"The Ocho" - DavidGuetta9, on 10/19/2008, -0/+16Ok free walking and free running are two completely different things. Runners don't wear "soap shoes".
- ScottMcIntyre, on 10/19/2008, -0/+16The clip of camel wrestling looks strange- apparently the males are specially bred and sent into the ring to do battle for a frisky lady camel. The Turkish guys seem to enjoy it.
QFA:"Because of the presence of a camel-babe, the male camels often get incredibly aroused, which culminates in a lot of viscous spittle and excitable urine being sprayed around the arena. For some reason, ringside seats never sell that well." - Sublex, on 10/19/2008, -0/+14Did the author of this article just call Trampoline Volleyball "baffling"?
Bet he's just jealous--the idea's genius. - robjohnston, on 10/19/2008, -0/+12#5 - mother and child onlookers. Facial Expressions are priceless!
- Wakkyweed, on 10/19/2008, -0/+9I once heard a British comedian refer to an expensive wine as being "like a sublime weasel in my underpants."
He must have been a fan of ferret legging. - MrWally, on 10/19/2008, -0/+8Shin Kicking is a SPORT?
Damn. I never knew I was athletic. - mickstephenson, on 10/19/2008, -1/+8The only good sport that came out of America is basketball, and that was invented by a Canadian
- jacobu9, on 10/19/2008, -0/+6Every planet has its own weird customs. About a year before we met, I spent six weeks on a moon where the principal form of recreation was juggling geese. My hand to God. Baby geese. Goslings. They were juggled.
- shadowmanjack, on 10/19/2008, -0/+5Free running (or Parkour) is about finding interesting routes through environment by performing acrobatic tricks/jumps and navigating obstacles. Free "walking" is what kids with "soap shoes" do because they're too lazy/inept to excel at skateboarding or BMX.
- ImYourRealDad, on 10/19/2008, -0/+5Lacrosse and volleyball, too.
- wunksta, on 10/19/2008, -0/+4what about log riding?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4hAFu4DUnk
it beats all of them AND its from japan - skywake, on 10/19/2008, -0/+4cricket?
... just because you yanks suck at it
although so do the English
:P - inactive, on 10/19/2008, -0/+4Women's beach trampoline volleyball.. now that's a sport I want to see.
- inactive, on 10/19/2008, -0/+4tennis anyone?
- magusg, on 10/19/2008, -1/+4What about curling?
- fuckingusername, on 10/19/2008, -0/+3in the top left picture
Is that guy playing pocket pool with a ferret ? - nuketrap, on 10/19/2008, -0/+3LOL Those are awesome. Bossaball, we actually had that at my school, it was so ***** dangerous, you had to jump 5 metres to get above the net to do a spike, I am suprised no one was ever injured, since the court was 10m in the ground and the edges of the trampoline edges weren't covered.
- growingpiles, on 10/19/2008, -0/+3What?!
Football, tennis, badminton, squash, cricket and of course, the most awesome of all sports ever: Rugby.
And if by 'English' you really mean 'British', golf can be included too. Invented by the Scots.
Us Brits rule at inventing sports, we're just rubbish at winning them.
Oh and cheese rolling should have made it to the list.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8tm5La2Kzyw - ShoeSh1ne, on 10/19/2008, -0/+3Um, false.
That net is like 3 feet off the ground. - Ramble, on 10/19/2008, -0/+3Are you kidding? Shin kicking looks awesome.
- supermanly, on 10/19/2008, -0/+2Free running is parkour right? As in Mirror's Edge?
But the grinding on rails with shoes is almost as gay as Heelys. - keviniskool, on 10/19/2008, -0/+2Sonic does. Seriously, that is the first thing I thought about when I saw soap shoes.
- jgopp, on 10/19/2008, -1/+3I figured the "snowmobiling on water" was going to be on here. That ***** is really weird.
- jeddyftb, on 10/19/2008, -2/+4All of these make more sense to me than Cricket.
- PiRATE7, on 10/19/2008, -1/+3They forgot Dwarf Tossing....
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_tossing - keraneuology, on 10/19/2008, -1/+3That's nothing. I just visited a planet where a group of people called spend all day juggling issues and dodging questions.
- IIECONII, on 10/19/2008, -0/+2Hornuss looks AWESOME!
·Violence
·Injury
·Fast-moving objects
·A golf-club that is made of fishing-rod-thin carbon-fiber
·Played outdoors
I wanna' move to Switzerland just to play this. - ElectroStep, on 10/19/2008, -0/+2Free running is similar to Parkour, yes.
- 0260, on 10/19/2008, -0/+2Grinding with soap shoes is closer to inline skating than skateboard since they use the same tricks. It's just the lame version and takes less skill
- NHeerDesign, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1Golf?
- Sylocat, on 10/20/2008, -0/+1American Football barely qualifies as a "sport." It's just a variant of rugby with a lot of sissy padding and breaks every half-hour, so the infants can play it.
- Blacksoth, on 10/20/2008, -0/+1Yeah, that doesn't seem any weirder than Ultimate Frisbee or Lawn Bowling.
- drgmdp, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1i bet skibobbing is as fun as painful (a lot)
- graemee, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1Wasn't tennis French?
- ThatGeek, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1I would say that the match is at 7
not the game - warsongs7, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1Man, is that sport stupid. A spastic version of rugby.
- Tolzmaniac, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1Slamball! How I miss thee.
- digghasnoethics, on 10/19/2008, -5/+6Where's American Football?
- teebird, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1Here are two more:
Buskashi: http://www.escapeartist.com/efam29/buzk.html
and my personal favorite, 43-man squamish:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/43-Man_Squamish http://www.collectmad.com/madcoversite/index-quiz_ ... - drewawesome, on 10/19/2008, -0/+1Oo mommy when I grow up I want to stick ferrets down my pants! Can you picture that?
- Sylocat, on 10/20/2008, -0/+0I believe cheese rolling made their list of "the ten most INSANE 'sports' from around the world." I'm not sure why Cracked didn't just do a "part 2" instead of changing the title from "insane" to "baffling."
Cheese rolling is awesome, though, but to me, the most awesome game in the world sounds like Royal Shrovetide Football. - ImYourRealDad, on 10/19/2008, -1/+1When was the last time you said "Oh man, I gotta get home! The tennis game is on at 7!"
Never. - thavi, on 10/19/2008, -1/+1lol this was an exceptionally good list
- Sylocat, on 10/20/2008, -0/+0If only Itagaki would put that in his next game...
- Sylocat, on 10/20/2008, -0/+0Lacrosse is French.
- inactive, on 10/19/2008, -1/+1Guy in the thumbnail looks very hot in the full pic. Beautiful, tan and muscular. And if he likes stuffing things down his pants, I could always put my hand down there for him. Might not be as furry and cuddly as a ferret, but it's more practiced.
- WorldGroove, on 10/19/2008, -1/+1Extreme Ironing
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=njHE4S-HD3I - Sylocat, on 10/20/2008, -0/+0Maybe you just landed on a bad part of the world.
