  • Is volunteer crucifixion considered as a sin? I can understand their devotion.for doing this. But then again, imitating the crucifixion of Jesus could be sacrilegious.

  • Fuck Jesus.

  • This needs to be an Olympic Event -- better yet, get a smart TV network to televise this against the Super Bowl every year. The bookies in Las Vegas will go wild with glee. Show Me The Money. Every time a president of the United States sees their approval rating go below 50 percent, he has to crucify himself or the whole world will think the Philippines is the Number One SuperPower. If Dick Cheney can shoot a fellow Republican in the face and if George W. Bush can choke to death on pretzels....

  • i'm really worried ... They say that this is a Filipino Culture which all Filipino Catholics are practicing.. Guys. let me clarify things here. Not all Filipinos practice the Non-Official Catholicism for they are influenced by paganism. The Official Catholics are those who follow the teachings of the Catholic Church (which do not allow crucifixion) Stations of the Cross is done during Good Friday for the faithful to meditate and reflect. not stuffs like crucifixion.

  • "the WAY OF THE CROSS is the depiction of the final hours (or Passion) of Jesus, and the devotion commemorating the Passion. The object of the Stations is to help the faithful to make a spiritual pilgrimage of prayer, through meditating upon the chief scenes of Christ's sufferings and death." pls don't try to make any negative comment if you haven't know what it really meant. the tradition might be misinterpreted by others, official catholic churches don't do crucifixion,(only unofficials do)

  • Not really Good Friday...

  • WTF? this is satanic-human sacrifice!! this aint worshipping God. Good friday was meant to be a time for reflection not hurting your self

  • Im filipino. and what the hell? why do u want to crucify urself.? god doesnt want you to hurt yourself. and what the hell, why are they trying to act like a bunch of acientt fuckin romans? witht the capes. uu dont see doing that!

  • I don't get it.....there's NOTHING in the Bible about this.....isn't this blasphemy? Making things up on your own and then even making it as a yearly ceremony??

    In fact, the whole purpose of Christ Crucifixion is that He bears our sin but what is this? Are these people suppose to bear our sin too? But they can't, they are just people, not son of God. I just don't understand the Philippines....

    How about they use all these spent expenses and time to help the poor instead??

  • @arescraft it's not about the one who is crucified... we know they cannot bear our sins.. because we do know Jesus Christ... we do such ceremony every year to remember all our sins and repent by meditating the scenes of the 'passion'.. The Way of the Cross tradition doesn't mean "crucify them!" .. because the official catholic churches don't allow crucifixion. you don't understand the Philippines? please know the TRADITION first.research.

  • @09Harlem

    Tradition? As far as I understand, Catholicism is the major christian group and anything you do goes through proper channel at the Vatican, even bible revisions. Hell, the bibles you guys use have been largely edited by the catholic church since 200 ad. If you already let them edit the bible, why not recognize them as proper authority.

  • @arescraft yes tradition.. the WAY OF THE CROSS is a tradition which only depicts the scenes of christ's suffering.. then we say the prayers.station to station..i didn't say that the catholic tradition is the "crucifixion" because that's not what the church is teaching. i just don't like what other people saying here that the filipino catholics are doing wrong. just some. in the crucifixion scene, the tradition is just to tie their arms on the cross and not to nail them.actors shud not be hurt.

  • @09Harlem

    Catholicism is the true form of Christianity. The Vatican is the authority on this matter. Period.

  • Comment removed

  • @arescraft yah..im just saying what Catholicism in the Philippines really is.. some catholics in the Philippines are influenced by paganism. and the true catholics here follows the way how "Stations of the Cross" should be, not in the manner of hurting one's self. the priests and bishops also do not want people practicing this. (it's the latter's choice) i hope you do understand that this has nothing to do with our church. it's their belief. not the church's practice as catholics.

  • @arescraft oh.. by the way. do you think those people are nailed and hurt? i don't know what had happened there but if they did not nail those guys and they pray and repent... then it's the catholic's common devotion. well i don't know about that people there in the video. if other catholics don't follow the church's teachings, then they are really WRONG. Official Catholics don't do that. Only Non-Official Catholics do.

