Connor Ball can't feel leg still and fears of permanent damage after nasty Dancing on Ice fall

Dancing on Ice star Connor Ball says he fears he may have permanent damage to his leg after suffering a gruesome injury from a nasty fall he had on the ITV skating show. The bass player for The Vamps has said he still is in pain and worries he may never regain feeling to his one leg.

The 26-year-old sliced open his calf after his shoe's blade went into his leg, while he performed with his professional partner Alexandra Schauman earlier this year. The musician kept skating until the end of the song with his trousers ripped and leg bleeding, BirminghamLive reports.

When asked at the time if he was alright by Dancing on Ice host Phillip Schofield, he replied: "I don’t want to look what’s going on there right now… I’ll check after. The blade went into my leg, so I don’t know if something’s cut up."
