Wall of Death
A documentation about the phenomenon called “Wall of Death”. A wall of death is an event that happens at heavy metal gigs. Basically, during a show the crowd will split up into a big circle or into two rows with a gap of approximately 10 meters in between. Then, after a command by the singer or spontaneously, the people on both sides run against each other, sometimes resulting in serious injury.
