2/13/2006: Splashing molten metal as folk art



I wish this shot were larger. It would be much cooler-looking if it were about twice this size. But the most amazing thing is what the guy is doing: he's splashing molten iron into the air.

He's only wearing a wet sheepskin coat to protect himself, too. It turns out this is a folk art called "Dashuhua", and it's performed here to celebrate a lantern festival.
