Rage rooms let participants smash items to relieve stress

Experiences popping up around the world

A select group of people will be able to destroy scrap cars in the U.K. as a form of “destruction therapy” all thanks to a new contest.

Scrap Car Comparison, an online service that helps people find the best cash offerings for their scrap or salvage vehicle, is launching a Rage Yard experience that will help contestants release their anger. The event is set to take place in the fields of Northamptonshire and will be partnered with tank-driving experience company Tanks-alot.

“The year 2020 has been one of the absolute worst in living memory, and we wanted to be able to offer customers a way to release all the stress that this year has brought into their lives. We thought as the year draws to a close, what better way to unleash all your 2020 angst than by taking it out on scrap cars,” said Scrap Car Comparison’s Managing Director Dan Gick in a statement sent to Fox News.

“The cars are heading to the scrap heap anyway, so after the year we’ve all had, it made sense to offer this exhilarating experience that should help people let go of their built-up frustrations from 2020 and in turn, feel a bit more calm and serene as we enter the new year,” he added. 

At the Rage Yard experience, participants will be allowed to shoot, set off explosives and drive a 61.7-ton armored tank over scrap cars that have the year 2020 spray-painted on.

This unconventional stress relief method Scrap Yard Comparison has received a stamp of approval from Chartered Psychologist Dr. Samia Latif.

“Certain individuals find that relieving tension in an overt physical manner is much more therapeutic and a form of stress relief that works better for them,” Latif shared in a statement. “This is known as ‘Destruction Therapy’ and it does allow people to relieve stress within a controlled environment.”