  • @09Harlem

    Catholicism is the only way.

  • @arescraft ahh.. yes.

  • @09Harlem

    Don't be a heathen, join mother russia. :D

  • @arescraft im not a heathen

  • @09Harlem

    yes you are, you denounced the authority of the Catholic Church.

  • @arescraft i did not denounced the authority of the catholic church. what did i say for you to think i did denounce it? im sorry i did not understand.

  • @09Harlem

    Judges 3:19-25 ESV And Ehud reached with his left hand, took the sword from his right thigh, and thrust it into his belly. And the hilt also went in after the blade, and the fat closed over the blade, for he did not pull the sword out of his belly; and the dung came out.

  • I am a devout Catholic ...and I understand what this means! Only a mature one can do. Not those assholes who criticize this and shut their mouth last September 11 2001.

  • Please Dont Say this ritual is stupid.Please Respect Our Ritual This What we believe and you cannot do anything about it Some of those who do this is to god to forgive their sins This not Stupidity Respect Us And we will Respect You

    Sorry for bad english

  • @marcotic1010 hhii. uhm im filipino and catholic. its stupid. GOD DOES NOT WANT TO HURTURSELFS. mhkay. ughhh. and u dont see me doing this!

  • If they only read the BIBLE.....

  • want to know why they must nailed to the cross cause when they nailed to the cross and die jesus will wash ther sins and they will be holy

  • How exactly can these people tolerate the pain? Not to sound crazy, but I have actually whipped my back with a belt for the same religious reasons. But its hard to keep on whipping my back, I can only handle like 10 whips, then I have to take a break. How can I increase my pain tolerance?

  • Just pure ridiculous. Christianity has once again made people became so stupid. Christianity has nothing good to offer to mankind, except LIES, STUPIDITY, FALSEHOOD & ABSURDITY 1

  • @SophiaTellsTruth at least christianity did not make terrorists -_- ..and a big plus is that it helps our tourism

  • What a fucking twat!

  • Who are them 3 nailed to the crosses?

  • and from up in heaven, god shouted down "WHAT ARE YOU DOING, YOU IDIOTS?"

  • Savages

  • reenactment of passion of christ is tradition not ignorance

  • @Seann1995 its not ignorance its anti-christ

  • Jesus paid it all .... so that we wouldnt have to.... EVER......

  • Jesus paid it all .... so that we wouldnt have to.... EVER......

  • i believed in god i am a catholic but sometimes our belief is too much

  • The Philippines is the only Catholic Nation in the South East Asia Why you don't respect there belief. you i you are a Christian if your God say to you kill your self you grant the wish of God. but the Filipino people is ready to die for God like in the Bible i don't remember whats vers. the man that God sad kill your Son to the mountain but stopped by an angel,, sorry for my English..

  • @knightslucky sorry .. ur talking about abraham and isaac ( read genesis chapter 22)... it was a test from God. a test of abes faithfullness to God. he didnt kill his son but of corse if were christians we obey God but Jesus died for us all... he sufferd for us so that we wouldnt have to. so that we could spend eternity with him .. God bless u

  • dis s not a mockery..its a sacrifice

  • This is actually not permitted by the Catholic church. They have told them to stop but because they are the police, they cannot force them. Personally, I think they should be excommunicated for performing a mockery of Jesus' suffering.

  • Let's not talk about what the Catholic church wants... they're flooded with child abuse scandals so they got no authority to say something's wrong here

  • Does the Catholic Church have these poor people in some kind of strangle hold?

  • this is the catholic gift to the nations fake faith

  • This is just a tradition transpired from a culture but not permitted by Roman Catholic church.

    It is a good reminder about the sufferings of Jesus Christ but they should realize deeds or by works is not sufficient if they want salvation. They have to accept that Jesus Christ is not just the son of God but God himself, know what the Bible says- the 4 Gospels of Jesus Christ, so no one will be fooled.

  • WOW! What a GREAT idea! Is there anyway to get Nancy Pelosi up on that thing? Juuust asking!

