She tweeted at the time: "Well, I broke my back in two places and am getting surgery to put a meter rod in for support today.
"Send your support. When it rains it pours and I am definitely feeling the rain right now."
She was forced to undergo surgery and got a rod implant due to her injuries.
Adriana also revealed she found out she was pregnant when she was admitted to hospital for treatment.

"I'm not pregnant anymore because of the surgery."

Beneath the foam cubes was a rubber mat which did not make for a soft landing when players fell from the podium.
