A popular porn star and online gamer says she broke her back after leaping into a foam pit at TwitchCon in San Diego over the weekend.

Adriana Chechik, who streams on Twitch, revealed on Twitter that she suffered a broken back at the foam pit at the gaming convention on Sunday.

“Well, I broke my back in two places and am getting surgery to put a meter rod in for support today,” Chechik tweeted. “Send your support. When it rains it pours and I am definitely feeling the rain right now.”

She added: “Special shout out to the random off work EMT who got the workers at the booth to realize how bad I was injured and to make them keep me still and calm me down until others got there. [You really] kept me from crying badly.”

In a video of the incident at TwitchCon, you can hear Chechik, also an adult video star who has won a number of AVN Awards, say, “I can’t get up.”

A little bit later, an announcer appears to reassure that “No, no, she’s fine.”

A few other injuries took place in the foam pit.

A man named Chris Ricks tweeted, “my dumbass fell in after my round and I couldn’t walk most of last night and today the back still hurts.”

There also appeared to be a couple of leg injuries sustained there.

The incidents took place at the Lenovo booth. A spokesperson from the company told Kotaku, “We are aware of the incidents of TwitchCon visitors who sustained injuries in the gladiator game soft foam pit at the Lenovo booth. The area has since been closed for any further use while we work with event organizers to look into the incidents.”
