wicked crazy!

This scene is awesome.

The only scene where DB cracks a smile in the entire film.

Eleggua / Elegua/Papa Legba: Messenger, Opener of the Way, Trickster, Gatekeeper to the Spirit World Saint Simon Peter San Martin (Caballero) Saint Anthony (of Padua) El Nino de Atocha Saint Expedite Saint Michael Archangel

@supervirtuouswoman no

@supervirtuouswoman no he is not

As others have said, papa Legba is the intermidiary between our world and that of the loa. Papa Legba is associated with Saint Peter. You go through Papa Legba if you want to talk to any of the Loa.

He's a spirit, they say he's the one to hold the key to the doors of anything. Thus voodooists will ask for his permission to pass whenever they want to undertake something.

catholicism made it BETTER!

Well I see him as a "Pai-de-Santo" a kind of african prayer,yeha!! have a bunch of cultural stuff undertsood about it,but, try understand someone trying to reach God to give ya some good will,culture,diverse.. to us,but it's still culture! Personaly dislike,but respect

Papa legba acts as an communicator between mortals and Loas ( different deities in the religion). he speaks all of the languages of the world, and is almost always invoked before any attempt at communicating with the other loas

Is Papa Legba the devil?

I really really like this song.

And before? compare with Egyptian culture and worship...compares to proto-aramean mythology...read about migration into west africa. Voodoo came from east of africa where humanity begun Pls read your bible

Wow... So many things backwards in one comment, I wouldn't know where to start.

look at all the shit he got off ebay

Just making a World of Warcraft reference, the trolls say that. :)

Why?

voodoo from west africa vodun it is spelled differently in different parts of Africa such Togo and ghana where you'll see vodon, vodoun, voodoo! the word means "spirits' coming from West Africa...the haitian vodun is similar to the west african vodun...but due to colonization and the arrival of catholic influences haitian vodun took a detour...but it remains the strongest vodun in the world because of secrecies and things that the world is yet to understand.

@thomasodi Actually Voudoo come from a Fon word meaning "spirit".

Stay away from da voodoo.

VOODOO came from creole word VO-DOU that is in french VEAU D'OR meaning GOLDEN CALF. This is remnant of Egypto-Canaan knwoledge In Voodoo main god name is DAM-BAAL-AH Lord Baal Connect the dots...One day they will remember who they trully are and come back to Yahuwah (YHWH-GOD) and the covenant with Yehushuah (Jesus) Help them remember: youtube V1 Jewsish rabbis confirms that israel went in Africa V2 Millions Israelites MIGRATE INTO AFRICA V5 In Africa we speak the ancient hebrew

wow, i always thought this was a widespread panic song.

great great movie

uomoimmaginario1979: If I'm not mistaken, that's Spalding Gray.
