A new film by director duo Autobahn, aka London-based Pedro de la Fuente and James Worsley, tells the story of Lucius Zafalon, a daredevil motorcycle rider who takes on the perilous globe of death. Here, de la Fuente talks about his and Worsley's experiences of capturing the spectacle:

“Lucius risks his body in the pursuit of the perfect globe of death act. Through all the challenges and difficulties he has never ceased to focus on his art. It is what defines him and what he has lived for his whole life. 

“What makes a good globe of death act isn’t just how many motorcycles the team can fit inside the globe, but also the beauty of their riding lines. The synchronicity between the riders and the team’s particularities—such as riding in the dark—is what sets Lucius' team apart. For them, the globe of death is not just an act, it is their lives."
