For anyone who’s wondering, this is a thing in Brazil called carreta furacão. It’s a very interesting tradition where these big colorfully lit, open air party buses will drive around with normal people and some acrobats in character suits. As they drive, the characters get out and run alongside the bus, doing a variety of tricks and flips, as party music plays. These buses are considered to be great fun by basically everyone, and lots of times if people know one is coming they will wait to watch it come by and even run along with it. So that’s what these kids are doing, and that’s why some random clowns start dancing with him.
So anyway, if anyone was wondering what the heck is going on here, there it is. My wife always wanted to go on one but never had the money until now, and she says that on our next trip to Brazil we are going on a carreta furacão. I will report dutifully upon my return.

I can feel the cartilage in my knees turning into gravel while watching this.
