Buzkashi, Afghanistan originally uploaded by Po Lo on 19 Mar ‘06, 4.03am CET PST.

Popular game similar to polo. The riders have to take a goat or more usually a cow claf carcass rid with it around a flag and come back to drop it in a circle. No teams no rules. It is very violent but exciting. I nearly got trampled a couple times taking pictures and last week I got crushed against a barrier by several horses. Hope you like the shots (more in my photos)

Extreme unicycle at the Trocadéro.

The guy was caught in mid-air as he jumped from one ramp to another, looking like he’s staying on top of the Montparnasse tower (a few kilometers in the back)
