Metallica Crew Members Catch Fire!?

I literally mean this. Yesterday Metallica was in Mexico City and all this was part of their show. They were playing legendary song 'Enter Sandman' and they were launching flares. The flares failed so two of the crew members went to check what happened and then they both ran on stage in flames. Sounds pretty believable doesn't it? No worries though, it was just an act for their performance. I would have been freaking seeing two men on fire. They were even put on stretchers! This 'stunt' was part of their concert movie that will be coming out soon. Wow, they truly want to amaze the audience! James Hetfield later said at a press conference "the stage set and the dangerous elements of that – staying alive." Adding to that bassist Robert Trujillo said, "It’s very dangerous – we’ve got stuff flying every which way."

This seems to have been an awesome show. Well, now that I know that the men on fire was staged. If it wasn't, I wouldn't be saying this. Anyways, you go Metallica! I am really looking forward to see all those 'Cunning Stunts' in the concert movie. This was just one, I positive that they have more intense ones.  Watch the members catch on "fire."
