Ventriloquist on Cross Hopes to Stay 15 Days in Mexico

A 2-year-old ventriloquist known as Tagore in Reynosa Mexico aims to remain nailed to a cross for 15 days to bear pain he endured as a child. He says he will donate 10 percent to the Catholic Church and claims church officials approved the exhibit, though a local priest denies authorization. The display drew about 5000 spectators since Sunday, with Tagore’s real name Irenio Garcia Carmona and his cross set in a rented room near the bull ring.
