Mareke Giri
text:
Mareke Giri is a type of traditional street performance in Iran. The Mareke Gir is a person who entertains people with his "special powers", such as breaking chains with his arms, breaking stones with his hands, handling big cats, and/or handling snakes. Mareke Giri are free shows in public locations; viewers will give the performer some money to encourage them. Occasionally the shows will have a mix religious undertones, and sometimes an element of fraud will occur.
