Jimmy Buffett posted a video message to the fans who thought he kicked the bucket in Australia saying, “The reports of my death are grossly over-exaggerated.”

Showing off his new bandages, Jimmy recorded a video update about his health following a horrific onstage fall during a show Down Under last week, explaining, “I’m on the mend.” Buffett called off his planned Saturday concert in New Zealand to give himself some time to heal after the fall he took from a Sydney stage last Wednesday. The singer reportedly was unconscious for several minutes after he fell into a pit in front of the stage at the end of his performance. He was transferred to a local hospital for treatment, and released hours later. Buffett is scheduled to kick off his next round of U.S. shows April 16th in Tampa.
