Watch Shaquille O’Neal dive into a moshpit at Tomorrowland Festival

Predictably, he smashed it

There are many things you’d expect to find in the depths of a moshpit. From a lost shoe to a sweaty stranger begging to be picked up off the floor, basically anything goes. At this year’s Glastonbury, slowthai even sent his friend Loyle Carner into the melee mid-set.

One thing you wouldn’t expect to find, though, is NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal, all 7 ft 1 of him, opening up the circle.

Attending Tomorrowland Festival in Belgium this weekend, the legend was spotted all over the site causing chaos. From headbanging to Modestep to flattening a bunch of teenagers in a moshpit, he looks like he had the time of his life.

Predictably, plenty of footage has emerged of the incident, and has been posted all around the internet.

“There’s a few rules I go by,” one commenter said. “One of them is to never test Shaq in a mosh pit. EVER!”