  • JUST PLAIN STUPID. I know i am Filipino but its stupid why they have to do this kind of things

  • nakakaaawa si hesus! sa kagagawan ng mga mangmang kristyanos

    take note jesus(peace be upon him) never ever CRUCIFIED

  • impreionate,la verdad es muy impactante, saludos desde españa spain

  • they forgot the part where the massive earthakes destroy a bunch of stuff and the storm and stuff after they crusified jesus :/

  • what's amazing is that there are people who actually believe this "tradition" of self-flagellation and ostentatious displays of religous devotion is a sign of respect.

  • im sorry if this is your culture for some of you but i really doubt god would want this for you. i agree with kkari76 i really wish this kind of religion would STOP.

  • Creator, savior, redemeer ,, Not begotten, He is One, He is Unique, not like anything

  • I was crucified the exact same way here in the states,except the nails were much longer.

    One nail was driven thru both of my feet.The pain is incredible. My hat goes off to those

    in the Phillipines.

  • well this is a refrence to the crusifixion of christ and they take them down before they die anyway so they will just have scars on there hands and feet its a custom

  • Only afterwards all their wives , gfs and daughters will flood the internet cafes scamming westerners to pay their hospital fees .

    Scamming being another custom of theirs .

  • God is love,jesus said love ur neighbors as u love urselves..hurting urself is not loving urself..this is stupidity

  • @akrho2007 >>> Stupidity? How about Terrorism? Its ok for you!? Hey open ur mind this is not what you think. If u are not Catholic i understand you. But if you are, then just enjoy your beer and get drunk in the beach in holy week! lolzzz

  • @akrho2007 Jesus just died again, laughing. He peed that little cloth diaper in the tomb where he lies 69-position with Mary Magdalene. That's why to this very day, we have a Holy Sacrament Relic of Jesus's face pressed into Ho Magdalene's Victoria Secret thong. Bill Clinton must be The Second Cumming of Jesus. Otherwise, Monica Lewinsky would not have saved Bill's Presidential Jizz on her Devil With the Red Dress, Devil or Angel that was really Bill's dress. Trying to be FBI Director Hoover.

  • Christianity is a sick sect. All religions are stupid. Very much people was killed for a belief. God's non-existence is now proven. Whithout belief life were better.

  • satan made you believe that God doesn't exist.

  • Some of these men are criminals & had been rehabilitated & born again christians. But the society still feared & outcasts them after they get out. To proved that they are devoted born again christians they punished,lash & hang themselves. Now, if you have an ex-con right next door to you would'nt you wonder if he's safe as neighbor?

    HITLER hurt a lot of people and he has millions of "FOLLOWERS" praised him like GOD.

    These men are not HARMING ANYONE but themselves. AGAIN NOT HARMING ANYONE

  • You are right, they aren't hurting anyone but themselves.

    Atheists are not saying (to my knowledge) that this practice should be illegal for fully consenting adults; we are however, saying that Christianity is a sick, perverted system.

  • stupid fucking tourists. stupid voyeurs!!

  • Wait, one of the soldiers should stab him in the side now...

  • With all due respect, there are many ways to do good deeds by not hurting yourself. First is to believe that God IS ONLY ONE and has NO SON. For God is pure and can never have a son. That Jesus was never crucified. It was only the romans who boasted that he was crucified. Embrace Islam. The Religion of Prophet Jesus Christ A.S.

  • people do this kind of stuff everyday everywhere.Remember that each time you smoke or use drugs you are doing damage to your body.I've seen many people that weigh as much as a small car, and if you ask me,I think they are making themselves suffer more than these people by being so fat.I pity those people who keep abusing themselves just to end up dead or dying.These people who nail themselves to the cross maybe hurting themselves but they come out of this experience a stronger person...

  • Is it in Pampanga?

  • I spent some of my childhood in the Philippines. I remember this tradition. It's a form of penitent. They are only on the cross for a few minutes and quickly taken down and rushed to the hospital.

    FACT: The nails that are used are sterile. It was soaked in alcohol or sterile liquid (Inside a sterile jar).

    This story was featured on TNT's Ripley's Believe It or Not!

  • I'm a catholic too. But what they do has nothing to do with religion. It's sick

  • wow.. you're a moron.. it's called a sign of respect.. and it became a tradition that's why they do it every year..

