Huge Firespitting Alien

Huge fire pendulum alien-like art piece at Burning Man 2006 in the Nevada desert. Propane propulsion at the top, 4 sharp axe blades on the bottom - swinging over a couple people on the ground.

Burning Man is an eight-day-long festival held annually, beginning on the last Monday of August and ending on the United States Labor Day holiday in early September. The festival takes place on the playa of the Black Rock Desert in Nevada, 90 miles (150 km) north-northeast of Reno, though the specific location on the playa changes from year to year. The temporary city is put forth as an experiment in community, radical self expression, and radical self reliance. The culmination of the event occurs on the sixth day of the event, Saturday, when a large wooden sculpture of a man is burned (video below).

Here’s a teaser of a video about the Burning Man festival in 2006: “Psyche-conscious, Subconscious & Unconscious”. Song by Moby.
