'Mad Max Himself'
People always find a good excuse for a good party. These guys seem to lead the way. Along with fun they also bring some strong messages to powers that are. While others dress up like honeybees, butterflies, queens and fairies, they bring along a sign with a message that local understand instantly. An explanation needed for others. It says: 'The Arrival of Croats' which is illustrated by an old painting of the same title, and 'The Departure of Croats' is what it says underneath coupled with a scene from the last Mad Max movie. Not a too positive outlook on the future, eh?
Anyway, as they march through the town, loud music is playing from the truck loaded with loudspeakers. 'Highway to hell', sounds quite appropriate to shout out the initial idea, regarding the economic and political state of affairs. :D What are grand parties for but to express thoughts and ease up the tension, eh?
The prisoners behind the truck are being dragged along. Grannies are enjoying themselves big time and cannot stop laughing. I like the fact that they made a role for everyone, left out no one who wanted to participate in this carnival. Thumbs up!
Mad Max himself is riding a 20mm AA gun. What a sight. This guy seriously made me laugh. It's not just a setup, check out his looks, a perfect fit for the role. I've done quite a bit of movie casting myself, and this guy is a seriously good choice.
His royal guard is riding just behind him. This guy looks like an undercover secret service spook. But huuushhh... They are all undercover right now pretending to be Max's bodyguards.
A truckload of pretty women is an unavoidable sight if you've ever travelled in Croatia... :D
The youngest Mad Max fan is right here. I'm not so sure that this baby girl can even pronounce 'Mad Max' or that she's watched any of the four parts but she's already a major attraction. :D
Enjoy your day! :-)

Crazy! Those Croatians really know how to run a costume party!
After seeing these photos I was convinced in my yesterday's words "the guys were perfectly prepared" :)
Stylistics resembles a crazy max from different parts of the film, rather than from one.
I like how gay grandmothers led a prisoner who previously seemed to be a thick banker :) in the post-apocalyptic world there is no place for such people :)
You Croats are funny people :)
Have a nice day
Grabbing my stuff and heading to Croatia right now, i'll bring my truck
hahaaha
Wow highway to hell, it looks like a scene from the mad max film. You should watch it.
It sounds like my kind of place: pretty girls by the truck load. Actually, at my age, pursuit is not an option. But as a spectator it is wonderful.
I love Max. But I could melt at the star of the show.
Thanks for another great glimpse into your culture!
What an amazing yet interesting parade lol
Yes the little girl is a major attraction..
Can I join the pretty woman in the truck.. If I am pretty hahaha...I will be the ugly witch :)

@velimir as a fan of the Mad Max saga i can imagine those guys were having great time! But absolutely not a great pucture for the future! Amazing job as allways!
Haha, this is really fantastic. :) This is on Samobor fašnik, right? I performed there last sunday with a circus street show, made a post about it. I'll perform again this saturday.
Lijepi pozdrav iz Zagreba!
This is truly an adventure of a sort - the carnival, the fun, the laughter in the air, the singing and the dancing - are fit enough to make participants and onlookers enjoy it.
Thank you @velimir for your steady ability to readily create something unique from even ordinary situations - your words and photographs help to bring the fun alive!

Wow, that looks brilliant! Great to see so many people make an effort.
Karnava is one way that people can be open to each other about what is happening, or a natural condition. Where conditions require special attention from various parties.
wow .. cool man ..... Congratulations for your initiative ...

I really like the padded old-timey motorcycle helmet hat that the little girl is wearing at the bottom.
Wait -- all the little kids have motorcycle helmet hats!
