The Baby Jumping Festival of Castillo






Would you let someone jump over your infant like this?
Known as El Colacho in Spain, the Baby-Jumping Festival is a popular event that takes place in Castillo de Murcia near Burgos, every year since 1620. It’s basically all about infants laying on a blanket and adults dressed as devils jumping over them is a procession that’s supposed to cleanse the little ones of all evil doings.
