The stand-up comedian recalled how he tried to pull a Hollywood moment during the ‘Chaguo la Teeniez’ awards in 2010, only to be left high and dry.
He gave a shot to the kind of stunts drawn by Hollywood acts – coming down the stage from the roof top, only that his was a rope instead.
All was well until the rope got stuck, leaving him hanging mid-way for some 15 minutes.
