A pair of fans of the heavy metal band Iron Maiden launched a crowdfunding campaign to help Paul Di’Anno (aka The Beast), the band’s iconic original singer (on the band’s first two albums, Iron Maiden and Killers), get back on his feet literally, emotionally and professionally. Neglected by healthcare workers in the U.K., wheelchair-bound Di’Anno left his home in the middle of the pandemic and traveled to Croatia, where he rode an emotional rollercoaster, running out of money, reuniting with his former Maiden bandmates and falling in love — all while his health made a dramatic turn-around thanks to the goodwill of fans, doctors and nurses.
