Musicians overexerting or endangering themselves, on video, for our enjoyment

I want to see videos of musicians - of any kind - really busting their guts to give incredible performances or an incredible show. Doesn't matter what style of music but they should be almost breaking their heads with concentration and effort - as if their lives depend on it, except they don't of course, they just love their music so much. They should be performances that, if you were there, you would never forget as long as you lived.

Examples: Daniel Lessner playing Wagner's Tannhäuser Overture on piano:



and Herbert von Karajan conducting Beethoven's 7th Symphony:



and Eddie Halliwell perhaps not concentrating (or even thinking) very hard but almost breaking (his head would have broken had that crowd parted) himself with a risky dive mid-mix:
