‘Trainwreck: The Astroworld Tragedy’ is in Netflix’s Top Three

DEGANZ member Jesse Dixon edited Netflix’s recently released documentary Trainwreck: The Astroworld Tragedy. Currently, it ranks third on Netflix’s global top 10 movies.

In 2021, hundreds of people were injured and ten were killed in a crowd crush during the headlining performance at Travis Scott’s Astroworld music festival in Houston, Texas. The film unpacks the logistical failures and the tragic consequences through exclusive interviews with survivors, paramedics and festival staff. Additionally, compiled footage from concertgoers’ phones brings viewers into the heart of the crowd, demonstrating just how extreme the crowd was on the day.

The film is the first of Netflix’s documentary anthology series exploring massive event disasters that made global headlines, created corporate scandals, and cost lives. Other topics covered later in the series include the infamous Poop Cruise and storming Area 51.

Congrats to Jesse and the rest of the team on Trainwreck: The Astroworld Tragedy’s success!
