The pictures on the left show the reinactment of jesus being crucified on the cross(Isn't christianity great sometimes). These rites of penitence take place during holy week in the Philippines. These photos were taken in the town of Pampanga. The girl, pictured, is Elza jimenez. She was eighteen at the time. Elza, as many of the others, dragged their crosses to the site of their crucifiction. The ritual was carried out in the mid day sun under stifling heat. I am sad to say, they took the girl down after only ten minutes. |

These pictures were taken at the Martyrs of Paris museum. Some of the displays, not all shown here,are a man getting his eyes pulled out with tongs and a woman being bricked up. Others were a man being boiled in oil, a head being squeezed in a vise, and a man loosing his head in a guillotine Here you will find a man that was left inside his cage too
long.
