The Terrifying Thaipuism Festival
Spending their time in prayers and fast on that day, they even shave their heads, but mortification of flesh is the real reason for this festival taking place, the greater pain a devotee enduring. the greater the blessing of God, so devotees pierce their faces and bodies, with sharp skewers, also trying to pull heavy weights via hooks, piercing their flesh. Not a tourist attraction for the squeamish.
