A fan was saved by Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin during their latest show on the Music of the Spheres Tour in Sydney, Australia.

Martin, 47, had been speaking to the crowd at Marvel Stadium just outside of Melbourne when he backed into the open space, video shared to social media shows.

They played a show without bassist Guy Berryman for the first time ever, Chris Martin fell through a trap door onstage (he's okay), and most recently Martin went viral on social media after he paused the band's set to help a young boy who was in distress.

Chris Martin has paused Coldplay's Sydney concert after spotting a young boy being crushed in the crowd. The British band's frontman stopped performing mid-set at Accor Stadium when he saw the little boy distressed in the mosh pit near the front of the stage.
