This bloke met Linkin Park’s Chester Bennington while covered in his own shit

Ever met your hero while covered in your own shit? This bloke has.

Ever met your hero while covered in your own shit? This bloke has.

A listener sent Jay and Dunc a yarn that was posted to the Facebook page for the British-created rock festival Download Festival, and the story absolutely sent us.

The story goes, this bloke was at the festival back in 2007 and was about nine or ten metres away from the stage when his favourite band Linkin Park were set to perform. The only problem was, the unnamed bloke really needed to shit. 

So, he and his mate made a plan to lift him up to the crowd so he could bodysurf his way to the loo, drop the kids off to the pool, and then head back to find his mate in the mosh.

“Well, let's just say things didn't go to plan,” the Facebook post read.

“The moment I put my foot in my friend's cradled hands to launch myself forward to freedom, it happened. 

“I shat the biggest shit that I've ever shat. 

“It felt like I'd just passed King Kong's thumb as I was being passed over people. I could just feel this thing being massaged and manipulated by so many innocent hands.”

At about this moment, Chester Bennington took the stage and the bloke found himself getting closer and closer to his hero.

He ended up accidentally knocking Chester’s microphone out of his hand and briefly holding his hand for a moment - all while covered in his whole shit.

What a yarn.
