My flimsy shoes have soaked through and my feet are freezing cold. Rainwater is running down the back of my neck. Shivering and shaking, my teeth chatter. I'm glaring at a man balancing on a folding chair, a bucket tied to his ankle. Here is the routine. He cuts open a packet of salt and pours it into the bucket. Then he balances on the chair and waits for the salt to pour out. Then he gets down, gets another packet of salt and repeats the process. A sensation of dread dawns upon me as I calculate that he has maybe fifteen minutes to go until he's out of salt. I realise numbly that I have no sensation in my toes.
