Vice's new travel series 'All the Wrong Places' has released its latest episode titled 'Dances with Scissors,' an intriguing and at times shocking look into the dangerous practice of scissor dancing in Peru. Located 3,500m above sea-level in the Peruvian Andes, this new episode explores the ancient tradition and presents it in a captivating manner that is inaccessible to most.
The documentary-style series, which can be seen online at VICE.com, provides a window into an incredible world which in this case involves hammering nails into their noses, stab rods into their tongues and dart cacti into each others' flesh. All the Wrong Places is a creative partnership between VICE and MINI and will travel to Japan, South Africa, Sweden and Jamaica in addition to Peru.
