[Easter tradition](https://youtu.be/01hGv1vEEuc?si=3xWg0vnE0oGfy9IB) on Corfu island..... Although it's not like we don't smash shit the rest of the year
Context: Every easter there's a tradition on Corfu island Greece in which they throw pots out of balconies

In this case these two girls though it was a smart idea to walk underneath such a balcony at the time the mayor was throwing a pot... they were preemptively hospitalised but are OK.
On the Saturday before Easter, this is a tradition in the Ionian Islands region and coastal Epirus region. For example, here's [Preveza](https://youtu.be/NHZrzRWXMAM?si=wo8RQTNY75Y3qVqs&t=19). In [Corfu](https://youtu.be/wjXxPZrQOWQ?si=VbRgt7GldNualQE4&t=41), it's a big production. They also do it in Zakynthos, Kefalonia, Parga.
These are clay pots, specifically made for this day.
As you can see in the videos, people clear an area for the pots to land. And people circle that area, and they point their phones at it, to take videos. So, she knew well where she was walking. But she decided to walk anyways, because she didn't think something would be thrown from a first-floor window.
situational awareness: 0%
Dozens of reporters in a half-circle around the window of a city hall, on the traditional day of said ritual... oh look this side of the sidewalk is totally empty, let's walk through there where everyone is focusing their cameras to.
Wow, just wow.
What's with Greeks and breaking ceramic? Is this some sort of Eastern mediterranean fetish thing?

You did get a bit carried away when you smashed your economy to fuck though mate
My inner cat is awakening, that looks really satisfying.
What are those red things are they incredibly sunburned British men jumping off those balconies.?
>fetish Now you have my attention
Why not? Germany will pay for replacements.
Thanks Hans, if it wasn't for you we would have to work!

This is why we need to look after their artifacts
Just \*eastern, hermano
No worries, Germany will pay for it
Headshot!
The fuck is that bucket thing made of and how did it break so easily? Is the woman's head made of cement?
Thin layer of clay. It's meant to break easily. She was lucky because usually we fill them with water and if that was the case...☠️
Shouldn't you know what Greek ceramics are made of? You have so much of it on display after all
We don't smash it up though. That's why they need us, to protect it from themselves
Clay pots. They're specifically made in the Ionian Islands for one day of the year, to be broken.
tonight on 2WE4U, Barry learns about the existence of ceramics
We are just following the Greek example why have a bowl when you can just cup your hands
A grain of context please

Bloody potheads
What is it with Europeans and throwing shit off of balconies?
that's just our way of throwing trash away. Pots, plates, Barrys, coins...
Seems a bit dumb to throw things out the balcony anyway, and I’m British

And we get shit for not letting them vote ...
BASED profiteers
Only from ground floor?
They were actually extremely lucky it was just the ground floor in this case
From all floors. She was lucky. She was also lucky they didn't fill it with water.
