Burning Man is an eight-day-long annual festival that takes place in Black Rock City, a temporary city in Black Rock Desert in Nevada, 150 km northt of Reno in September each year.

The event is described by organisers as an experiment in community, radical self-expression, and radical self-reliance and takes its name from the ritual of burning a large wooden sculpture of a man on the sixth day. How weird and wondering does life get!

They didn’t seem to have much luck this year as somebody set the man on fire (as a joke) a day earlier.
