How did Nick Jonas get hurt?

In the case of Nick Jonas, he was one of the brothers that received medical attention after their Olympics spoof.

The 28-year-old musician, along with his brothers, Kevin and Joe, went on the Olympic Dream show and were coached by members of Team USA to compete in Olympic-style sports against one another.

The sports included gymnastics, hurdles and BMX.

Jonas took two bumps on the show; however, the major mishap occurred during the show's final competition, the BMX race.

Jonas hit a curve and went down hard, causing both of his brothers to collide with him and fall as well.

However, it was clear as he went to get up that this wasn't just a normal fall. 

"F***ed up my back," the 28-year-old singer said, kneeling on the ground in pain.

As his brothers asked him several times if he was OK, Jonas replied, "Yeah, I think my rib's f***ed up too."

An ambulance was then brought to the set as a grimacing Jonas was loaded inside.

The actual injury and taping took place back in May.

What did Nick Jonas say about his injury?

Jonas opened up to ET at the time about the accident, revealing the true extent of his injuries.

"Probably could have been a little worse, but all is good; I am recovering nicely."

Jonas explained what exactly caused his fall and the pile-up, saying: "Something just got caught, dirt on the bike and just tumbled.

"But again, I feel good, surprisingly, all things considered. I was back in my Voice chair right away, kind of said, 'Listen, I'm not going to let this slow me down.'"
