Slipknot's CRAZIEST Moments Caught on Tape

[@thatonemisfit172]

4:06 if you we're wondering why corey was pissed at sid, it was cuz they had cameras on their masks during that show and sid jumped into the crowd at one point and lost it

[@picax8398]

And he told sid before the show not to go into the crowd.

[@ForestOfTheRetro]

⁠@@picax8398 Not only that, but they were recording a DVD with those cameras, and it was supposed to include footage of all 9 members with their respective cameras, so yeah it’s something to be really pissed about lmao. Thankfully a fan recovered the camera and gave it to the band after they finished the show and we got some really awesome footage of the crowd seen on the My Plague video

[@urielandbb9725]

Why couldn’t he jump into the crowd is that a Nono for some reason

[@picax8398]

@urielandbb9725 The cameras they were wearing were super expensive and rented. Sid was apparently told before the show to not get into the crowd, but he still did.

[@m00nsickn3ssx6]

​@@urielandbb9725they needed to use those recordings for a DVD they were doing, so if sid lost it, or somebody in the crowd snatched the camera off him, well, those recordings would be lost

[@saylosrelyks8645]

Reason why Corey and Sid got into a fight and started yelling was because they were filming the Disasterpieces live dvd with POV Camera shots with expensive cameras given to them by Roadrunner and they told Sid specifically NOT to crowd surf because of the camera and he did it anyway and lost the camera which is why Corey was livid at him, luckily a fan returned it after the show.

[@thnkufrthvenom_]

and they laughed about the whole thing about a month later so it's all good

[@christianalmli9085]

I mean that yes, but also Corey was a raging alcoholic lmao. The two of them nearly got into a fist fight only a few years back as well, like those two have a serious sibling-like relationship.

[@Phantomxxss]

6:32 if you’re wondering, Sid broke both of his heels during one show after he jumped and fell on the stage. He finished the whole set in a chair and was wheeled out during the rest of the tour I believe

[@tylerwatts3347]

Yep, he broke it when they were playing disasterpiece, he went to jump off the platform above joey

[@tylerwatts3347]

kzbin.info/www/bejne/pqTCfXd4q8x5d8k

[@atomicr4y472]

Iirc, the reason that Corey thinks he fainted, he doesn't know, is because between the mask, the jumpsuit, and the lights it's already super hot. Factor that they were in Dallas that night and it was extra hot. Then the pyro was eating up all of the oxygen because it was fueled by propane, he does a bunch of screaming, and it was a recipe for disaster. He blacked out and that was that.

[@kingscar2001]

i feel like Craig retired tbh

[@saadesigner07]

Don't blame him. So many years of touring. Not everybody wants to grind until they die. Good for him.

[@rickjazzyroll]

Honestly I'm a new slipknot fan but I love the energy in their music

[@marioguerrero7624]

I went to see Slipknot live when I was 14 (2010) and both Clown and Sid come down from the stage where giving out high fives and interacting with fans as one of the songs was playing. I got to high five clown and it was awesome.

[@jasonhutcherson6224]

That's Fucking awesome. If or when your able you should go to another Slipknot concert. Pay extra to meet band just to tell Corey that story. I'm betting he'd love that! And he might get a little emotional because his Love for Clown was like a brother. He's been continuing touring because Clown would tell him to. And Loosing Joey didn't help especially since they didn't get to talk and make up. Which I know they would have liked to. Just a idea. I really think Corey would appreciate it.

[@GregJonson]

I saw Slipknot live for the first time last week. I had to give up my front position three songs in because it turns out a Slipknot moshpit is basically an all-encompassing human meat grinder and I nearly lost my glasses.

[@gustavohp3439]

[@Senne_Claes]

[@fnaf3d83]

I was there too And It was fucking incredible

[@syntezjaofficial4240]

To see all crazy Slipknot moments we need at least 3 hours of videos

[@gageroberts5513]

Some people think it's still Craig, just in a new mask. I thought the same about Chris. Let's face it. Also Corey fainted it was from all those things you said. It's hot AF on that stage with the fire etc. The band essentially had taken over the world with two albums in about 3 or 4 years. They really had no intentions of staying together forever.

