Chris Martin pauses Coldplay concert after spotting young boy being crushed in Sydney crowd
Chris Martin paused Coldplay's Sydney concert at Accor Stadium briefly after spotting a young boy in the crowd being crushed.
A video of the moment was shared on TikTok, showing the singer and father-of-two tenderly checking in on the kid before giving him the best seat in the house.
"You can sit right here, OK? You don't have to be squeezed," Martin told the boy during Wednesday night's show, pointing to a spot over the crowd control barriers.

The musician then asked the security team if they could "get some headphones for him" before turning his attention back to the boy.
"Then you don't have to be squished by all these adults is all," he explained to the youngster.
"You sit right there my little brother, OK. Better?
"Now let's get you ... do you want some coke or something? The drink, I mean," he said to laughs from the crowd.

"We'll take care of you man."
Once the little boy was in position, Martin carried on with the show, telling the audience "here we go" and running back up to the main section of the stage.
It's been an eventful run of shows for the UK band after the frontman fell through a trap door on stage in Melbourne on Sunday night.
The Fix You singer was walking backwards as he read out fans signs, with gasps ringing out around Marvel Stadium as he fell into the hole.
Martin told the crowd as he climbed out that it was "not planned" or part of the show.
"Thank you for catching me," he told a member of the crew who was standing under the stage.
