A bold and bare traveler is experiencing the world in all its glory – one naked handstand at a time!
The anonymous “Naked Handstander” has stripped down and showed off his impeccable form in 17 different countries across the globe, Caters News Agency reports.
Supporting his weight on two hands while stretching his legs towards the sky – the nude vagabond proudly spreads his limbs like a gallant starfish – taking it all in while wearing only his birthday suit.
The exhibitionist has spent the last five years traipsing across China, Australia, the Netherlands, Iceland, Norway, Hungary, England and the US to capture his buck-naked handstands. He has shared all of his “au naturel” shots on his blog, nakedhandstander.com.
The brazen handstands are, believe it or not, supposed to help raise awareness for “planned obsolescence,” which is the “deliberate shortening of a product’s useful life in order to force the consumer to buy or ‘upgrade’ over and over and over again,” according to the blog.
“It’s an awful waste of resources, destroys the environment, pollutes and makes our planet a more hostile environment for us to live in,” the bare-skinned journeyer writes. “Who wants that?”
The list of iconic locations that have seen the exposed explorer disrobe and mount up have been quite impressive, according to Caters.
Check it out as he busts a precise handstand in the shadow of the magnificent Ayres Rocks in Australia. Feast your eyes as the man let’s it all hang out on frozen Lake Tjornin in Iceland, during a frigid New Year’s Day.
Look on in amazement while he fights gravity on the Great Wall of China, or on a bridge over a busy waterway in Amsterdam.
No sight is safe.
