Danger Globe, the high-stakes globe of death stunt show, is set to launch and take center stage in the heart of UAE!
Founded by Brazilian performer and designer Guilherme Rodrigues, also known as Guil, the show packs extreme event entertainment across the UAE and the wider Middle East. Think of it as a fusion of performance art, mechanical precision, and human courage, designed to impress audiences and make its mark on various events, from festivals to brand happenings.
The long-awaited launch marks a major milestone in the show’s evolution. From humble circus beginnings in Brazil to international recognition, it’s grown into a renowned, high-impact entertainment experience that packs a punch.
Danger Globe’s roots go back to 1997, when Rodrigues’ family—aka Familia Rodrigues—began performing globe of death stunts in Brazil. The act gained traction at motorcycle events in the region, including features at the Interlagos Formula 1 track in São Paulo. Guil carried that tradition onto global stages, with performances at Top Gear Live and Dubai's Automadness.
"In every performance, we’re honoring a tradition that goes back decades," says Rodrigues. "But we’re also pushing it forward—adapting it to fit today’s audiences and the stories they’re looking to tell.”
In 2012, Rodrigues relocated to Dubai to pursue a career in design and UX, applying his creative touch to digital projects across a range of industries. Come 2020, he finally made the bold move of reuniting with his roots, shipping a custom-built globe from Brazil to Dubai, later assembled alongside local motorcycle enthusiasts at The Warehouse Four.
Despite COVID-19 setbacks, the successful trial performance brought together influencers and riders, reigniting momentum. The true breakthrough came in late 2021, when Danger Globe was featured in a Honda advertisement highlighting passion and loyalty, earning public praise from Honda’s top regional executives and sparking wider recognition.
Now fully operational in Dubai, Danger Globe offers immersive and customizable shows for the UAE market. Its performances earn diverse audiences and social media visibility through seamless visuals, promotional campaigns, and branded storytelling.
Behind-the-scenes clips and performance footage are available on the official Danger Globe YouTube channel, offering event organizers and fans a deeper look into the spectacle.
"We want to introduce new audiences to the thrill and tradition of the globe of death," says Guil. "Whether it's a full-blown festival or a private, branded event, we aim to deliver unique moments built on legacy, excitement, and innovation."
Make no mistake about it—Dubai is the ideal stage for Danger Globe. It’s a city that embraces ambition, innovation, and spectacle. For Guil, it’s the perfect place to grow a tradition built on courage and precision. His journey from Brazil to the UAE serves as a testament to what’s possible when passion and heritage meet opportunity and technology.
Danger Globe isn’t just a stunt show; it’s a statement about chasing dreams and pushing limits, all while enjoying the wild ride.
