Michael J. Fox rebounds after onstage stumble: 'It's no secret that people with Parkinson's fall,’ rep says
foxnews.comMichael J. Fox quickly rebounded from a fall onstage during a "Back to the Future" panel discussion on Sunday. The 61-year-old actor, who has Parkinson's disease, walked out from backstage to stand alongside co-stars Christopher Lloyd and Tom Wilson, but lost his balance when turning around.
He was close to a couch, which helped prevent him from falling to the ground and hurting himself. Fox regained his composure and carried on with the discussion. "Michael has Parkinson's.
