The Beauty of Molten Iron

In Nuanquan, China there is a unique tradition dating back about 500 years to celebrate the Lantern Festival. Instead of using fireworks they celebrate it by using molten iron which is then flung at a wall creating a cascade of sparks.

What do they use for protection?  Sheep skins and a hat…
