Footbinding was a custom practised on young females for approximately one thousand years in China, beginning in the 10th century and ending in the early 20th century. In Chinese foot binding, young girls’ feet, usually at age 6 but often earlier, were wrapped in tight bandages so that they could not grow and develop normally; they would, instead, break and become highly deformed, not growing past 4-6 inches (10-15 cm). Today, it is a prominent cause of disability among some elderly Chinese women. First, each foot would be soaked in a warm mixture of herbs and animal blood. 

This concoction caused any necrotised flesh to fall off. Then her toenails were cut back as far as possible to prevent ingrowth and subsequent infections. To prepare her for what was to come next the girl’s feet were delicately massaged. Silk or cotton bandages, ten feet long and two inches wide, were prepared by soaking in the same blood and herb mix as before.

Each of the toes were then broken and wrapped in the wet bandages, which would constrict when drying, and pulled tightly downwards toward the heel. There may have been deep cuts made in the sole to facilitate this. 

2.Living with the dead.
(This is soo creepy i almost couldn't sleep after seeing the photos...enjoy the creepiness. lol)

Certain ethnic groups in the Toraja district of Indonesia practice a ritual of living with the corpses of their loved ones for months before burying them. The corpse is draped in special garbs and kept safe in a separate room in the house until the body can be properly buried. This ritual, though, has less to do with tradition and more so with funds; burials and funerals are expensive and can take years to save up for.


continue to see some extremely weird photos after the cut..viewer's discretion is highly recommended.
