During the 5-yearly "Oththekola mahotsava" for Sri. Vishnumoorthy Daiva (Theyyam) at Mithanaadu Agalpady Padippure at Kasaragod, Kerala, India the breathtaking spectacle of 'Velichapaada's (devotees of the Sri Vishnumoorthy) Fire Walking on the sacred "Meleri" fire. Following this, the Daiva (Theyyam) performs "Agnistaanam" (Fire Bathing) on the sacred fire.
It seems more like running on charcoal to me.
