Kris Jenner Wasn't Tackled By Kim Kardashian's Security And Rushed To Hospital After All
In a trailer for the episode, Kris appeared to suffer a serious neck injury after being "tackled" to the ground by Kim's security team. But all wasn't quite as it seemed...
Last week, Keeping Up with the Kardashians dropped a sneak peek at an upcoming episode, revealing that Kris Jenner had been tackled to the ground by Kim's security team and rushed to hospital with a neck injury.
The minute-long clip was pretty dramatic, as a frantic Khloé called Kim to tell her they'd called 911 and she needed to come back to the house ASAP. To make matters worse, Kris could be heard crying in the background.
The teaser ended with Kim pulling up the surveillance footage on her phone and watching in shock.
So, when the episode aired on Sunday, people were desperate to know the full story and see the footage for themselves. But it turned out that there was one small detail missing from the trailer — the whole thing had been nothing more than an elaborate prank.
It turned out that Kim's family was getting increasingly fed up with the new security team she had hired after a spate of robberies in Hidden Hills.

Earlier this year, 2,000 letters were sent out to residents of Hidden Hills, warning them about a string of robberies. Talking to Kourtney in the latest episode of KUWTK, Kim revealed that they were taking extra precautions as a result, hiring three full-time security guards.
Kim and Kanye previously ramped up their security after Kim was robbed at gunpoint during Paris Fashion Week back in 2016.
"Do you ever have a problem getting into Kim's house?" Kris later said to Khloé. "Every time I go over there, they still don't know who I am."
When Khloé reminded her that they were just following protocol, Kris responded: "She has a Navy Seal team over there."
So, to get the point across to Kim that she wanted easier access to the house, Kris decided that the best way forward was to stage a prank because of course.
When Kim received the call from Khloé and watched the surveillance footage for herself, she saw what she thought was Kris getting tackled to the ground. But it turned out that it wasn't actually Kris — it was a body double.
Kim immediately rushed back to the house, where Kris laid out on a stretcher, neck brace and all.
But Khloé finally caved and told Kris to give in.
"The purpose of my prank was to say, we love that you have this security," Kris said. "But we would just love to have some clearance, so we can come in and out of your house."
