After having a serious hand injury which occurred at his home on June 26 that caused him to cancel that day's taping of The Tonight Show Jimmy Fallon, the late-night host, showed off a shiny new cast on his left hand while out for July 4th weekend. He was hospitalized in Manhattan last Friday after injuring himself at his apartment. Fallon shared a photo of his cast on Twitter last Friday evening, and wrote; 'Tripped and caught my fall (good thing)! Ring caught on side of table almost ripped my finger off (bad thing).' The f unnyman, who also joked that he was 'tweeting with one hand,' also added that he was 'drugged' and 'blessed.'
During the day out in New York on Sunday, he went casual in a plain black T-shirt with jeans and brown leather shoes. He showcased his Big Apple pride by wearing a navy New York Yankees baseball cap and finished off the look with a pair of black wayfarer shades. The funnyman is expected to make a full recovery but cancelled the taping for last Friday's episode of The Tonight Show.
The show has been put on a two-week hiatus starting Monday as Fallon heals. The late night host was seen the evening before the incident dining at Italian restaurant Scalinatella in the Upper East Side, sipping wine and posing for photos with fans. Interacting and partying with fans is nothing new for Fallon, making his night out par for the course for the popular host. He is frequently seen at restaurants and bars around the city, and always happy to pose with fans and have a few drinks.
Fans and celebrities including Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson tweeted well wishes toward the late night host as he updated social media a picture of his cast. In 2014 Fallon even admitted to enjoying the time he gets with some of his more inebriated fans after being approached by a few, telling the writer; 'In L.A. you wouldn't get those two drunk people coming up to me.
