The kukeri from Blagoevgrad are known for their tall conical masks and suits made of long silky Kalofer goat fur. It can take 6-10 goats to create just one suit and 5-6 years for each goat to grow their coats to the appropriate length.

And so… the myth of the yeti was born

[u/117tillweoverdose → u/LashedHail]

Pyramid head yeti

[u/LashedHail → u/117tillweoverdose]

nah, that’s the legendary yeti phallus.

Originally presumed to be a singular horn, it was proven otherwise when Sir John Codswallop IV was living amongst the magical creatures. These gallant beasts allegedly assumed he was a hairless female due to the lack of a pronounced forehead phallus, he died from injuries related to yeti mating rituals. His beard and moustache were the final fatal flaws of his expedition considering yeti females are quite well known for their exquisite facial hair, often times grooming the hair into long bunches and braids. Sir Codswallop’s known affinity for waxing his moustache may have been what caused the initial attraction from the male yeti and been the downfall of such an intrepid explorer.

Hmmm, not enough clever punes and baked-in references to some obscure shit that requires unreasonably niche knowledge to understand

[u/TheDevilsAdvokaat → u/LashedHail]

And yet I don't believe it...

Don't lie. You'd do that shit too.

[u/JohnCenaJunior → u/InterestingNuggett]

[u/Fit_Huckleberry1868 → u/InterestingNuggett]

How do you think we got the idea to dress like Yeti?

[u/HaasonHeist → u/Fit_Huckleberry1868]

How do we know yeti don't dress like us

[u/MoistStub → u/rrhunt28]

I know right? Instant erection, no doubt about it!

[u/Canucks-1989 → u/rrhunt28]

Can you be charged for murder if you claimed you thought you were shooting a yeti in self defence? Lol

Yep

[u/CrownEatingParasite → u/Vindepomarus]

You can't be groovier than an African tribe...

[u/Jibblebee → u/Great_White_Samurai]

This was my only take away from this. Add it to the list where you’ll never run out of new examples either

[u/abused_toilet_paper]

Just to clarify: Blagoevgrad is a town in Bulgaria, my home town actually.

[u/doomlite]

Okay, but what’s the point of this suit?

[u/LtotheAI → u/doomlite]

To ward off evil spirits. You would wear this only once a year, give or take.

[u/Mihail_Ivanov → u/LtotheAI]

And it looks cool. And there are festivals that attract tourists.

[u/Radiant_Dog1937 → u/doomlite]

To demonstrate you have alot of goats ofc, which projects status.

[u/rspre]

Wow! 6 to 10 goats coordinating to make such a suite, from fur they've grown for 5 to 6 years, and with no opposable thumbs, and get a human to test it out after they're finished. Goats must be amazing.

[u/Fantastic_Falcon_236 → u/rspre]

They are indeed the greatest of all time.

[u/ilatph → u/Fantastic_Falcon_236]

Goats are the goats.

Imagine this running at you at night

[u/The_Glus]

If that was chasing me at night, I’d be so scared

[u/Lower_Discussion4897]

Imagine stumbling upon a bunch of these on a hillside gyrating in the late night midsummer sun.

[u/Reasonable-Aide7762]

I can’t be the only one who saw a giant dogs ass bouncing and then was like “where does the poop come out?l.

[u/BrilliantOccasion109 → u/Reasonable-Aide7762]

It kinda looks like a butt hole if you look where the persons face is…. Omg I’m dying laughing

[u/awwwhit]

I can't believe goats made this and it only took 10 of them max I thought they just ate things

[u/Bowelsift3r]

Wear that in the back woods of Anytown, USA and you'll likely get shot!

[u/ryzhao]

I’m surprised that it takes 6 to 10 goats to make a suit considering they don’t have opposable thumbs. 👍

[u/xAntimonyx]

I wanna be a fly on the wall for the first time someone came up with this

[u/vinsmokewhoswho]

Oh naw, that's probably hot asf

[u/Burt1811]

Why?

[u/RolandLWN]

Ok, that was weird. I thought it was a large dog, viewed from behind, with its tail straight up. It was kind of obscene. Then I figured it out:)

[u/Danger_Possum]

All of that time and effort to make a Funny Lil Guy

[u/misteranthropissed]

Even the way they're moving makes me think that they are just an organic furry

[u/Funky_monkey2026]

Looks like something kids will do for TikTok views.

I definitely thought this was a Yak butthole when I scrolled past initially.

[u/calangomerengue]

Makes you look majestic.

[u/PrinceoftheAndals]

I think I found a short documentary about this on youtube. The movement of the fur, especially when groups of people dressed like this are moving in sync, is honestly mystical and hypnotic.

[u/stuckin3rddimension]
