Duck Call Room.” However, his absence was due to a recent hospitalization. His co-host Justin Martin detailed the incident, revealing that Robertson spent three days in the emergency room after falling off a boat during a hunting trip in Arkansas.“Typical Silas Robertson, in a dang hurry to get out of the boat,” Martin explained. “He went to take a long step instead of waiting for us to move the decoys and the shotguns… A BDH, a Big Dang Hurry, and he fell.”He continued, “When he fell, he fell on his oxygen machine — you know how he wears it like a bandolier.”However, Martin shared that Robertson jumped up and insisted he was fine.“I think he didn’t want anybody to see that he fell,” he said. “Except the problem is you’re covered in mud now, so we know that he fell.”Martin said that Robertson continued to claim he was okay, but as the day went on, it appeared that the situation was more serious.

He shared that he noticed the TV star was quieter than usual, leading Martin to wonder if Robertson had a concussion.“Duck Dynasty” alum Phillip McMillan also shared that days later, Robertson admitted to him that he was “in a lot of pain,” adding, “I’ve been in pain for three days.”They said that Robertson was experiencing low oxygen levels, which prompted his family to get him medical attention at the ER.

X-rays showed he sustained bruised ribs from his tumble. His low oxygen levels were allegedly attributed to panic attacks, a reaction to the pain from his injury.
