Curry the Fakir
Because of the rain some of the performances during the Haninge Day had to be moved to two indoor scenes and I didn't bother to check those out. This guy did put on a show outdoors. This is Curry the Fakir. He was a big hit with the kids who screamed to him not to put the burning torch downs his pants! Between his shows he walked around the area on stilts. He has one Youtube video online so I decided to post that here for you to enjoy!
What an amazing act, how on earth does he do those things?? The nose thing really grossed me out. I love his facial expressions, what a character he looks.
chacun ses petits plaisirs ;)
