Good Luck Baby Tossing
by Truthie 
I just saw this on CNN and had to find a clip of it on YouTube. First you'll hear about stupid state troopers in my home state, then some giant squid and then.. brace yourselves and prepare to see babies tossed off the roof of a temple in India as part of a good luck ritual. Tossing the babies is supposed to improve their health and bring good luck and the priest has never missed... yet. Isn't that comforting?
My baby will just have to remain unlucky and rely on brains to get him through life instead.

There is no possible way that is safe for a baby. If that was in North America those people would be under arrest.

I can't believe that in 500 years they say not one baby has been injured. There is no way this should be happening to those babies. Did you see them bounce??? What about trauma like shaken baby syndrome?

Reminds me of the Order of Leaping Beryllian Nuns from the Peter Cook & Dudley Moore 1967 movie, Bedazzled (since remade with Liz Hurley)

N.B.
Dudley's raspberries blown are meant to drag him back to his real life.
Explanation of the nuns' order at 3.00. Leaping nuns at 5.30