[@justinmarti3108]

So you gotta think, at the point 4:06 in the video, Corey Vs. Sid, the band was towards peak/ or on their way to peak anger and rage towards everything and everyone. They were in the darkest places in their minds and everyday was a battle to be able to keep from either hurting themselves or others until they could let loose on stage. That and the multitude or drinking/drugs/and depression didn’t help either.

[@justinmarti3108]

Gifts are cool

[@Nichaos999]

[@kassyh117]

I was at a Slipknot concert last night I just have no word... What I can say is that it's gonna be one of the greatest memories of my life, no doubt about that I had the privilege to live the JTFU, it was absolutely insane, I can't even describe this feeling I scratched my voice on People = Shit and cried on Snuff, with thousands of people I had never met, but for 2 hours we felt so close to each others So if you have the chance to see them, do not hesitate, do it !! I promise it's gonna worth it

[@aaroncooperjr.-jk7qk]

Alex you said what band had the most beef with each other in the same band was Mayhem a norwegian black metal band and the beef was with Euronymous and Varg Vikernes, Varg Vikernes stab Euronymous to death, and that’s not all the whole band had some problems it was crazy, if you want to get a better understanding of this just watch this movie about them called- Lords of Chaos it’s a crazy movie man but it be a good movie for the channel one day, and Alex love your videos as always man keep up the great work.

[@sandracunningham8908]

You had asked about toxic relationship bands ... I would say perhaps Guns N Roses. I had not seen half this list! Thank you and have a Dope Ass Day Alex ❤

[@Thefashiongoddessnyc]

Slipknot means the world to me…my very first concert in 2016 Clown came up 26 rows cuz he saw me head banging standing and holding on to my wheelchair and embraced me in the warmest and sweatiest hug..I was in shock and everyone was screaming and crying around us..Then I met Corey during one of his book signing tours and he was late to a stone sour gig cuz the manager told him I was wheelchair dependent but coming to see him..nobody better never say anything bad about Slipknot…

[@leonidasneves7972]

Talking about Slipknot, u should react to some of their most UNDERRATED songs, like: The Blister Exists, Three Nil

[@TaraRyze]

I’ve seen Slipknot a few times…met Corey too! He was really chill, he had long frizzy rainbow hair at the time lol, but the first time I saw them, my bf and I made sure to be right up front against the barrier…huuuuge mistake…the minute they came on stage everyone went insane and pushed forward and I’m only 5’3” so I literally got completely crushed and could not breathe…needless to say we immediately had the guards help us out! Next time we saw them was at an arena and we sat in the back lol

[@The_real_JulieKelsea]

You’re concert story was just like mine. I’m 5”1 and was 103 lbs. we were at Marilyn Manson on New Year’s Eve in Las Vegas! I couldn’t breathe and was crushed against the railing! I begged security for a drink of his water. He gave me a sip. I passed out. Great concert though!

[@MunkeeFWRrng]

Plenty of bands have had infighting. As you said, it’s kind of expected. Close quarters, lots of high stress situations, exhaustion, differences of opinion, and so on and so forth and you tend to end up with a recipe for arguments. What makes or breaks the band is how they handle those arguments. An example of a band that has had publicly known issues off the top of my head would be Metallica during the time where Jason Newsted was the bassist. Main issue was how Kirk, Lars and James did not take the proper time to grieve and mourn for Cliff, the bassist on their first three albums who died tragically in a bus accident, and it lead to a lot of negative reactions to Jason joining the band. Also keep in mind this is where James became a full fledged raging alcoholic. So yeah… not so fun times for Jason being the new guy/odd man out.

[@devildog3246]

Craig's wife is going through serious health issues. He retired to be with her. Gonna miss Craig and prayers for his family. 🙏🤘😢🤘

[@jameskirkbydrums]

i witnessed joeys kit move during the disasterpeices gig and tour, it was IMMENSE!!!

