The Slipknot DJ and keyboard player singed off his eyebrows and "melted" much of his skin, he said on Instagram. He also has serious burns to his face and arms and blistered his mouth. He added he isn't expecting to need surgery or skin grafts to deal with the wounds. However, he is unaware how he will wear the band's iconic face masks.
Speaking on Wednesday with Fox Digital News, Wilson cautioned: "Don’t f--k around with fire. It's going to win every time."
"My whole right arm is bandaged up, half of my left arm. My face is basically melted from nose down," he continued. "But the swelling's gone down, and they said the face is kind of amazing that it's regenerative, it happens real fast, seems to heal quickly."
While he said he's "had better days," he added, "but I'm alive, so I'm doing good."
