Usually when contestants win big on the hit game show “The Price is Right,” they take to wildly celebrating their luck by hooting and hollering around. And while a particular winner did just that, he may have done it a tad too hard.

After a contestant named Henry hit the big time by winning a trip to Hawaii, he started jumping and fist pumping the air with joy, only to dislocate his shoulder, an Instagram of the video shows.

“He won a trip to Hawaii and the ER,” The Price is Right said in the caption of the video.

When Henry returned to the stage later in the show, his injured shoulder stopped him from spinning the big wheel. Luckily, his wife Alice stepped in and saved the day.

“Don’t hurt yourself,” host Drew Carey joked to the excited woman after she spun and was celebrating.

The show also noted that Henry is all healed from his playful injury in an update on Instagram.
