Dude voluntarily gets crucified during Christian celebrations

SAN FERNANDO, LUZON, PHILIPPINES In the north of Luzon Island, a bizarre Christian tradition is practiced where people voluntarily get crucified. Real nails are used, and they hang on the cross for several hours. Locals try to replicate Christ’s suffering during the Good Friday celebrations to earn God’s blessing. Although many consider it an act of extremism, the locals speak of this tradition as a deeply spiritual matter.
