About the sport
Men all over the world show their valiant prowess differently. Sometimes very strange and cruel manner:
Jumping over the camels (Yemen)
Increase in the average camel in the place where the hump - about 170 cm. This guy jumps directly through three.
Hammer Throw (Scotland)
Just imagine that you need to throw such a thing, by weight equal to two-year child at a distance of 76 meters.
Throwing trunk (Scotland)
Take tree trunk over six meters and heavier than 90 pounds and toss so that he rolled over in the air, and then fell to the ground, and on the other hand you have to be exactly the end of the log, which was originally at the top.
Football with a burning coconut (Indonesia)
The name speaks for itself.
Onabashira (Japan)
It's more of a festival than a sport. It takes place every six years. Cut away the 200-year-old pine and anyone can ride on her riding down the mountainside. Survival is not guaranteed.
Botaoshi or felling post (Japan)
One team of 75 people trying to blame the post, and the other (the same number) does not do that. As a result, there is now a massacre, where permitted by the rules of kicking, pushing, beating (including below the belt), and even biting.
Buzkashi or Kozlodranie (Afghanistan)
Something like polo, but here everyone plays against all, and instead of a ball used headless carcass of a goat. The goal of each player - grab a goat carcass and hold it as long as possible.
Calcio Fiorentino (Italy)
Throw the ball on the field, divided into two teams and arrange a massacre. Charles V did not say that it is "too cruel to be called a game, and not large enough to be considered a war".
Pacu Jawi or racing in the mud on the bull (Malaysia)
Racing is arranged immediately after harvesting rice filled with mud in the rice fields. Participants usually stand on wooden boards between two bulls.
