Hollywood heavyweight crashes Black Sabbath mosh pit at last ever gig
Black Sabbath said farewell to their 58-year career in style with a surprising cameo from a Hollywood star in the crowd.
Lead singer Ozzy Osbourne, 76, was overwhelmed with emotion as he took to the stage one last time at Villa Park in Birmingham.
The Back to the Beginning show has been one of the hottest tickets this year, marking both the end and the first time the group had played together in 20 years.
Ahead of Ozzy's entrance, metal icons like Metallica and Slayer took to the stage but it was another familiar face who captured fans attention.
During Pantera's set, Jason Momoa burst from beside the stage and beelined straight for the growing mosh pit.
The Game of Thrones star climbed over the barrier and got stuck in as he fist-bumped fans who wildly jumped around him.
We're assuming Aquaman could hold his own but the camera didn't show him leaving the mosh pit at any point.
Fan videos flooded social media, with Jason, 45, visible on the big screen before the camera panned back to the stage.
Kornymoon on X posted: 'Jason Mamoa a real metalhead! Walked into the center of the pit to mosh with the crowd.'
'Imagine tearing it up in the pit to Tool, Metallica, and Black Sabbath…then you turn around and Aquaman is right there thrashing around and having the time of his life,' said goodbyefriend.
Retin_Dim added: 'My apologies, Jason Momoa. I was not familiar with your game.'
'It was fun watching him crowd surf! 🤘,' shared buzzsawsmom as others branded it 'epic'.

Jason wasn't the only celeb catching the final Black Sabbath show, with music legends like Queen's Sir Brian May, Steven Tyler of Aerosmith, and Rolling Stones icon Ronnie Wood also at the venue.
Black Sabbath's reunion gig was billed as the final ever show, after the deterioration of Ozzy's health over the past few years.
The legend sat in a leather bat throne and delivered a short solo set before being joined by bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward.
Before leaving the stage, having sung hits like Crazy Train, Suicide Solution, and War Pigs, an emotional Ozzy closed the show with Paranoid and said: 'It's the last song ever.
'Your support has enabled us to live an amazing lifestyle…thank you from the bottom of our hearts.'
Afterwards, wife and manager of 40 years, Sharon Osbourne, confirmed she's finally 'done' after a lifetime in the music business. More Trending
The music mogul has spent much of the past few decade looking after her husband who was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease back in 2003, after suffering a near-fatal quad bike accident the same year.
In 2019, Ozzy had a major fall in his LA home, which aggravated his quad bike injuries, dislodging metal rods in his back, neck and shoulders.
She told Billboard: 'I've been doing this since I was 15, and I'm done. We just want to live our life and do what we want to do and not have to follow an itinerary anymore.'

Ozzy Osbourne was taken totally by surprise when daughter Kelly got engaged
Sharon Osbourne has opened up about husband Ozzy's 'surprise' when daughter Kelly got engaged backstage at his last gig. On Saturday night, the Crazy Train rocker performed for the final time to over 40,000 fans in Birmingham's Villa Park, accompanied by his Black Sabbath bandmates Tony Iommi, Geezer Butler, and Bill Ward. The rowdy crowd screamed, danced, and showered Ozzy with adoration, giving him a legend's send-off following his years of health struggles. But Ozzy's last performance wasn't the only reason for emotions running high over the weekend, as Kelly's boyfriend, Sid Wilson, decided to get down on one knee. The Slipknot rocker, 48, who confirmed his romance with Kelly in 2022, popped the question in the presence of Sharon and Ozzy, with Mrs. O now spilling further details on the special moment. Speaking to TMZ, the former X Factor judge shared that Sid, who has actually known Kelly since the late 90s, asked for her permission to propose three to four months ago. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video He told Sharon that he was going ahead with the grand gesture at Ozzy's final gig—but kept the music legend in the dark until the last moment. Sharon added that she and Ozzy are 'over the moon' for their daughter, with a huge romantic celebration planned for them in a couple of weeks, ensuring Ozzy has time to recuperate after his gig first. The famous family decided against a raucous night on the town after the concert itself, given that the singer, who revealed his Parkinson's diagnosis in 2020, had already had a long day. Sharon is also keen for Kelly to expand their family further once she's a married woman, declaring that she wants 'a lot more babies' from her and Sid, who welcomed son Sidney in late 2022. And it's probably not something she even needs to ask for, as Kelly herself has already made it clear that she 'definitely' wants to have 'more babies' with her husband-to-be. In the video of Sid's proposal that Kelly shared on Instagram, the shock was clear on her face when he pulled out the ring. 'Kelly, you know I love you more than anything,' he began in his speech. 'Nothing would make me happier than to spend the rest of my life with you.' 'So, in front of your family and all of our friends, Kelly, will you marry me?', he asked her. As Sid gave his future father-in-law a closer look at the dazzling ring, Sharon applauded. It later emerged that the engagement ring had a deeper story behind it, with luxury jeweller Mouawad telling Metro that Sid wanted the accessory to have a connection to Kelly's late friend, Joan Rivers. 'So I have a nickname for Kelly, and it's 'Honeybee', and coincidentally, a friend of hers, Joan Rivers, used to call her this,' he revealed. 'It was a nickname [Rivers] had for her. I didn't know this. It's like an amazing coincidence; it's like whoa, like, meant to be.' After Rivers died in 2014, Kelly got a bee tattoo in her honour to 'always buzz around' her. And now, her 18K yellow gold ring also has a beehive-inspired structure, featuring a variation of diamonds. Upon first seeing the ring in all its glory, Sid said it was 'more than perfect'. Kelly previously admitted that she wasn't super fussed about getting married, insisting it 'wasn't important' to her. 'I found my guy. We don't need the certificate,' she told Us Weekly last year. However, since Sid has always been keen on becoming husband and wife, she's more than happy to exchange vows. And she'll be doing so in the presence of her mum and dad, who recently moved back to the UK after several years in the States. Speaking on Instagram at the weekend to express her pride for her father after his show, Kelly hailed Black Sabbath's Back to the Beginning concert as one of the 'most magical experiences' of her life. She said in a video shared to her Instagram Story: 'I just wanted to take a moment to say thank you. More Trending 'Thank you to everyone who came to the show last night, [and] thank you to everybody who was involved in the show last night. You have no idea what it did for my dad. To view this video please enable JavaScript, and consider upgrading to a web browser that supports HTML5 video 'It was one of the most magical experiences of my entire life, and if I keep talking, I'm probably going to end up crying again. So, that's all I'll say for now. Thank you.' While on stage, Ozzy, who performed sitting on a throne due to his mobility issues, said similar. He told the crowd: 'I don't know what to say, man. I've been laid up for, like, six years. You have no idea how I feel—thank you from the bottom of my heart.' Got a story?
