On the paradise islands of the South Pacific, from ancient times to the present day, the aborigines, performing religious rites, voluntarily subject themselves to unnatural and painful trials. Why do the natives of Oceania subject themselves to incredible torment, disfiguring their bodies? What causes them to go through acute pain and injury? In this series we will try to find an explanation for the ancient and bizarre rituals of suffering and find out why they are still practiced today. We also explore the attraction of such phenomena as walking on fire and inflicting pain on oneself.
