cut off his d!ck.
I've looked at some performers and none seem to be as weird as Chris Burden. First of all he cut off his penis. But, I'll get back to that. His performances were "controversial." He once laid under a table of glass in a museum and didn't talk until museum guard put a pitcher of water on the glass. He was there for 45 hours. He also nailed himself to the hood of a car. He's weird. Why would you ever do that to yourself? And he cut off his penis! Why?! I want to know why that is considered art! And, believe it or not, he was a college professor at the University of California. Who would hire this guy? Though... he is one of my favorites. He's different, crazy, I like to see things I've never seen before, as ridiculous as his performances are. This is something he did that was called shot. one called "Shoot" where his buddy shot him in the arm with a rifle. Sounds like college professor material to me!
