Water Baptisms can take various approaches - some churches sprinkle, some immerse, but I can guarantee you've never seen anything like this one from Canada!
That’s a typical Orthodox baptism. The narrator identified it as Greek Orthodox. In all fairness (*sarcasm ON*) the priest may have been snorting cocaine just before the ceremony. Or maybe he drank a whole pot of coffee and snorted cocaine (*sarcasm OFF*). Typical Orthodox baptisms are not so violent.
I would suggest to this priest that he calm down with a bottle of ouzo before his next baptism.

Well, Flie, I've seen sprinkling, dunking - and now, near DROWNING. That kid must have been howling as he hears the Latin, "In the name of the Father," glub, "the Son," blub, "and the Holy Ghost," glub-blub.

Since you live in the USA , do you think Baptism by water pistol could be something guaranteed by the Second Amendment ?

Very clever idea, Flie. But hey, get enough NRA lawyers on it - and ya just never know!
