Steve Schneider, a pro wrestling student at PWX in Pittsburgh, was nearly killed when he was knocked down at Riot Fest in Chicago during System of a Down’s set. Schneider had attended with Matt Cross (Son of Havoc), Matt Knicks of Freelance and Mark Andrews of iMPACT! Wrestling. Schneider says he was knocked to the ground during the set and nearly trampled until the band stopped the concert so he could get help.
P”I fell over during System of a Down, then someone fell on top of me so I couldn’t breathe,” said Schneider. “Then once they got up, someone else fell on top of me. It was never ending. At one point I had someone on top of my back, and someone either sitting or standing on my head, pushing my face down into mud. I couldn’t breathe the entire time, but then any breath I could take I was close to inhaling muddy water. It was the scariest thing in my entire life cause I had no idea how long I’d be trapped for. Apparently System of a Down had to stop playing so paramedics could get me out, I was unconscious at that point so I have no memory of it. Both of my eyes are blood red from passing out due to lack of air and someone crushing my head and screaming for my life.”
Schneider wanted to personally thank System of a Down for helping to save his life. You can see some pics of his condition after the whole thing at the link; a video of it is below.
