NOT FOR THE FAINT HEARTED

Mediums in a trance with objects like spears, swords, rulers, umbrella and saw pierced through their cheeks. This was during the 9 Emperor Gods Procession organised by the Tow Boh Keong Temple in Ayer Tawar this evening.
This is definitely not an event for the faint hearted. Me? I am used to it. Hey.  I have been on this vegetarian fast since I was 13 or 14 years old and have been witnessing this event for years. That is why I can go up close to the mediums and take close up shots of them.
