At the Cologne carnival
Geissens celebrate carnival in bulletproof vests
As usual, Rose Monday was celebrated in Cologne with a spectacular carnival parade - including the Geissens, known from the reality TV show "Die Geissens - Eine schrecklich glamouröse Familie". But the family members wore bulletproof vests under their carnival costumes!
Kronen Zeitung als bevorzugte Google-Quelle hinzufügen The reason: the Cologne Rose Monday parade was overshadowed by threats of attack, the event was marked by recent acts of violence and a tense security situation.
The police had a strong presence along the entire route. However, some prominent guests opted for additional protective measures.
Robert, Carmen, Davina, Shania and Reinhold Geiss, for example, took a seat on the train conductor's car. They were accompanied by security personnel and bulletproof vests under their jackets.
Only Robert - although born in Cologne, it was a first for him at the Rose Monday parade and he was "very excited" to see what was in store for him - did without additional protection.
Robert "defends himself"
"I'm defending myself," he said with a laugh. His wife, meanwhile, hoped for "joy, love, peace and security".
