Daniel Mauermann‘s “Cuba People” photoset on Flickr includes many striking images, but none more striking than this. As Daniel explains in an e-mail:
The pierced guy is a poor handicapped who once decided to make good money putting as much needles in his head as possible. Every day he is standing in Calle Obispo, the main tourist street in Havana, and claims one dollar per photo. He is quite famous – guess why. I don't know his name.
