During the first night of the North American leg of One Direction’s On the Road Again tour in San Diego, California, Harry Styles took a big, silly, backwards tumble to the ground. This was also America’s first Zayn-free One Direction concert. Coincidence?

Incredible video footage documents the very very funny yet also shocking as well as disturbing and also seemingly other-worldly fall:

Incredible. Did the devil Zayn pull Harry Styles to the ground from the center of the Earth, the wicked place where He now rests his shaven head? Did Harry’s microphone cable get stuck, and then he also tripped over it a thousand times? Did he fall because he is just TOO CUTE?

Only Zayn knows.

R.I.P. Zayn.
