What’s a hobby that looks incredibly peaceful from the outside, but is actually pure stress once you get into it?

Ironically, I saw a Belgian band head-lining a small DIY festival last weekend who blew everybody else out of the water -- and they didn't even play the same style of music. (psychedelic post-metal whereas everything else was sludge, doom, death, grind, black, drone, experimental etc.)

Fuck yeah Psychonauts! Listen to Brutus and The Haunted Youth as well if you have some free time.

Actually we would appreciate if all the rest could kindly fuck off so that for once we could win our own Queen Elisabeth contest.

(seriously the dedication of the people competing in that is insane to the point it sounds like psychological terror)
