At Thaipusam, a Hindu festival celebrated by the Tamils in honour of Lord Murugan, devotees pierce their bodies with spikes and carry pots of milk in a procession in gratitude for fulfilled vows. The festival is marked yearly in southern India, Singapore, Malaysia and elsewhere around the world.

This is shocking, I’m curious how many people get serious infections afterwards since the one pic looks like they’re piercing people in the middle of the street.
I honestly wonder how this started out, I suspect it was rather tame but as time went on people wanted to out-do each other showing their devotion until it turned into this.
