Ci dessous, quelques photos du Festival El Colacho (saut sur bébés - baby jumping) organisé chaque année dans la ville de Castrillo de Murcia en Espagne pour célébrer la fête chrétienne de "Fête-Dieu". Pendant ce festival, des hommes habillés en diables sautent au dessus de dizaines de bébés posés sur des matelas alignés sur la chaussée. Ce Festival débile considéré comme l'un des plus dangereux au monde, vise à chasser les démons de la ville dans l'espoir d'une vie saine et prospère pour les bébés!
Les vrais démons sont dans les têtes des tarés (notamment les parents des bébés) qui acceptent de participer à un tel festival!

Baby jumping
Baby jumping (El Colacho) is a traditional Spanish practice dating back to 1620 that takes place annually to celebrate the Catholic feast of Corpus Christi in the village of Castrillo de Murcia near Burgos. During the act - known as El Salto del Colacho (the devil's jump) or simply El Colacho – men dressed as the Devil (know as the Colacho) jump over babies born during the previous twelve months of the year who lie on mattresses in the street. The festival has been rated as one of the most dangerous in the world. The origins of the tradition are unknown but it is said to cleanse the babies of original sin, ensure them safe passage through life and guard against illness and evil spirits. Pope Benedict has asked priests in Spain to distance themselves from the El Colacho, or La Octava Festival.
