Religious devotees at Thailand's Vegetarian Festival pierce their cheeks with everything from guns and swords to umbrellas and bicycles. PHOTOS BELOW. WARNING: Graphic content. Blood is visible in some images.
Piercings are not new or uncommon in Malaysia. Many do it for aesthetic reasons. Some do it for religious ones such as in Thaipusam.
Thailand's Vegetarian Festival takes piercings to a whole new level of extreme. Knives, swords, guns, umbrellas, and even bicycles are used as piercing objects. We can't handle the pain, but these people apparently can. And for that, they have our utter respect.
