What was this scene about?

I saw the trailer for FOD 1 and it shows what looks like to be some Southern Pentacostal revival or something like that. Some guy leans into flames and it does not hurt him. What is that about? It also looks to show a girl screaming while watching him do that. Are they part of the same clip and why was she screaming?

Any ideas?

Yeah, that was the first one, and you seem to be right on the money about what it was.

How would that fit into FOD?

FOD had weird insights on other cultures. If I find the scene again, I'll see if it says more about it.

Thanks. I have always wondered.

Yeah, the movies for sure are on Youtube. So if you want, you can revisit it for yourself.
