Imitating the performance of celebrities for a grand production can lead to fatal consequences if done without proper supervision. Jojo (not his real name) admired Paolo Ballesteros so much that he would watch the performances with glee and meticulousness.
A fifth grade student residing in Bulacan, Jojo has admired the moves of Ballesteros and even pretended to be like Ballesteros during his numbers. Jojo would be seen wrapped in a blanket when imitating the moves of Ballesteros. So impressed was Jojo with the performance of Ballesteros that Jojo attempted to replicate the dance.
According to the source, when his family left their home to watch ALDUB: Sa Tamang Panahon at a neighbor’s house, Jojo was left in their home dancing. He was even seen buying ice-water and was sweating profusely.
When the family returned home, they were shocked to see Jojo’s lifeless body slumped on the floor and still wrapped in the blanket. Initially, the family thought that Jojo hanged himself, as a reaction to their poverty and being left by their father. However, when the police checked the body, suicide was ruled out. The knot was too loose. The embalmer said that the nape was swelling, which could have been the result of a bad fall and Jojo could have fatally hit his head on the floor. The family speculated that Jojo could have attempted the dance routine of Ballesteros, and fell tragically on the floor.
The body of the Jojo was buried early this week.
Let the incident that happened to Jojo be a warning to all fans not to copy the risky performances of celebrities. Before doing a risky number, these celebrities have rehearsed well and are under supervision of professionals.
FP expresses condolences to the family of Jojo. May he rest in peace.
i feel sad for the boy and his family. pero sana po wag isisi kay Paolo at sa EB ang nangyari sa kanya. hindi nagkulang ng paalala ang EB na wag gagayahin ang mga stunts nila.
ReplyDeleteE PAANO NAMAN ANG HINDI KASI NAEEXPLAIN AT ALAM NG MGA GUMAGAYA EH MGA ILANG BUWAN DIN PINAGPAPRAKTISAN NG MGA PERFORMERS YUNG MGA GANUNG STUNTS....SI ANGEL NGA 2 YEARS NAINJURE PA! Pero 2yrs preparation for a role?
DeletePano nya nalaman yung steps kung wala pala silang TV dahil kinailangan pang makinood ng family nya sa kapit bahay. Tapos hindi sya nanood at nagsayaw lang..eh diba fan sya ni Paolo dapat pinapanood nya imbes nag-iisa sya sa bahay at nagpa-practice
DeleteOh no... Shivers seeing this. Prayers for his family. Everyone please do watch over the actions of young children.
ReplyDeleteHala!!!!! Nakakakilabot... May you rest in peace... Nakakaawa. Simpleng paggaya nya sa hinahangaan niyang tao nauwi sa ganto :(
ReplyDeleteOMG RIP talaga! My condolences to the family!
ReplyDeleteOmyghad. Grabe. Kaya lagi nila sinasabi na wag daw gagayahin eh, lalo na yung kay Jose. Tsk. Tsk. Lesson learned.
ReplyDeleteKAYA NGA ME PAALALA PARATI NA WAG GAGAYAHIN DAHIL MGA PROPESYONAL LANG GUMAGAWA MG MGA GANUN!
ReplyDeleteParang Yung Wrestling Hindi Din Dapat Gingaya....
RIP. Infer, hindi nagkulang ng paalala ang EB after ng performance ni Pao na wag gagayahin at pawang mga propesyonal lamang ang gumagawa noon. Nevertheless, this was a tragedy.
ReplyDeleteHindi sila nagkulang. I'm not a fantard, pero I watched the episode.. Hindi ko Lang matandaan Kung sino nagsabi sa mga dabarkads na wag nga daw gayahin..
DeleteSi allan K ang nagpaalala
DeleteSi AK ang nagsabi na pawang mga Propesyunal lang at wag gayahin..
