'I get the best view' of Glastonbury Festival

Mr Gohil films the Pyramid Stage from a crane above the crowds at Worthy Farm

A camera operator at Glastonbury Festival describes his job as the "best in the world" as he celebrates 25 years in the role.

Adam Gohil operates the cameras on one of the many cranes dotted around Worthy Farm to get the best shots of the Pyramid Stage.

He told the BBC Sounds series Inside Glastonbury that it was "an honour and privilege" to work at the festival.

Mr Gohil said: "I love this place and I get the best view in the house."

Mr Gohil is based towards the back of the Pyramid Stage field and is 82ft (25m) above the crowd.

He said: "It isn’t that high actually as you're on a downward sloping hill.

"We’re really safe and we’re in a harness and secure."

Mr Gohil said he has filmed most of the Pyramid headline acts for the last 25 years.

He said: "I’d love to film Fleetwood Mac one day.

"We’ve done Beyonce, Sir Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, the Rolling Stones but that would just be the icing on cake."

Some performances at Glastonbury can last for more than two hours, especially if it is a big headliner, which makes going to the toilet more difficult.

Mr Gohil said: "You have to take a bottle up with you just in case you need a wee.

"Thankfully, I've never had to go in 25 years and let's hope it stays that way.

"It can be lonely up there if it’s cold, but I have my own little vibes whilst doing the job I love and just try to take in that an amazing view."
