Following his Isle Of Wight Festival headline set, Liam Gallagher says he fell out of a helicopter - but joked that his photo of his injured face could make his next album cover.
The Oasis star turned solo artist posted a tweet to say he had fallen out of the aircraft and compared himself to the late The Who drummer Keith Moon, who was notorious for his wild behaviour.

He reassured fans that he is "all good" and also joked in a later post that the photo would make the cover shot for his next album.
One fan replied asking about the height of the fall, saying Gallagher must have missed the step and "face planted" after the helicopter had landed, but did not mention this "because that's not very rock n roll".
Gallagher jokingly responded to say it had been "100 thousand feet". To another fan asking if there was any footage or CCTV of the incident, he said: "Yeah it's in the nxt video."
The incident did not happen on site at the festival. It is not known if the star sought medical treatment for his injuries.
It comes ahead of the release of Oasis Knebworth 1996, a new documentary looking back at band's most notorious gigs.
Gallagher headlined the Isle Of Wight Festival on Friday night, with Tom Jones, James, Becky Hill and Primal Scream also on the bill.
Wightlink said Sir Tom was pictured on his way back to the mainland with crewman Rodel Mendoza on board the vessel Victoria of Wight.
Liam Gallagher, during his set, played Oasis hits including Rock 'N' Roll Star Cigarettes & Alcohol, as well as solo songs such as Wall Of Glass and Shockwave - before an encore of Supersonic, Acquiesce, Roll With It and Live Forever.
Duran Duran are set to close the festival tonight, with The Script, Supergrass, Imelda May and Razorlight also among the acts on the line-up.
