No one knows what compels certain people to hurl themselves into their peers upon hearing chugging power chords, but scientists have many theories: Phases of the moon, overactive thetans, excessive alcohol consumption (pfft, whatever, egghead!).
Though the cause of the moshing compulsion is unknown, one thing is certain: wherever there is loud, aggressive music there will be these noble crusaders, ignominiously hurling themselves into the breach without regard for their well-being, or the safety of others. Oh wait, another thing is certain: there will be hilarious GIFs of these people for us to admire. Check out our favourites above. Share yours with us in the comments!
