To celebrate the global launch of Destiny: The Taken King on 15th September, leading UK YouTubers Alex Noon aka Arekkz and James White aka Wizzite took part in a daring real-life stunt inspired by new super abilities seen in the game.
Attending a special Guardian Training Camp in London, Arekkz and Wizzite learned how to wield lightning, just like a Warlock Stormcaller. Wearing a special Voltrex™ suit connected to a Tesla Coil, Arekkz and Wizzite appeared to shoot lightning from their hands. Three quarters of a million volts of electricity surged across their body as bolts of lightning several meters long sparked from their fingertips.
As well as the daring Stormcaller stunt, Arekkz and Wizzite wielded a giant flaming metal hammer, just like a Titan Sunbreaker and discovered what it takes to become a Hunter Nightstalker, posing with a glowing, ‘void-energy’ bow.
The incredible activities at the Guardian Training Camp were staged especially by MTFX – a British special effects company who have created ingenious effects for many Film, Television and Live event productions.
