Travis Scott avoided disaster when he was nearly taken out by the mobile parasail prop on his Circus Maximus Tour stage in Brooklyn.
Scott hit the Barclays Center stage for the second of two shows at the venue on Tuesday night (December 19) and nearly had a disaster on his hands when the moving parasail bumped into him during a performance of “MAFIA.”
Luckily, the Cactus Jack CEO’s instincts kicked in and he athletically bounced to another part of the stage and continued to perform the J. Cole-assisted fan-favorite without missing a beat.

Scott is always looking for innovative ways to interact with his fans and deliver a unique experience, often including props and activations like a replica roller coaster or a monster truck.
His tour in support of Astroworld featured a roller coaster, while his current run includes a parasail that travels from one side of the arena stage to the next, with a select group of energetic fans handpicked by Travis taking turns on board.
After a pair of Brooklyn shows, the scene switches to “the World’s Most Famous Arena” on Thursday night (December 21) as Madison Square Garden welcomes the Circus Maximus Tour.
Scott raised the bar at his raucous Brooklyn shows as he nearly blew the roof off of Barclays Center when performing his “FE!N” anthem featuring Playboi Carti 10 times in a row each night.
“I’m ‘Fein’ing for more,” Scott fittingly told the crowd before prompting DJ Chase B to fire up the chaotic instrumental for the 10th time.
“It’s shirts flying off in this motherfucker,” Chase B said. “Y’all on some real ‘Fein’ shit right now.”
Trav then pleaded with security to “back the fuck up” so more ragers from the seats could join the madness in general admission on the floor.
This isn’t new for Travis Scott as the Cactus Jack boss performed his Kendrick Lamar-assisted “Goosebumps” 14 times in a row during a Houston concert in 2017.
“NYC THIS IS NOT A FIRE DRILL ITS THE REALLL THING. IM RESDY TO GO HAMMMMM,” Scott wrote before Monday’s show.
