Yikes! May she make a full and speedy recovery.
I hope she makes a full recovery. Watch all the nasty comments about how the 'ho' deserved it pop up on this article now. 😈
I've just been browsing on YouTube and found this video of her doing her signature move, a 25ft drop from the ceiling, OMG, I hope she'll be ok. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dSM8qWCfFw4&feature=related
OMG...that is terrible! Must have been awful to be there and see it too! :(
I just watched the video, wow that drop she does makes my heart lurch.
I hope she's ok. WOW! Signature move should be all the money thrown at her feet and the guys to broom it off the platform b/c there is so much. Nice! Good Stuff! I wish her good health and speedy recovery.
I've seen all of Tip Drills Videos....I even realized the other day she used to work at one of my favorite clubs down here in miami (Coco's). She was a BADD broad even then and still is when she rep KOD (King of Diamonds) @horsecrazy-I went on mediatakeout and almost every person on there wrote mean comments about how a stripper doesnt deserve anyone's prayer and that she should've had a real job🙁 People are so hateful when it comes to strippers @Tovah-KOD has nothing but the BADDEST dancers....Ive been there a couple times and they ALWAYS have to sweep the money of the stage and carry it off in trash bags!
JiggalLuv87 , I hope she keeps her money & not the establishment.
That article is weird it says lands on her head, but liver injury? I have often wondered about the hip hold stuff we do... we really are pressing our liver area on the pole and if you do a drop and land in say a jade, you really are holding all your weight right where you liver is. It can't be good. I try to stay away from these hip hold moves they just scare me
@Tovah-Megaclubs like KOD dont allow the dancers to pick up money thats thrown on stage, especially when there's 2 or more girls (to prevent unnecessary fights). The bouncers collect the money after every performance and if there's a celebrety (ie rappers like rick ross) they collect as the money is thrown. At the end of the night the money is counted via machine, split amongst the dancers based on who performed with whom, then they take out whats owed for tip out (ranges from $2-400 per dancer depending on what night and shift), and finally the remainder is given to the dancers. All the more reason Ive never wanted to dance at huge clubs in miami bcuz no matter how much it LOOKS like you've made, after all the little tipouts and such, its like you're paying more than you make a night.
JiggaLuv87--I'm not surprised at all. Anytime something like this happens to either a professional pole dancer or a stripper, there is all kinds of nastiness from the idiots who populate in droves You Tube and the internet in general. Apparently if your choice of career involves holding a metal pole between your legs and/or taking off your clothes, you are disqualified from the human race. Silly me--never realized this before.
omg that drop she does gives me chills!!!!
reportedly she climbed to the top of the pole and went grab the ceiling beam parts to trick there and her hand slipped and she fell 30 ft! wow still gives me chills, i wud never b that brave wow hope shes ok
Yeah, that drop in the video was pretty amazing. Unfortunately, even the best of us screw up sometimes--shit just happens. I really hope she pulls through.
Wow.. That drop really is amazing, made me cover my mouth in shock! I can't imagine what it must have been like to see it for sure, or worse.... To even be her. It must be excruciating... She is in my prayers, and I hope she fully recovers. To bash on a human soul because of their occupation is just disgusting.
what time is the drop in the video?
oh nvm i found it. Yea thats pretty scary but impressive. I hope she makes it through. Isnt there a song named after her?
++++++ thoughts and prayer
wow scary!!! I work in a club and girls do crazy things on the pole all the time its so scary because if anything happens you cant work until you are healed. Ive seen girls fall down stairs and off the stage before because they were drunk but the pole she was on in that video looks High as Hell our poles are half that height so if girls fall its not as bad. WOW I Hope this girl is okay <3 .
yea she is a very talented performer and she is in my thoughts and prayers tonight for sure. *fingers crossed* +++++❤️
Tip Drill is the one of the feature girls here at KOD. However, she is very daring (dangerous). Her routine involves her leaving the actual pole and crossing the pole beams that are connected to the ceiling. KOD used to be a warehouse so there are all types of beams on the ceiling. The poles there are approx. 22 feet high. My son knows her and follows her on twitter, and he told me that right before her accident she tweeted that she had just finished her Peach Ciroc. He told me it's normal there for the dancers to drink while working. However, she is doing better. She was tweeting yesterday.
I'm glad to hear she's doing better. A brutal reminder that drinking and poling do NOT mix.
Absolutely, especially when your climbing 22 feet above the ground!
Yeah here is a video that shows her hanging on the beams and then her signature move... wow! Hope she is ok:) http://www.atlnightspots.com/2010/pole-dancing-contest-tip-drill-hanging-with-1-leg-does-a-split-on-the-roof
Personally I cant say I support stripping, I truly think it's a very demeaning job for any woman to do, especially when you have DJ's narrating in the background with comments like "look at that bitch swing" however that does not mean people have the right to throw out nasty comments like "strippers deserve what they get" many times there are life circumstances that force girls into the trade unwillingly. yes, there are many girls who take it up for the money/fame/whatever. I may not respect their life choice, but never would i disrespect the individual or wish them harm. That accident could have happened to any pole performer, or aerialists for that matter. belittleing the women for what she does will do nothing but to stroke your own inflated sense of personal morality, my prayers are with her, and I hope one day she can find a job where she is respected for her talent, not just here D cup. and sorry for all the spelling mistakes, for some reason the spell checker was not working for me
