Great wheel
In Myanmar (Burma), people love great wheels, and there are a lot of them.
But these are not powered by electricity. Young men have to climb on top of them and, using only their weight and gravity, manage to make the machine move. This technic requiers a lot of skills and is very dangerous, yet those guys do it every night, for money and the amusement of the customers.
I took this picture on a cool night, spent in a local festival near Hpa-An (south Myanmar).
