Rubbish!
If person collect casualty e go enta anoda story... risking your life FOOLISHLY & calling it fun abi na tradition. undecided

Tradition is what you curse to this extent. Now that westernization has taken the place of tradition What benefit do we Nigerian derive other than "I want to be altitude" of our young minds. Try to picture if the traditional values culture and norms are fully embedded in our so called Constitution, who will try dear the consequences of bad actions. Tradition where taboos and abominations are keys that structure the behaviour of individuals.
China that now grow politically and economically never abandoned their traditional culture.
Colonialism/neo colonialism and westernization is fully working within the system and that is the problem we've been having all along. Think like a Nigerian and not a WESTERN wanna be..!!!

You have not spoken well my friend. Have you ever watched the Europeans perform acrobatics with bikes? What can be more dangerous than that? What about mountain climbing? Risk taking has always been part of mankind's endeavours. As ling as it's not criminal in nature, you have no right whatsoever to judge.

...and that bamboo stick will never ever break. No wonder it's being considered an alternative to conventional steel reinforcement in construction.

Below are Captivating videos of some farmers in Badagry, Lagos, performing the Ijo Agbe (calabash dance) which involves climbing a bamboo stick and 'dancing' on the stick. Watch below;

Awesome videos! grin

The bamboo is obviously very strong.
The acrobatic show makes for good entertainment in between farm work.
