Sword Swallowing in the Middle East

Posted by dan | Filed under Have Sword Will Travel, live appearances

I had a GREAT time performing this past week at the Eid al-Adha festival in Doha, Qatar in the Middle East! What a life-changing experience!

Let me take you a quick recap with a few photos (sorry I didn’t take many - I’m just learning to use the camera on my new Blackberry phone!).

Here’s a quick video clip I shot of a skeptical sword shop owner who didn’t believe sword swallowing was really real. I had him remove the sword, and he BELIEVED! Ended up buying a cool curved shamshir sword from him at a great price!
