World Sword Swallowers Day makes for a riveting February 25th each year if you’re a fan of the circus or sporting extreme hobbies. Next to a cyanide pill, swords are probably the most gruesome and impractical object a person could swallow. The Sword Swallowers Association International (SSAI) celebrated the first World Sword Swallowers Day in 2008 to pay homage to this extreme art form.

Sword swallowing has deep cultural roots in South Asia. The first recorded sword swallowers were the shaman priests and fakirs responsible for snake handling, fire-walking, and religious practices that reinforced asceticism. India has the world’s earliest written record of a sword swallower from 4000 years ago, as Asia entered the Late Bronze Age.

It is probably best to emphasize to revelers that sword swallowing is art, not a party trick. The SSAI says that you have to let a sword of at least 16 inches in length pass through your esophageal track into your stomach before you can call yourself a sword swallower, which takes years of safe practice and dedication to perfect.
