Video footage has captured the moment that world-famous heavy metal band Metallica was heard in Stapleford, as they took to the stage at Download Festival. The American heavy metal band headlined the first night of the annual rock festival at Donington Park, on the Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire and Leicestershire border, as the event celebrates its 20th year.
For the first time ever, the festival has been spread across four days - taking place from Thursday, June 8, to Sunday, June 11. Metallica headlined Thursday night - but it seems it wasn't just those with a ticket who got to experience the show.
In video footage captured by a Stapleford resident living more than 11 miles from the festival, rumblings of Metallica's music can be heard. According to residents in the area, the sound could heard in the evening until around 10.30pm - with the sounds fading in and out.