  • hmmm God gave us a body, it is his body. we should love it, not hurt it.that's a sign of respect.

  • Comment removed

  • no one here has the right to question anyones faith. non christian think that christianity is stupid altogether! so just watch and learn from it, and of course if u don't like it, it's only one click away. go figure!

  • Hey you guys. It's none of your business to criticize these people. If they want to be extreme in their expressions of love, let them be. You don't know what's in their mind. How dare you judge them?! You're all hypocrites, like those damn Pharisees.

  • stupid catholic, whats the different between them and the shia of islam? same stupidity

  • For those people who post comments that is not that good to hear, please do stop it,if you think that this is stupidity...then keep it yourself, it's not just the person who upload this video you are hurting but those who watched it.Most Filipino's are Catholics and they have been a devotee of Christ, and that's one of the reason why they are doing such. This is being done once a year and this is also their way of repenting their sins.Please do respect us catholics, as we do the same with you.

  • WTF! this heppend too in my country! holy shit i gotta tell mom! i am a filipino

    bakit ganito ang mga pilipino!

  • FYI, We Filipino's or most of us are Catholics, this is one of our tradition during lenten season, for some, this is their way thanking Christ or mostly to ask forgiveness for the sins they have done throughout the year."Bakit ganito ang mga Pilipino?" kasi gusto nilang ipakita sa lahat lalung lalo na sa Panginoon ang pagsisisi nila sa mga kasalanan hindi lang ng kanilang mga sarili kundi pati na rin ang mga nagkasala sa kanila.

  • kelangan ba talagang saktan nila ang kanilang mga sarili..dapat nga mahalin ang ating katawan, patatawarin naman tayo ng Diyos kung lubos ang pagsisisi natin, di na kelangan saktan sarili, na tingin ko hndi magugustuhan ng Diyos un.

  • Bet they got more chocolate in there baskets after this

  • weve they actually nailed to the cross, or tied?

    :/

  • thy are nailed in the feet and hands and they later .......die...

  • so "ouch" would class as an understatement

    rather them than me....

  • they were REALLY nailed to the cross. no joke.

  • Ok I'm not filipino, but I tell you that this clip shows the strong beliefs that these people have in god. The corporal punishments could be a very good way for them to reedem themselves. It also shows strength of character. Now how many people do you know who are willing to go through something like this to defend values that are dear to them?

  • none cuz my friends arent fuckin retarded

  • thats the stupidest thing ive ever seen.

  • yes.. stupid motherfuckers!!

  • easter eggs doesn't even correspond to easter, Christ or His final days on earth. We filipinos celebrate what Jesus did for humanity to save us. This is our way, for westerners, easter is just a holiday to sit on the couch and watch TV. Christian or Atheist, it is a tremendous feat to remember the most famous man or living God in recorded history. This man has been doing this for 7 years, just to show the capacity of the human mind and body.

  • file under "incredible feats of stupidity"

  • wtf?!

  • I'd rather just hunt easter eggs or something.

  • @ZX2ManDave

    Funniest comment ive read all week!!!!

  • i dotn know why but in my country philippines which is this video!they just wanna do the suffering of jesus to feel wat jesses feelled

  • Thats gotta hurt. Its not wrong, but why are they doing this?

  • this people believe that by doing this, they get rid of their sin, and some do it as a devotion because some miracle happen to them like being cured of incurable disease. this practice is not condoned by the church and only handful of people do this in a small community in central philippines which become an attraction to tourist during holy week.

  • extremism is never good>>> religion=war [period]

  • Is this right or wrong according to man?

  • doesn't matter. it's stupid. plain stupid.

  • Tuli is stupid too. That doesnt stop them. Watch Dr Jennasexyness on youtube in "operation tuli." What a bitch.

  • this is so wrong,..a body is God's temple, repent without hurting ourselves, we should love our own body because it is also God's body.

  • Hey - us Pinoys want to show god how handsome we are!@!@@@ The best way is to do what HE wants... yeeee. That means nailing myself to a crossss.... besides, it makes my cock goes hard and feels so good after a pinay circumcises meeeeeee... YAY!!!!!

  • ow ?? what do you mean ??

  • ow..
