Fire Eaters
Lebanese fire eaters perform in the Gemmayze area in the heart of Beirut late 04 July 2007 as part of a campaign to revive night life in the fashionable area not far from where anti-government opposition parties have been camping for the past eight months. Gemmayze, once vibrant with shops and cafes, is now struggling to cope with a drastic fall in passing trade and diving sales. The area has been abandoned by revelers in favor of roof top bars to which Beirutis have flocked for fear of recent bomb at attacks at street level. (Ousama Ayoub, AFP / Getty Images)
