02:22The Wall of Death is considered one of the most thrilling and exciting sports performances, combining daring and defiance in a dangerous situation that requires exceptional courage and riding skills.
Footage filmed in Casablanca on Sunday shows a motorcyclist riding at high speed along a circular wall, defying the laws of gravity as they move diagonally across the wall, relying on centrifugal force to maintain their balance. The audience can also be seen enjoying the performance.
“Today, some people call it the ‘Wall of Death’ instead of the ‘Wall of Safety’ so that their children are scared and never try it. As motorcyclists, it is completely safe and harmless. I was pregnant when I rode my motorcycle, and the other woman who learnt after me also did the same thing, her name was Naima, and she rode her bike on the Wall of Death without hesitation or fear. Praise be to God,” said Aziza Kenitria, the first Moroccan woman who rode on the Wall of Death, and a mother of a motorcyclist.
“When I ride a bike, I have no fear. When I was young, I knew the intricacies of the bike, I knew everything about it, and I'm not afraid of anything, and I've been like that all my life,” shared Abdul Qader Qalloush, one of the first riders of the Wall of Death.
This sport has its origins decades ago and has been linked to various cultures around the globe, where drivers push the limits of their abilities on motorcycles or small cars on a circular track with vertical walls known as the "Wall of Death".
Ali Ben El-Hussein Anjar, better known as Ali Belhassine, was the pioneer of adventure sports in Morocco and the first Moroccan to tame 'The Motor of Danger', which was previously restricted to Europeans. He has been etched in the popular memory of Morocco as the pioneer of The Wall of Death.
