This weekend I had the hilarious pleasure of creating a pit cease in Abu Dhabi to attend the adrenalin-fuelled Monster Jam occasion at Etihad Enviornment.
It was nice, type of like a baseball sport – relaxed vibe, household pleasant, a lot of children, particularly younger boys.
Then there was whole mayhem because the autos engaged in gravity-defying assessments of velocity and talent … filth flying in all places.
From the second I stepped into the Monster Jam enviornment, I felt like I had been transported to an enormous toy field, besides the toys have been 12,000-pound vans they usually ran on gasoline as a substitute of batteries. The sound of revving engines and the scent of gasoline stuffed the air, and I couldn’t assist however really feel like I used to be in the course of a weird automotive apocalypse.
Raging motorheads will little question have been conversant in the line-up of flamboyantly painted autos. There was Grave Digger, the pickup-style Blue Thunder, the shark-shaped Megalodon and a number of other others – every one making even the Gulf’s greatest 4x4s look tiny compared.
The freestyle competitors was a sight to behold. The vans flew by the air like they’d wings, doing flips and twists that will make a gymnast jealous. The one factor lacking was the circus music and a few clowns juggling chainsaws.
