Crazy Phillipinos nail themselves to crosses on Good Friday
On a dusty hill, with the crowd pressing round, 11 men had themselves nailed to crosses in imitation of Christ's suffering. The nails hammered into their hands and feet were as thick as pencils.
"I feel lighter after I have been nailed to the cross. But my cross was really heavy," said Ruben Enage, who started 19 years ago after his mother was cured of tuberculosis.
"It takes a lot of courage to get up there," said Matthew James, an American in the Philippines on business. "A lot of faith there."
A lot of Faith? A lot of fecking nutters!
