Disabled people from all over Bulgaria gathered Saturday evening for a ball night of laughs, dancing and talent showing in Sofia.

The national ball of the disabled is an important step towards building a tolerant society in the country, organizers from the Centre for Psychological Studies believe.

During the ball, participants showed that they are more daring than many of the people who have no health problems at all, as the folklore group of the hearing-impaired daringly walked on live coals.

The "Suns on Wheelchairs" group showed off their dexterity with break and folklore dances.
