    At least 21 treated for burns after trying to walk on coals at Tony Robbins event

    Published July 21, 2012

    Fire officials in California say at least 21 people were treated for burns after attendees of an event for motivational speaker Tony Robbins tried to walk on hot coals.
    The San Jose Mercury News reports that at least three people went to a hospital and most suffered second- or third-degree burns.
    Jonathan Correll, 25, told the paper that he heard "screams of agony."
    "It was people seriously hurting, like they were being tortured," he told the paper. "First one person, then a couple minutes later another one, and there was just a line of people walking on that fire. It was just bizarre, man."

    Obviously, Tony Robbins used his hypnotic powers to convince these poor souls to walk across fire.[/QUOTE]

    I used to like some of Tonys stuff back in the day. Had some good insight into human behavior. He's been doing firewalks for 20 years though... I wonder why its news now?
