Hindu devotees perform a stunt during a rehearsal for the 134th annual Rath Yatra, or chariot procession in the western Indian city of Ahmedabad on June 28. The annual religious procession, which will be held on July 3, commemorates a journey by Hindu god Jagannath, his brother Balabhadra and sister Subhadra, in specially made chariots.
This is one of the more shocking images seen this morning. I think my mouth dropped. It evokes many unanswered questions. Is this a stunt commonly performed? What are those spikes that look like nails that the man is lying on?

Steering a loaded bike one-handed at motorcycle speed takes some concentration.

This is by far the strangest photo I've seen this week. Do you think they're on the lamb, or just heading home for dinner? I couldn't resist - happy Friday!
