Daring Act

This man is brave. Look at him carrying the `Kavadi'. It's a religious act called `Thaipusam' which is performed on an annual basis. By the way he was on a trance while performing this religious act.

Wow, I am in pain just watching it. Maybe that's it, no trance for me. Excellent image.
