Suddenly, one of the drummer’s straps broke and his drum hurtled into a guest who was filming the event on her smartphone.
The footage shows the drum flying straight into the woman who was later named as Nazire Karaca.
Ms Karaca later said: ‘I think the phone protected me. I was holding the phone and the drum bounced off and hit my legs.
‘If it wasn’t for the phone, the drum would have hit me in the face. I didn’t understand how it happened. We were all shocked.’
