    I don't know exactly what's going on here... the original caption is in German...

    actual caption: Indoonesische Elitesoldaten trinken im Juli während eines Überlebenstrainings im Dschungel in der Nähe von Karawang in West-Java das Blut einer Schlange. Die Soldaten trinken das Blut, um ihre Widerstandskraft gegen Schlangen zu erhöhen. Während der sechsmonatigen Elite-Ausbildung müssen sie auch mehrmals Schlangenbisse ertragen. (Foto: Beawiharta)

    but I'm sure we can come up with some of our own captions! have fun!

    I know a little German (he's sitting over there) and from what I can gather from the caption these are elite soldiers in the Indian army and this is some kind of training ritual where they have to drink the blood of the snake.

    Yeah, I think you're right. My German is pretty bad, but I might have figured that out if I had looked at the picture more carefully.