Deletesi allank nagsabi na wag gagayahin
Deletenapanood ko performance ni paolo. si tito sen ata nagsabi non. at inulit pa ata ni bossing. plus everytime na pinapalabas yung practice ni paolo eh sinasabi din don na pang professional lang yon at matagal nila prinaktis. and yes i watch showtime too.
DeleteAnon 3:46 si Allan K po yun.
DeleteMahirap din kasi sa mga bata ngayon, di na madaling mapasunod. 100x mo talaga dapat silang tutukan. :(
DeleteEh ang kabataan kasi ngayon kapag pinagsabihan mo yung kabaligtaran ang gagawin. Eh di hwag ng pagsayawin si Paolo.
DeleteThe show has a disclaimer saying not to do it at home. At all times, fanaticism should be accompanied by responsibility.
ReplyDeletepambihira wawa naman yung bata..bat ba iniwan yung bata at di isinama s apakikipanood sa kapitbahay
ReplyDeleteSinabi na ni allan k after paolos performance na huwag gayahin.
ReplyDeleteOMG..tsk tsk....ilang beses nila ni-reremind na tamang professional lamang ang gumagawa..wag gagayahin !!! hindi lang isang araw practice ni paolo yan.monthsss nyang prinaractice yan !! tsk tsk RIP !!
ReplyDeleteRest in Peace. Nakakalungkot.
ReplyDeleteMay extensive warning pa si Paolo B na wag gagayahin, so sa mga bashers dyan, don't even dare pin this on him.
ReplyDeleteSinabi ni Allan K huwag gagayahin yun kasi pawang professional lng gumagawa nun
ReplyDeletebakit sobra akong nalungkot? he was just having fun and then... :((
ReplyDeleteNilalagay din kasi sa tamang lugar ang fun kahit bata yan or adult.
DeleteRIP :(
ReplyDeleteang dapat sisihin dito yung mga magulang o guardian ng bata at hindi sa EB or kay Paolo.
ReplyDeleteGrabe naman, di naman nagkulang EB sa mga paalala that time. Sad talaga...
ReplyDeleteHuwag sisihin si Paolo. They've given ample warnings na these are only done by professionals and there was an after-show interview where Paolo said that they practiced for this. And palaging nababanggit sa Kalyeserye na buwan nang nagppractice sila Paolo. Alam pala ng mga magulang na ginagaya ang sayaw, dapat ginabayan nila anak nila. And bakit nyo iniwang mag-isa ang anak nyo? That was irresponsible of the parents.
ReplyDeleteMay sisihan bang naganap?
DeleteHindi din naman tama sisihin ang parents. Never ka ba naiwan mag isa sa bahay nung 5th grade ka, of course dapat hindi lalampas ng 2 hours. Meron na siyang pagiisip siguro hindi niya alam na delikado pala yun. Sometimes pros make it seem so easy kaya kahit may disclaimer ginawa niya parin. Unfair lang na sisihin ang mom niya kasi hindi naman niya pinagawa niya sa anak niya. Kahit naman hindi siya nasa bahay niya baka gawin din niya kasi nacurious siya.
DeleteRIP. Responsible parenting pls... he was too young to be left alone in the house and the show is rated PG.
ReplyDeleteyung pamilya naman niya hinayaan lang siya...hindi man lang sinabihan
ReplyDeleteMay Warning na nga si Allan K. After the buwis buhay performance na PAWANG PROPESYONAL LANG ANG GUMAGAWA NIYAN. RIP pren. Mga kabataan ksi ngaun pagsbhan m waley pren
ReplyDeleteAh man... Very saddening! But EB keeps reminding their viewers to not do what they do... "Pawang mga professional po Ang gumagawa nyan," To be exact. RIP :(
ReplyDeleteMagulang ang may kasalanan bakit nila iniwan sa bahay instead sinama sa panonood nila! Mga pabayang magulang! Di man lang iniwanan ng matandang mag babantay sa anak!
