Fired Paraguayan bus drivers crucify themselves in protest

Eight bus drivers crucify themselves after getting fired in the city of Luque, Paraguay.
Eight bus drivers crucify themselves after getting fired in the city of Luque, Paraguay.

They're lying on top of wooden crosses arranged flat on the ground.
Passers-by who approach them to get a closer look cringe when they see their hands. The protesters have driven nails into the flesh of their palms between their middle and index fingers, nails that then go straight into planks of wood.
The protesters are eight bus drivers who were fired from their jobs two months ago.
