Motorcycle Stuntwoman Talks About Her Career of Riding Around the Wall of Death on a Nightly Basis

Great Big Story traveled to the British town of Ipswich in Suffolk to speak with Kerri Cameron, a rider in the the locally famous Ken Fox Troupe, who performs stunts to amazed crowds while riding a motorcycle around a circular wall known as the “Wall of Death“. Cameron had found her career after getting laid off from the horse farm where she was working.

What is the Wall of Death? It’s a nearly vertical, circle-shaped track that most riders would consider insane. Before she was a Wall of Death rider, Cameron rode horses for a living. Today, she performs dangerous stunts with grace and keeps an adrenalin-pumping tradition alive.
