Watch FEVER 333’s Jason Butler perform on a moving Ferris wheel

FEVER 333 frontman Jason Aalon Butler has taken his performances to new, ahem, heights, by boarding a moving Ferris wheel at Rock im Park.

Last week FEVER 333 officially kicked off their next chapter as a band with their new line-up and a single, and it seems as though this fresh start has given frontman Jason Aalon Butler an extra shot of adrenaline.

At Germany’s Rock im Park mega-fest at the weekend, the singer – who pretty much never stays onstage anyway – boarded a moving Ferris wheel during Hunting Season, the closing song of FEVER’s nine-song set.

Taking to Instagram to share footage of the epic moment, Jason asked the Guinness World Records, “I told y'all stop playin wit me. Who do I need to talk to for one of them live performance records?” He also thanked Rock im Park “for the unintended piece of live production”. Ha!

As well as being a massive hit with fans, bands and performers online also enjoyed Jason’s latest performing feat, with Pierce The Veil’s Vic Fuentes enthusing, “Fuck yes J” in the comments. Meanwhile, Rise Against frontman Tim McIlrath commented a fire emoji, and the band Escuela Grind joked: “I ain’t using the full potential of my wireless mic apparently.”
