Adult men change their red and yellow suits and jump over the babies. An unknown ritual is taking place in the autonomous region of Castile and Leon in north-west Spain since 1620. The idea of ​​El Colacho is that the jumpers, dressed in devilish suits with whips and clubs, personify satanic evil. When they jump, evil follows them, and the souls of babies are cleaned.

Despite the fact that the festival "Jumping through children" is considered one of the most dangerous in the world, for all its centuries-old history, no baby has suffered.

Adult viewers are also given the chance to "cleanse" if the red and yellow "devil" contrives and hits them with a whip during the procession through the city, which precedes "Jumping through children."
