00:00If you've been to a karaoke bar, you've seen someone sing their heart out.
00:10Oh, big time.
00:13It's rare, though, that that kind of passion results in serious injury.
00:18But that's what's happened in our next story.
00:21In China, Wang Zi was so dead set on hitting the high notes in the hit song, The New Drunken Concubine, that he collapsed a lung and had to be hospitalized.
00:41I've never even thought of.
00:43Everybody's been there.
00:44Collapsed my lung at karaoke again.
00:47A 25-year-old guy wound up in the emergency room with a collapsed lung after straining himself while singing karaoke at a friend's birthday party.
00:56I can't even imagine doing one of the screams or something that I do in here from time to time.
01:02Like the, you know, gay tornado siren or something like that, and then all of a sudden my lung collapsed.
01:09Like, and what would happen at that point?
01:11I'm going to rush in and give you my mouth to mouth.
01:13Oh, yes, puff me up.
01:14He'll blow you back to life.
01:15That's true.
01:16I'm fine.
01:17Oh, no, I'm not.
01:18Oh, it collapsed again.
01:20So he, Wang, attended his friend's birthday party, decided to show off his voice by singing this song, famous for its high-pitched tones it demands.
01:29When he reached the high-pitched part of the song, he really gave it his all, but then felt a sharp pain in his chest, which made him drop to his knees.
01:39His family rushed him to the hospital.
01:40His family rushed him to the hospital.
01:41He told doctors what had happened and that he felt pain in his right lung.
01:46An x-ray showed that he had collapsed a lung.
01:51Oh, that's crazy.
01:51A potentially life-threatening condition where air bubbles form between the lung and the chest wall.
01:56It was this song that he was singing when he did it.
02:04Starts off pretty hot.
02:05The new drunken concubine by Lee Ugang.
02:11All right, let's get this.
02:16Killer, so far.
02:17This guy slays all the bitches.
02:26Really?
02:27Big time.
02:31Too much sorrow.
02:32There's no need to say he's right.
02:35He's wrong in love.
02:37It tastes like a song.
02:38I know.
02:39I just want to drink one more cup with you in my dream.
02:44A golden spell and a jade hairpin.
02:47He was a gift to me.
02:49He must really kick in soon.
02:52They perform life after life.
02:57When are you going to belt it, bud?
03:00It's got to be coming up right here.
03:02Yeah, come on.
03:03Kick into the chorus.
03:03This would not collapse along.
03:08Is it just?
03:10There you go.
03:13That's it.
03:14I've seen you before.
03:17You're raising my glass to the moon.
03:22Oh, right there, yeah.
03:26There's a lot of these Asian guy singers that are like really push the limits of like the
03:32male voice.
03:32If I heard that and didn't see that, I'd think it was a female.
03:38Right.
03:38Oh, yeah.
03:39Yes.
03:41Is it?
03:42Or is that him as a geisha now?
03:44It's possible.
03:45Emphasis on the geisha.
03:46Yeah.
03:47I think so.
03:49That's got to be him, right?
03:51That's got to be him.
03:51I think so.
03:53I think it is.
03:54Is there a woman?
03:54I think there's a woman singing.
03:56I think there's a woman in the song as well.
03:57I think it's a combo.
03:58I think that's a woman singing to him.
04:00I think that's him, you guys.
04:02I don't think it's him.
04:03I think it's him.
04:04I really don't.
04:04Can we do a side-by-side of the face?
04:06I don't know if you'd be able to tell.
04:08Is that him in the top right too as a male and then with the makeup on?
04:11Yeah, that's the same guy.
04:12He's a very feminine man.
04:14So he is.
04:14Yeah.
04:15He's his own whore in the video.
04:16He's his own kind.
04:17He's his own tang.
04:18He remembers the tang.
04:20His tang.
04:21His back tang.
04:23Back tang.
04:25Oh, it's him, guys.
04:26Yeah, that's him.
04:27It's him.
04:28No question.
04:28Same nose.
04:29I mean, I felt like...
04:30Cross-dressing lady man.
04:32It's the thing over there.
04:33Yeah, I guess it is.
04:34And you try and do it yourself, you'll blow the lung right out of you.
04:38Yeah.
04:39Yeah.
04:39You got to be born, I think, that way.
04:43You know, with that kind of voice that, you know.
04:45He really wanted his buddy's birthday party to be awesome.
04:48No, he did.
04:49He did.
04:49He did at all.
04:50Can you imagine?
04:53Chuck shows up to Andy's birthday party and is like,
04:56I'd like to sing something to you, please.
05:00That's so beautiful.
05:07Be careful.
05:08Be careful.
05:08Be careful.
05:08Be careful.
05:08Be careful.
05:08Be careful.
05:09Breathtaking.
05:16Thanks so much for doing that for me for my birthday.
05:21Welcome.
05:23I'm glad you didn't collapse along.
05:24Here is my rendition of a new drunken concubine by Lee Jo Hank.
05:31I don't know the words, this part isn't as impressive to me as when he dresses up as a girl and really gets after it.
05:45Where'd you get that outfit?
05:48Where'd you get that outfit?
05:48Where'd you get that outfit?
05:49Chuck is a geisha?
05:50I ordered it.
05:52Strangely enough, they built this geisha outfit in India.
05:57Oh, weird.
05:57Oh, weird.
05:58Shipped it.
05:59Beautiful.
05:59He's singing, Andy.
06:03Let him be.
06:03Favorite birthday ever.
06:06Things got weird, Andy.
06:08I knew it'd be killer.
06:09When Chuck sang, that got really weird there.
06:13Yeah.
06:14None of us knew what to do.
06:15And nobody's ever done that for me.
06:17No.
06:19No one was expecting.
06:20I wanted to give you a gift no one else could.
06:22The gift of song.
06:23Have you received the gift of song?
06:25Yeah.
06:26From a man.
06:27It's rare.
06:27Ha ha ha ha.
06:29Ha ha ha.
