Masai warrior. Awesome guys! We have a lot to learn from their way of life. The hat he's wearing is actually a lion's mane. It is tradition that in order to become a Masai warrior, you must go out into the bush for two months and survive off of the land. When the two months are over, you need to come back with proof that you have killed a lion. This guy brought back this hat and let me wear it. As cool as that sounds, too many lions are dying, which isn't very cool. But, these guys were studs nonetheless
