Burning Man may be one of the unique festivals in American history. Every year since 1986, as many as 60,000 people have gathered in a makeshift village in Nevada's Black Rock Desert to celebrate art, life, and radical individuality.
Burning Man 2012 came to its awe-inspiring climax on Saturday night, as participants set fire to "The Man," a huge wooden effigy. While seeing a giant burning effigy is certainly bizarre, it's hardly the most interesting thing at the festival.
