THE mum of a man who fell from a stand at Ibrox during Harry Styles' gig on Saturday says it's a "miracle" he survived.
Dylan Wood was rushed to hospital and put on life support after plummeting from the Club Deck of the stadium into the stand below towards the end of the show.
The 20-year-old from East Kilbride escaped the horror plunge with just two black eyes, bruising and concussion after losing his balance and falling over a barrier onto seats, the Daily Record reports.
The electrical engineer, who had been enjoying a work night out in a VIP box, was rushed to Queen Elizabeth University Hospital and taken to the high dependency unit after being knocked unconscious.
Dylan's mum Marion Hawkins told the Daily Record: "We didn't know what injuries he had so he was put on a ventilator to keep him stable.
"It was touch and go that night but the scans came back all clear and he has no broken bones.
"It's a complete miracle he's still here, walking away with just cuts and scrapes."

She continued: "Dylan was crying on the phone to me today, I think it's just hitting home for him how serious it was and how close he got to not being here.
"I’m glad he never landed on anyone – he could have killed someone.
"His boss and workmates have been checking in on him.
"Everyone got a huge fright."

Marion told the Daily Record that Dylan can't remember exactly what happened as it all happened so fast.
She said: "Dylan told me he was leaning up against the bannister in the VIP box and remembered thinking it was quite low down.
"He can't remember exactly, it's a bit of a blur, but he thinks he went to lean against it, misjudged it and fell back.
"It all just happened so quickly.
"He was knocked out and remembers coming to and getting a fright as people were grabbing at him.
"Paramedics were called and they got him out of there and worked on him in the ambulance before taking him to hospital.
"I just panicked when I got the call and drove straight there.
"But he's doing good now and I hope to get him home today, I need him home."
A Police Scotland spokesperson said: "Officers were made aware of a man falling from a club deck at a premises on Edmiston Drive, Glasgow at around 10.15pm on Saturday, June 11, 2022.
"There were no suspicious circumstances and the man was seen to by medical staff."
