  • A pavement is awash in blood as families butcher a cow in preparation for the Eid al-Adha annual religious festival in Dhaka, Bangladesh. Bangladesh has the world's fourth largest Muslim population, and during the three days of Eid al-Adha, the Festival of Sacrifice, Dhaka's streets run red with the blood of thousands of butchered cattle. The feast comes at the conclusion of the Hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage to Mecca. In both the Koran and the Bible, God told the prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son to show supreme obedience to Allah (God). At the last moment, his son was spared and Ibrahim was allowed to sacrifice a ram instead. In Dhaka, as in the rest of the Muslim world, Eid al- Adha commemorates this tale, and the meat of the sacrificed animals is distributed to relatives, friends, and the poor.

  • Peter Menzel's first reaction to eating a live jumil, or flying stink bug (Euchistus taxcoensis), at the Jumil Festival. The insect attempted to escape from his mouth.

  • Van de Graaff generator display at the Franklin Institute in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania . Pamela Gross demonstrates static electricity. A Van de Graaff generator is an electrostatic generator used to produce a high voltage, usually in the megavolt range. Physicist Robert J. Van de Graaff invented it. The generator creates a negative charge of static electricity. When the girl touches the dome the charge passes from the dome (where it would otherwise be stored) on to her hands, and through to her hair. As the individual hairs become charged they repel each other, causing them to stand on end.  MODEL RELEASED (1991)
