a chair at a tennis match

Look, it’s cold, wet, and miserable here in Boston. We need something to lighten the mood.

How about a video loop of Sir Elton John falling out of a chair?

The Lion King singer was suddenly lying down after taking a royal spill at the recent Statoil Masters Tennis event at Royal Albert Hall in England. John was co-hosting the event, which benefitted his AIDS Foundation, with tennis legend Billie Jean King. You can see Martina Hingis in the video below, and other stars of the tennis world, like John McEnroe, Andy Roddick, and Kim Clijsters, were also on hand — but on much firmer ground.

It’s been widely reported that John wasn’t hurt or injured in the fall, so we can have a good laugh and move on with our sad, pathetic, freezing lives.

Carry on.

And the Vine, for endless entertainment…
