Fact #92978

While Slash and Steven Adler of Guns N'Roses are visiting the San Fernando Valley, Los Angeles, California, USA, home of Motley Crue bassist Nikki Sixx, their host is overcome by the combination of toxic yuletide liquors and chemicals they are partaking of. As Sixx's pallor becomes increasingly blue, Slash calls for an ambulance, then administers mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Paramedics are able to revive Sixx and take to him hospital where he recovers. Sixx later writes the song Kickstart My Heart, inspired by the incident.
