Every year on August 31st the people of Nejapa, El Salvador get together and throw fireballs at each other in honor of a huge volcanic eruption that occurred in 1922.
Yeah, fireballs!
I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen these videos or watched the news coverage on my local news tonight.
See for yourself.
This video below from the 2008 festival.
Memo to all those idiots running with the bulls every year - get your ass to the fireball hurling festival in Nejapa for some real thrills!
