Marten Hørger DJed After Breaking His Foot Chasing a Pizza Delivery Guy

Some DJs drop bangers. Meanwhile, Marten Hørger dropped everything to save a pizza.

The Beatport chart-topping DJ and producer recently revealed that he broke his foot, not jumping behind the decks or crowd-surfing, but chasing down a pizza delivery guy. According to the "hangry" Hørger, the employee was about to walk into the wrong hotel, so he sprinted to intercept him and ultimately paid the price by fracturing foot.

The silver lining? "Yes, I saved the pizza," he wrote in an Instagram post, proudly sharing the evidence in the final slide of a carousel. The irony? The slogan on the pizza box was: "Your slice of ambition is served."

Despite the injury, Hørger isn't pumping the brakes. Cast-clad and crutch-assisted, he headed straight from the emergency room to his DJ set that night. Maybe someone told him to "break a leg" before the show—if so, mission partially accomplished.

"I'll just have to wear this cast for a few weeks," Hørger added, noting that doctors gave him the green light to keep traveling and performing.

It's not the first time electronic dance music has seen an artist soldier through broken bones. PEEKABOO DJed with one arm after breaking his shoulder back in 2021 and just a few months later, Hannah Wants broke her leg in a scooter accident on the island of Ibiza.

Hørger's tale, however, stands out for its relatability. After all, who among us hasn’t risked it all for a good pizza?
