The Fire Yogi

About this title

Witness a timeless rite of healing and purification as a 63-year-old yogi reclines in a bed of fire. This documentary reveals the mental and physical discipline that allows him to perform this stunning act. Confounding modern science, the yogi subsists on two bananas, a glass of milk and a trickle of water each day, deriving strength from meditation and breathing techniques. The result is the ability to endure, unharmed, a centuries-old ritual.
