SUMMARY

“I believe that I’m one of the few lucky people on earth that do what they want to do,” – Ken Fox

Shortlisted for the best documentary in 2012 Vimeo Awards. The Wall Of Death follows the last remaining traditional family of daredevil wall riders, The Ken Fox Troupe, who continue to travel Europe and the British Isles bringing a 100 year tradition to audiences young and old. Benedict Campbell first saw the show as a small boy and the film which he wanted to make for some time, beautifully captures the emotion and a connection to the riders that is contagious.
