Foals recall 'Late Night' video near death experience

Indie rockers Foals recently travelled to Romania to shoot the extremely-NSFW video for 'Late Night' and revealed that one of the scenes almost became a frightening reality.

The band worked with director Nabil, who has previously collaborated with Frank Ocean and Kanye West, and one of the segments tells the story of a man committing suicide, but Foals were shocked to discover that an on-set accident almost brought the tale to life:

"In the suicide scene the guy actually hung himself by mistake, which was pretty bonkers. We were watching it on the screens next door and it was really realistic, we thought he was doing an amazing job acting. Then he started clawing at the belt and went all limp. Nabil had his head in his hands and we all thought we had killed a Romanian dude."

Drummer Jack Bevan joked that the sex scenes may have also been real, adding: "There's sex. Possibly actual sex, nobody really knows. At first it wasn't, but who knows by the end? That was happening in the room next to us so we were about 10 feet away watching a couple who had never met one another sort of maybe having actual sex."
