Video: When Fast Zombies Attack In Thailand

We've talked about the Sak Yant Tattoo Festival on our podcast, and Evo went into greater detail on an episode of the Bangkok Podcast. But words -- written or spoken -- can only go so far to describe what happens at Wat Bang Phra every year.

While I was busy taking pictures of the event, Evo captured some video. I stitched together just over two minutes of the choice bits to show you what it looks like on the ground when 10,000 people actually lose their minds.

The Sak Yant tattoo festival happens once a year at a Wat in northern Bangkok. These tattoos are believed to offer mystical powers, protection, or good luck to those who receive them. The festival starts on Friday night with Ajaans giving hundreds of tattoos throughout the night and into the morning.
