You can’t tell who actually is jumping from the cliff into the lake below, but it’s probably the most intense picture from Neck Deep and State Champs’ world tour. Let’s be thankful no one got hurt.

Because a hang out with kangaroos wasn’t enough for him, Derek from State Champs also hung out with a bunch of deer while in Nagoya, Japan. Here he’s seen feeding them a cracker.

It might be a totally '70s thing to do, but waving around lighters—well now it's cellphones—is still a pretty sight at a concert.
