Groom covered in dog's blood in Chinese wedding tradition

A bizarre video has emerged from China of wedding attendees pouring dog blood onto the groom.

The video, captured in Ankang, Anhui Province last Sunday, shows the groom - stripped from his clothes - being taped to a tree while people throw dog's blood at him and spray him with a fire extinguisher.

According to local reports, this unusual performance is a wedding tradition in the area.
