Last Monday of May in a small English locality near Gloucester, a cheese rolling competition is held where a cheese is rolled down a hill and participants chase it to catch it. The last Monday of August in Llanwrtyd Wells, Wales, the World Marsh Diving Championship takes place where brave divers are thrown into a 55-meter long marsh armed with only fins and snorkels, with the last to emerge winning a prize. Every July 4th in the small Finnish village of Sonkajärvi, the World Wife-Carrying Championship is held where men carry women weighing over 17 kilograms in various styles across a wet and muddy obstacle course, with penalties for dropping the wife.
