Netflix viewers cannot get enough of a 'jaw-dropping' documentary dubbed the 'most chaotic watch since Tiger King'.

2020 was the year of the Tiger King, with viewers left hooked to the story of Joe Exotic, whose real name is Joseph Allen Maldonado-Passage, and his arrest and conviction of two murder-to-hire counts of Big Cat Rescue CEO Carole Baskin, on top of multiple wildlife violations.

And for any fans looking for something equally as 'chaotic', they are being urged to check out the Trainwreck series on Netflix.

The documentary series has explored numerous events such as Travis Scott's 'Astroworld' tragedy and the 'Poop Cruise'; this film tells the story of the infamous Canadian politician, Rob Ford.

Ford was a former businessman who was first elected to the position of Toronto’s mayor in 2010, and controversies marred his tenure.

Trainwreck: Mayor of Mayhem tells the rise and fall of the former Toronto Mayor, and a TikToker who goes by the name of Katie Movie Reviews dubbed the episode 'jaw-dropping', adding it's the ‘most chaotic political watch since Tiger King’.

Rebecca Nicholson, from The Guardian, shared similar thoughts, as she penned in her review: "This is jaw-dropping, and provocative, and a reminder of how certain parts of the western world got to where we are."

However, John Serba, from the Decider, wrote: "This doc slaps together some fantastical facts, calls it a day, and is woefully inexhaustive."

Ford's career came crashing down on him back in 2013 after video footage surfaced of him appearing to smoke crack cocaine, which was ultimately the politician's downfall.

A second video surfaced in April 2014 of Ford seemingly smoking crack again, which led to the Canadian opening up on his addiction and admitting to being in rehab.

"I have tried to deal with these issues by myself over the past year. I know that I need professional help, and I am now 100% committed to getting myself right," Ford said in a statement in 2014.

"I have a problem with alcohol, and the choices I have made while under the influence."

After spending a few months out of politics, Ford returned to office in June of 2014 before leaving the role of Toronto's Mayor in November that year as his term came to an end.

The politician had planned to run again in 2016, but after he was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer known as liposarcoma, Ford decided to withdraw.

Ford died in March 2016 at the age of 46, with his family saying in a statement: "With heavy hearts and profound sadness, the Ford family announces the passing of their beloved son, brother, husband and father."
