I hardly think this “started his obsession with plastic surgery.”
He was no stranger to the surgeon’s scalpel long before this happened.

Hell no I don’t expect any kind of serious journalism from UW,but after everything that’s happened do we really need to see Michael Jackson’s hair on fire…again?
Plus, they reported on Britney’s BM’s last week.

You know, when it happened, I felt like it wasn’t that big of a deal. I had no idea that he was so injured in that incident. That made me sick to watch.

That is SO freaking sad.
It DOES make you wonder how things would have turned out if that had never happened. Poor Michael. :(

This is such shocking footage!! What a traumatizing experience this must have been for him!
I can’t believe MJ had to endure so much pain throughout his life. It’s really really sad.

If this incident and the falling off stage incident never happened he wouldn’t have been on pain killers.
it’s horrifying to watch.

That is so incredible. We’ve never seen the full footage of what actually happened, just that one pic with a flame coming off Michael’s head. In this you can see EVERYTHING that happened, including what his head looked like after the fire was put out. That is just SO horrible. To think if they had not had to do that 6th take…

That is so awful. After Michael, Anna Nicole, Heath…it just makes me terrified to ever take pain killers. What a freak accident, I feel so bad that it happened to him. It almost seems as if this is the turning point where his life starts to go down hill. Drug addiction is a horrible thing, and while many times people can function at the same time, it eventually catches up with them if they don’t get help. Very sad.

Does US Weekly have nothing better to do or report on?

So, did his hair ever grow back? I’ve heard numerous things like he was wearing a wig and what not… anyone know the truth?

My hair caught on fire once at a restaurant (candles on the table) and I didn’t know for a few minutes why everyone was pointing at me and screaming. I just heard this crackling and smelled this gross smell and then there was a lot of light. It takes a few minutes for the heat to reach your scalp. Luckily I just lost about 10 inches of hair in front and had minimal damage to my scalp. A few minutes later and my whole head would have been engulfed. This is awful to watch – poor, poor MJ! This really makes you wonder what if….

OMG… that’s pretty horrifying to watch. Even if you do not like Michael Jackson, that’s a terrible thing to see…
