'Wreck rooms' let people lose control — and smash everything up

In the stark, brightly lit room, crowbars and baseball bats swing furiously in all directions. Glass shards fly everywhere. Metal and plastic are busted to shreds.

It’s all part of a thrill-seeking new fad making its way across the country: releasing pent up tension and anxiety by spending a half-hour obliterating a large variety of objects, like beer bottles, old printers and computer monitors.

Call it unadulterated fun — complete with a twist of psychotherapy.

Wreck Rooms are the newest craze for adults of any age looking for a night of fun mixed with stress relief. From New York to California, a growing number of these facilities are popping up.

In Las Vegas, thrill seekers — who are required to wear white hazmat-looking suits with protective facemasks and work gloves — pay $35 for 30-minute pummeling sessions at Wreck Room. They are armed with baseball bats or crowbars and given free rein to pound electronics, furniture and glass bottles.
