Bogeyman forecasts hot summer

Switzerland can look forward to a great summer– if Zurich’s giant exploding bogeyman – the Böögg - is to be believed. In the traditional Sechseläuten ceremony in Zurich the head exploded quicker than in previous years. The böögg’s head is stuffed with firecrackers and perched on top of a huge pyre. It is said that the less time it takes for his head to explode, the better the summer will be. This year it exploded after seven minutes and 23 seconds.
