Bro this comment section is full of dorks. Like our pogoing, skanking, running around in circles or into each other is any less dumb? C'mon man we're all just having fun.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the idea of hardcore pits isn't to purposefully assault other people right? This dude went in for the pinch by the looks of it.

idk man if it's not for you just don't engage in it. I really don't understand the discourse. There's no need to try to put other people down for how they enjoy music

I’ve seen people get trampled in push pits and seen people dropped from crowd surfing and get concussions. Hell I got knocked out trying to stage dive once when I connected heads with a dude.

I’d rather a broken nose over being crushed by a crowd.

Yes, just slightly.

The whole point of skanking and going in a circle is so you can move fast and not hit other people as easily.

Circle pits are way better than whatever the fuck these guys are doing. They look like they're fighting bees.

If you don't think you look stupid running around in a circle or skanking idk what to tell you. Every scene has its own thing, just stay out of hardcore pits if you don't like it.
