I believe in Karma. I’m old enough to know now that now. One day you will fall and be in such severe pain that you will beg GOD, dolphins or Jesus himself to stop the pain. And it wont come. Remember what I said. It will happen, it’s just a matter of when..
By the way, Ms Sanders broke 5 ribs and punctured her lung. She almost died. Karma will come to you soon enough…
Dear Anonymous:
So you’re old enough to believe in Karma. I’m glad to hear you made it to high school. Please write back if you make it to college.
After CW Philly, she was at NBC 17 in Raleigh Durham, where she won a “2006 Couldn’t Do It Without You Award.” She’s not at that network now, though. It’s like she, ah, fell off the face of the earth…
I don’t believe in god, or karma. When i heard about this i laughed. I know im young, && i dont know whats going to happen to me in the future, but i think that what i know right now, may be true.
She is still living in Raleigh… for now.
I wonder if Ms. Sander looks back on this and laughs. I know what happened to her sucked hardcore, but I still couldn’t help but to laugh–especially at the stellar support of her news team. “Bad Day at Good Day, Atlanta” indeed. And what the heck were they doing putting that platform so high anyway?
Also, I disagree with Anonymous. It’s not quite right to judge you on how your presented this story. I appreciated that this site was here to let me know who she was and that she made it out ok.
How is it that I am just finding out about this? I GREW UP there as well as worked at the winery for 5 years…!?!?!?!? That must have been under the old winemaker. They stopped doing any grape-stomping years ago – I guess people were too weak-stomached to mush around in fresh fruit? Or maybe they just didn’t want to take on the liability of people doing dumb stuff like that… and BTW – the stage was probably set up by the NEWS company, and it would have been so hihg so that they coul hget a good shot of the winery in the background. Where they are standing is actually a good 50′ below the elevation of the winery…
and even more comical? they installed this statue in front of the winery just a few years after this incident – do you think it rubs Sander the wrong way???
whoops, here’s the statue

Cool! A Legend of the Grape Lady statue! lol
Wow, this is the most amazing video I’ve ver seen. She got what was coming to her because she tried to cheat.
I’m being her for Halloween this year.
I think you guys are the most horrible people I have ever met in my life. I personally know Melissa and she is one of the nicest and caring people I have ever met. She never talks about it because it hurt her so much inside. You know, that day she was severely hurt. She broke many ribs. And through all the pain, she got up and continued her broadcast. Afterwards, she was immediately taken to the hospital.
I can’t believe how selfish people can be, thinking that other peoples’ pain is funny. This not only hurt her, but it hurt me too. It hurts me to know there are actually people out there like you guys.
Sincerely,
Someone who actually cares about other people
You are a complete jackass. Didn’t this story happen in the 1990′s? Get a life and stop printing this story. She is a greate person and doesn’t need this CRAP!!!!!!
The music video is better:

This video is funny on so many levels. hahahahaa. First because of her personality flaws and getting pwnt while trying to cheat. 2nd, most obviously, is the hilarious sounds she makes. Like a bloodhound bayin away at a treed a coon. 3rd well, is because she is on the verge of being obese, and obese people are always funny. She surely left a crater in the earth. 4th is the reaction of the other woman stomping, just standing there for so long like deer in the headlights, and the newscasters reaction back at the station, and how the black woman has to try so hard to refrain from laughing…. hahahahahah. What a lame fattass cheater. The goddess of the vineyard punishing her bit was on point, lol, true story.
wow is that real?
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA I laughed myself to sleep
So pleased that she was ok despite her injuries , after having just seen the video on youtube I just wanted to make sure she was not disabled in any way.
I heard her lung was not punctured but she got the wind knocked out of her… and she was trying to cheat and she was going to lose anyways… so if you really think about it… the moral of the story is that cheaters fall off a barrel of grapes and make sounds like augh augh augh augh AAUUUUGH!! Ostop Ostop… I can’t breathe ugh ugh… So I mean think about it. If she would’ve played fair like the rest of us. And the fact that she is alright now is good too.
Dude….One of the funniest vids I’ve ever seen.
The video of her falling was unbelieveble, but the music video is the funniest.
Oh… my… God… you people are so freakin funny, I almost broke four ribs laughing. “The moral of thr story is that cheaters fall off a barrel of grapes…” HAHAHAHA!!!! I can hardly type!! The internet is GREAT! (I do feel bad for her, but I can’t stop LAUGHING!)
Hey, this is one of those things that happen to you and you either a) let it torture you for the rest of your life or b) enjoy the b-celebrity fame, jump on the talk show circuit and print up t-shirts. I hope this woman chooses B; much better karma. Also, goodness knows I’d cough up $20 for an authentic grape-lady t-shirt any day.
lol i think shes hurt well no shit
haha! that is halrious!!! but seriously how did she fall? like duh she fell off of the platform but she was stomping grapes…..haha
