I love learning about these customs that go 'way back yet continue!!

Me too!!

I wrote firemen on purpose. I don`t suppose they will allow women to take part in it in the nearest future. (:


They simulate fainting in the church to celebrate the resurrection (according to a biblical story, guards who were standing by the grave fainted).
