The Baining Fire Dance

I got lucky getting a chance to go out and watch this baining fire dance!!!

usually if you are working on a cruise ship, we cannot actually watch this show by the locals,
because the company needs us to work! but luckily, all the guest on our ship, went out to watch also the show from the locals
we drove 45 minutes to 1 hour to get to the baining tribe, and as we watch the show and enjoyed the night! we manage to get some video footage of this rare tribe dance!
it was also pooring rain during the event and it is a bit hard to take some good picture and video because we cant go near the dancers and it was all muddy and we might slip if we force our way inside.

here are some knowledge about the baining fire dancers

SACRED AND CAPTIVATING BAINING FIRE DANCE IS UNIQUE TO THE BAINING PEOPLE LIVING IN THE MOUNTAIN FORESTS OF EAST NEW BRITAIN PROVINCE OF PAPUA NEW GUINEA. PERFORMED ONLY ON RARE OCCASIONS, THE INITIATED YOUNG MEN, WEARING STUNNING GIANT MASKS, DANCE BAREFOOT ON FIRE. THEIR MURKY SILHOUETTES MOVING IN THE DARKNESS COMBINED WITH HYPNOTISING CHANTING, BAMBOO THUMPING, FLICKERING FIRELIGHT AND FIRE SPARKS MAKE THE BAINING FIRE DANCE A SPECTACULAR SIGHT.

I also enjoyed their chanting! make sure that you guys turn on your volume! for sure you will be enjoying the chants of this tribe.

has anyone been here?

how was it for your expirience?
