AMMAN, Jordan — Ahmed and Sana grab a hammer each and hit the office furniture in tandem. A few screens get broken, along with a printer, but no one is hurt, and once the room is in shambles both appear a lot happier.

The young couple are among those who unleash their rage at the Axe Rage Rooms, one of the new “in” venues in Amman, the Jordanian capital. The Axe Rage Rooms are the place to smash dishes and mugs, break electrical appliances and kick and slam furniture in rooms that resemble an office, a living room or a kitchen.

Ahmed, for example, chose a room that looks like an office to damage the furniture and take a swing or two at a computer and printer. “I really felt relieved after smashing all this,” he told Al-Monitor, confessing that the pressure of his jobs was driving him crazy on a daily basis.

The complex of rage rooms, located in the basement of a mall downtown, is the brainchild of Jordanian engineer Ala'din Atari, who understands well the magnitude of economic pressures and other sociopolitical factors in the daily lives of Jordanians.