[@Xeroforte]

Sid was hobbling over to his DJ setup because he jumped from high up and broke his fall wrong. Theres footage of it happening, i dont know why it isnt in the video, but even then it isnt that hard to follow along.

[@stormjensen469]

Saw Slipknot live yesterday, second time seeing them and first time in the pit. It was fucking killer!🤘🏽

[@Werewolf914]

Mayhem definitely had more Turmoil in the band then maybe anyone else so much that Varg who at the time wasn't a Member anymore he was in Burzum at the time but he stabbed Euronymous (Guitar player) to Death, before that Death the Vocalist killed himself and then I believe it was Euronymous who took a picture and then the picture of his body was made into the album cover. Euronymous in general was extremely psychotic.

[@delix787]

4:15 so that’s how he treats his family band. 🌚

[@k4m1l83]

My mind doesn't comprehend that you still didn't react to whole slipknot self titled album.

[@Yawlier8]

Seen Slipknot seven times and every single gig where I've been i got some bruises. Some of them are little, one healed two months 😅 I got hitted by a crowd, badly. Laying on top of the people and someone stepped on my leg. Still worth every single moment! Mostly it's moshpits that hit me, my friend call me moshpitmagnet, even though I've not been there by myself.

[@bendertschouten4085]

Just came back from graspop begium, watched Slipknot from a distance but was awesome! Couldnt be at the front cause I broke a rib at In Flames earlyer that day... Day after went to the hospital for fotos and axam, nothing too bad except for the broken rib. I was just over the moon I made it back in time for Lorna shore :D was gone for just 2 hours max and the crowd was super supportive because of my injury so they gave me a good spot and helped out with incoming crowdsurfers xD I can talk about this all day but that being said my favorite Slipknot moment was att the front of the crowd when they played at graspop in (i believe) 2019! Complete battlefield and my favorite Live moment in my fortunate big history with live performances! And dispite the quick hospital break and pain in my chest; grasspop days are the best days of the year!

[@nexus_metal_covers9360]

Alex! You gotta watch slipknots "Your nightmares our dreams". If you wanna see slipknot in their prime, that's the video to watch. I will warn you though, if you have a weak stomach, be careful! Everything from puking to lighting themselves on fire! They were bonkers!

[@ThoughtPolice1984]

My buddy and I went to see slipknot at a pretty small venue years ago. During their set we see fans jumping off the 2nd story balcony, landing on other unsuspecting fans. My gaze shifts to directly above me and i see a security guard tackle a dude about to jump on top of me. At this moment i notice the band has stopped playing so i turn to the stage and see that this is the JTFU moment and only 3 people are standing. Me, my buddy and an extremely overweight guy who was struggling to squat. Corey points directly at me and screams "I SAID GET THE UCK DOWN!!!!" which i did very quickly lol. Concert went on, everyone jumped and i was left with a pretty cool memory.

[@augiemesa9429]

On Corey vs Sid, bands are like relationships. I've been in a few bands. All males. It's like having a bunch of boyfriends. Haha. Seeing that interaction between them doesn't make me flinch. I've never had a dispute that bad but I play in a local band while Slipknot was riding on the success of their first album at that time. Way more pressure. I get a kick out of that and remember how small time I am and try to not worry about the hiccups.

Metallica in the early years had a lot of trouble due to James alcohol problems (maybe addiction not sure). I think the "Some kind of Monster" documentary showed deep details about it.

Yeah especially during the Jason years. Lots of issues came from Cliff’s death and how it negatively impacted the other guys.

[@darthpyhris2000]

The most toxic band was the Iowa era Slipknot. Everyone hated and fought each other almost daily. Makes for great heavy metal, but that level of animosity is toxic. I also believe that's why Craig left. Most of Slipknot has healed from those early days and the passing of their brothers(Paul and Joey) except for Craig. He still hates everyone in Slipknot, and for Slipknot 2023, that's not ok, unfortunately.