ReplyDeletesige sisishin mo pa nanay di mo nga alam kung yung nanay kasama ba sa nakinood sa kapitbahay or nagtratrabaho at naghahanap ng makakain dahil iniwan sila ng tatay.
DeleteOo nga eh. Baka naman kulang sa pambayad sa ticket. But still, dapat yung bata na lang ang sinama tas nagpaiwan na lang yung isang adult.
DeleteSa kapitbahay lang nakinood hindi sa arena
DeleteHindi naman na kasalanan ni Paolo to. The parents/his guardians should've been more attentive. Iniwan mag-isa sa bahay. Nakita na pawis na bumibili ng ice water hindi tiningnan? Goodness. Dapat talaga maycriteria ang pag-aanak, para lang botante at mga nag-aapply sa trabaho.
ReplyDeleteHala! Rest In Peace.
ReplyDeleteSabi nga sa EB, WAG GAGAYAHIN KASI PAWANG PROPESYONAL LANG GUMAGAWA.
Sana pinaalala din ng mga magulang nya na huwag gayahin... kahit anong paalala ng EB, hindi talaga mapigil yung iba... dapat reinforce din dapat ng mga nakakatanda. Nakaka sad talaga ito... may he rest in peace.
ReplyDeleteNapanood ko nung sinabing huwag na huwag gagayahin. Naku.
ReplyDeleteMarami na namang kurimaw ang sasamantalahin ang pangyayaring ito,sisisihin ang eb,si paolo ...tsk.tsk RIP ...
ReplyDeletepag sinisi Eb or si Paolo kababawan nayun.
DeleteOh my. Tragic.
ReplyDeleteAllan K reminded na wag gagayahin after nung performance ni Paolo. And I think the parents should've urged the child na sumama na lang manuod sa kanila sa kapitbahay kesa naman sa ganyan
ReplyDeleteThis is just sad. I hope Paolo visits the wake para mabawasan kahit paano ang lungkot ng pamilya. Sana din mga magulang laging bantayan ang mga anak na huwag gagayahin lahat ng mga nakikita sa tv
ReplyDeletecondolence toyour family.
ReplyDeleteRIP at sna mging lesson learned sa ibang tao. We can idolize pero pls wag na gayahin lalo na kung buwis buhay.
ReplyDeleteEB is not responsible for this dahil as far as i can remember, hindi naman nila nkalimutang ipaalala na huwag gayahin ang steps dahil iyo ay pabh propesyonal lamang
ReplyDeleteDapat hindi na lang nila ginawa, dahil Aldub naman talaga ang main attraction nila. Hay naku nagpapasikat pa ang iba diyan kaya ayan na may nangyari masama.
DeleteSpeculations lang ang cause of death.
ReplyDeleteBakit hindi na lang isinama ng magulang? Inuna pa talagang manood ng Aldub. Parents be responsible.
ReplyDeleteEB had a disclaimer na wag gayahin ang performance ni Paolo dahil pawang professional lamang ang gumagawa nito, Wag na rin natin sana sisihin ang magulang or kung sinuman. Wala na tayo magagawa. Patay na ang bata. For sure, ramdam nila sa sarili nila ang pagsisisisi kung sa palagay nila ay napabayaan nila yung bata. There's no point na usigin natin ang mga magulang dahil di natin sila kilala ng personal para maging mapanghusga agad tayo. Wala rin tayo sa aktwal na pangyayari para mag-dive into conclusion. Ipagdasal na lang natin ang bata at ang pamilya dahil di masarap mawalan ng mahal sa buhay. Again, sana maging warning ito sa mga matatanda na maging mapangmatyag sa ikinikilos ng mga bata at gabayan sila lagi.
ReplyDeleteKasalanan ng magulang yan. Nagpapaalala lagi ang EB (kahit ibang shows) na huwag gagayahin ang dangerous stunts. Kulang sa dagdag paalala at gabay ang magulang nito.
