This is very strange, so strange I had to post it. The chasing and whipping of teens at the end is kind of funny, but the baby thing is dangerous.
There's a village in Spain that has a yearly festival where men dressed as devils jump over babies that are lying on mattresses. There are several mattresses lined up on a street and each one has a few babies on it.
The purpose is to drive away evil and
cleanse
the babies of their original sin. The devils also chase teens through the streets and spank them with a whip. Again, to drive away evil.The festival's been going on since 1620.
