PHUKET, Thailand -- A devotee to the Chinese Shrine of Jui Tui in Phuket, Thailand, has his face pierced by a bicycle and helped by others as he takes part in the annual Vegetarian Festival. Ritual Vegetarianism in Phuket traces it roots back to the early 1800's. The festival begins on the first evening of the ninth lunar month and lasts for nine days. Participants in the festival perform acts of body piercing as a means of shifting evil spirits from individuals onto themselves.

5. Good trick.

It LOOKS like a physical impossibility. The part of the bicycle frame that forms the piercing is a welded member which would have to be basically cut through with a hacksaw and then re-welded to accomplish this. So let's just say I'm sceptical as to the picture's authenticity.

12. That pussy! That bike had the crank and pedals still on when I

gave it to him, I walked around with a midget on each pedal going up and down.

It wasn't just body piercing, it was modern fucking art! :nuke:
