Once a year, generally on a cold and rainy night (they can pick 'em; this was the only rainy night for weeks this winter) our local fire eaters congregate at the Trocadero, across the Seine from the Tour Eiffel, and enjoy a revel that looks like one of Marlon Brando's big scenes in Apocalyse Now.

This year was no different.

 

 

At least this was one event at which you could warm your hands.

 

 

 

 

 

The most important caution: Don't INhale.
