Wasn't there a movie about this starring Kirk Douglas called Cactus Jacksie ???
Interestingly the word "cactus" or "cacti" is derived from the Kannada (not Canada) language, predominate in parts of what is modern day India. In the Kannada language cacti is actually "kyasiti", so named due to a religious practice where devout followers sit on a cactus or cacti until the pain leads to visions that are thought to provide insight into the resolution of deep philosophical questions linked to the meaning of life.
