Is This Thai Yogi Really Meditating In Boiling Oil

The Thai Yogi in the Hot Seat is an event that took place on February 6, 2011 at the temple of Wat Tanak near Chiang Mai, Thailand. I called him a yogi, but actually in Thailand they are called Luesii. His name is Luesii Sombet. He has been doing this demonstration a number of times in several different temples in Thailand, and he is well known for that. Obviously the herbal mixture reduces the heat of the boiling oil where he is sitting to some degree. Who can blame hi
