Blown up Athena

In 1988 while hosting a segment from the military display event The Royal Tournament for the long forgotten Saturday morning kids show UP2U, Athena Turner found herself in a dangerous situation. Sitting on the back of a truck Turner was doing a piece to camera when she forgot that a motorcycle stunt rider would jump out of the truck with accompanying pyrotechnics. The resulting blunder left Turner with second degree burns though she did recovered to maintain a long career.
