Remembering this guy who was running through the mud, juggling, and dressed as a jester while we waited out another rainstorm. Love to see people making the best out of tough situations and making people smile. Shoutout to everyone running through the mud juggling everything. Try to stay silly through it 🤹🏻♂️ @burningman #burningman #blackrockcity #thankslarry
“I’ve been hit. I’ve been hit. I’ve been hit.”
British photojournalist Nick Stern @plasticjesus was shot by police while covering anti-ICE protests in Los Angeles. A 40mm flashbang round tore into his leg — a weapon designed to explode above a crowd, not inside someone’s body.
If it had detonated, he could have lost his leg. Or worse.
This is his Close Call.
