A few weeks back I went to Bali to help celebrate a mate's 40th birthday. On the night of the party, there was the usual amount of drinking, eating, chatting and laughing. It was the typical fun party action and all (messy) business as usual until the dancing girls showed up. They wandered around to the beat of frenzied local percussion as they waved some flaming batons through the night air.

The lovely lasses left to be replaced with a guy in a glittering jacket, who started twirling the fire with more impressive speed and enthusiasm. After his short demonstration the girls came back, resuming  their absentminded noodlings with the fiery sticks. Normally I'd probably have devoted more attention to them -- scantily-clad Asian girls are hardly cause for me to wrinkle my nose in disapproval -- but tonight my gaze was captured by this guy:

Dude, that looks badass. I definetely would have liked to have seen that kind of a show. Did someone just hire this group to dance at a personal party or was this organized in some way?

Was that just some random dude at the party?

I don't know what an angle grinder is =( 
 
(never mind, Wikipedia to the rescue. That's a pretty ballsy thing to do. I wouldn't do that even if I had three codpieces on and they were all made of diamond)
 
But other than that, seems like an awesomely ridiculous event that can only happen somewhere far from Western civilization. That's a pretty crazy story to be able to tell.

Heh. As great as a story that would be, I can only assume he and the others were specifically hired to bring the awesome. "

That's awesome,

You should put Brads face in it though,

You could Photoshop Brads face as if he is grabing him, or not if thats just too creepy,

You've shown up my party though, Damn looks like a fantastic night,

Let me be your Muse.

Muse and abuse,

I didn't know Scorpion was a fan of The Rocky Horror Picture Show.
