There are so many interesting and ancient customs to be found in Iran. Of the typical one's can be named: Norouz and Chaharshanbe suri (Wednesday celebration). Through the years Chaharshanbeh suri has lived and delivered to our generation but this ten gin has gone through some changes by the youth's interests and explosive devices.
The old tradition of jumping over fire as sign of relief from all years depression and gathering together has gone under some changes. At Wednesday celebration the sky of many Iranian cities including the capital, Tehran is lighter than daylight. Fire crackers blow everywhere and the sparklers lighten up the sky. This joy along with its anxiety and enjoyment brings in some degree of danger. People all over Iran strongly criticize the who Celebration thing but they wouldn't bother to do anything for declining the danger but ignoring the whole custom.
As for myself, a young Iranian, however I prefer staying home rather than taking the risk of getting hurt. I jump over a match light to perform the costume and get rid of all my stress, pressure of the past year.
