Crazy anthropology

 


Something tells me anthropologists would go bananas if they saw the videos on this channel, created by Danish adventurer "Jones". In the upload above, he visits a Kumbha Mela in India, apparently one of the smaller ones. It´s 34 minutes of barely controlled chaos, both from the side of the Hindus and from Adventure-Jones himself. 

One part of the video *is* disturbing: what´s up with the "guru" and all those children and barely pubescent boys? Less disturbing (perhaps) is the Vaishnava ritual specialist who apparently incorporated the Muslim confession of faith into his Hindu puja...

Make of this material what you wish.
