Boxers Wear Fireworks in Novel Bout
Outlined in flame, two asbestos-clad boxers staged a spectacular bout during a recent pyrotechnic display in London, England. Blazing fireworks, attached to the suits of the two performers on jointed frames to permit them freedom of movement, glowed as they sparred in the dark.
Good thing they were safe inside those asbestos suits.
