The 'Heart Skips A Beat' singer slid down flight of stairs during cover of Stevie Wonder song.
Olly Murs fell down a flight of stairs during his performance at the GuilFest festival in Guildford, Surrey at the weekend.
The 'Heart Skips A Beat' singer was midway through a cover of Steve Wonder's 'Signed, Sealed, Delivered (I'm Yours)' when he took an unfortunate tumble.
Attempting to descend a flight of stairs to join the crowd, Olly slid from the top step and can be seen disappearing from view in a video of the incident.
Fortunately, the singer quickly regained his footing and could be heard telling a concerned security guard: "I'm alive, it's alright."

Olly's performance marked one of the star's first gigs back in the UK since returning to Britain following his US tour with One Direction.

Meanwhile, the singer announced recently that he would be releasing his first book later this year.
The 'Dance With Me Tonight' star will publish his official story in October, following his rise to fame on The X Factor and his music career since, and is set to feature over 100 exclusive pictures.
"My life has been a non-stop roller coaster of extreme emotions, crazy days, unexpected highs and yet my life hasn't been without its low points too," Olly says in the announcement press release for Happy Days.
"I hope this book will give you a behind the scenes view of my journey into a place where I finally found what had been missing in my life for all those years: music."
The release of Olly's new biography falls just one month after he launches the US version of his album 'In Case You Didn't Know' in America, which includes a new version of his single 'Heart Skips A Beat' featuring US act Chiddy Bang.
