For goodness’ sake, someone get out there and help Domo-kun!
The mascot appeared at an NHK Trophy skating competition in Nagano, even taking to the ice in a special Domo-kun on Ice event.
This isn’t Domo-kun’s first time on the ice. As you can see in this clip, the character is quite a good skater.
Or you can see some of Domo-kun’s moves in the background of the above clip. But things took a spill for the worse.

Don’t just stand there you idiots!
Do something!
Thankfully, Japanese Olympic champion Yuzuru Hanyu was on hand to save Domo-kun before things got even more serious.
Forget breaking the 300-point mark, this is the most important thing Hanyu did at this competition.
