The Flaming Lips added another special effect to their stage show over the weekend: flying video screens.

The band were having their stage put up at an Oklahoma music festival when a freak weather storm hit, sending the video wall toppling and fans screaming.

Which all sounds a bit more dramatic than this video illustrates, but hey! Nobody got squashed. Good morning America!

[note: stage crashing occurs around the 50 second mark]
