Every year on Good Friday, the people of San Fernando, Pampanga in Philippines perform a re-enactment of the crucifiction.
The volunteers carry a cross across the town since the morning until the crucifiction spot, at the point marked here, that the will reach shortly after 13:00.
The volunteers are actually nailed to the wood, where thay will stay a five to ten minutes. A medical team will recieve them afterward. Since the scene only allows for three characters, the re-enactment will be performed several times to endulge all the voluteers.
This is performed outside of the Church authority.
