Incredibly, Kennerley managed to finish the show before being taken to hospital.

The Aussie icon had previously spoken about the physical demands of the show.

“In my big number, I have to get on a trapeze and go up 15ft (4.5m),” she said.

“I’m helped by a very strapping, hunky trapeze artist and we do several movements including one called The Bird, and one where I have to hang by my feet.”

Footage has emerged of just that very moment - when Kennerley is suspended upside down before falling.

The video footage shows the moment Kennerley falls and people rush on stage to help her.

Two months ago Kennerley posted a video to Instagram of her learning to use the trapeze.
