Well, perhaps, the human brain with the help of imagination is ready to generate a variety of ideas. Sometimes you are surprised and ask yourself the question: "How could a person come up with this, what inspired him?"
Even in the field of sports games, people have come up with many controversial and incomprehensible competitions. There are a lot of them, so choosing the funniest sport is difficult.
The list of those types of motor activity that can be attributed to comic, causing a smile is quite large. Let's talk about some of them that are the most popular and funny.
Tractor racing
You will not believe, but such races are very popular. And not only in Russia, but also abroad. In the USA, there is even a special organization that conducts them, the National Tractor Racing Association, founded back in 1969.
Fans claim that it all began in the 19th century, when farmers measured the strength of horses. They tied some kind of weight to them and looked to see if they would be able to drag it along with them. The winner was the one whose horse could pull the heaviest load. Then, when tractors began to appear, farmers began to measure their strength.
Then, when the iron machines began to improve, the competitors began to measure not only their strength, but also speed. A lot of time has passed since then, and today in the world there are 22 official organizations of tractor races.
Since 2002, in the Rostov Region, tractor races have been held under the auspices of the Buffalo Track Show competition. Since then, these competitions have gained a large audience of fans and participants, and have also been included in the list of official attractions of the Rostov region. The same race has been held in the Crimea since 2007, near the city of Simferopol.
Moreover, participants in such races improve their tractors no worse than drivers of street races in passenger cars. Drivers of such monsters change the engine to a more powerful one, strengthen their suspension, put turbines on them. Tractors acquire such power that at the competitions iron monster coups are quite possible. This spectacle looks amazing.
Such entertainment can be unconditionally advertised as the funniest sport. Powerful tractor races have many fans around the world.
Bag running
Itβs impossible to say exactly where this game really was born.
It is believed that the evil and bloodthirsty pirates who robbed ships and killed people could come up with this kind of entertainment as running in bags. Of course, since then, little information has been preserved about how the pirates had fun and in what way they thought up how to spend their free time.
A well-known fact is that captains gradually began to ban drinking, as well as gambling. These two entertainments led to constant fights on ships, as well as to incite hostility within the pirate team. And, most likely, from idleness, the pirates came up with running in bags as an alternative to gambling.
According to another popular version, it was invented in Ancient Russia: the landowners had such fun, exposing their peasants.
Today, such entertainment is one of the most popular, and it is carried out at almost all corporate events. Also, such entertainment is in demand at children's parties.
Coopershield Race
Trying to determine the funniest sport, one cannot fail to mention this type of competition. If you want to feel like a mouse that is chasing cheese, then such an eel is just for you. Such an event is held annually in the Cotswold Hills. Participants climb the mountain. The organizers from the slope start up the head of double gloucester cheese. The winner will be the one who first caught up with the cheese rolling on the mountain.
Checkerboard
Shahbox is a very fun sport. Athletes refute the fact that you can not be both strong and smart. According to the rules of this game, participants compete with each other for 11 rounds. During the rounds, a game of chess with boxing alternates. You can win it either by knocking out an opponent with a blow, or by putting a checkmate in a chess game.
Ferret Holding Pants
This entertainment got into the article because of its unusualness and also its danger. Daredevils, having gained courage, let the ferret in their pants. Their main task is to keep the animal as long as possible.
Such entertainment is quite dangerous because no one knows how the ferret behaves. The animal can behave unpredictably, which gives piquancy to these competitions.
It remains only to add that today the longest result is the retention of the ferret for five minutes.
Throwing Christmas trees
For fans of throwing weights, there is such a sport as throwing Christmas trees. In some regions of Germany, this entertainment is a traditional event held annually. It's hard to believe, but the world record was set in 2007 with a spruce tree that was thrown at 17.5 meters.
Throwing mobile phones
The popularity of this contest is very large. Finns thought of this game. The first official competitions were held in 2000. Such events are attended by a very large number of participants and spectators. Guinness World Records are also often invited to record new shots, if any.
The funniest sport to choose is very difficult. There is much more fun competition than the small amount that got into the article. And every day there are more and more funny sports. The list of them is large enough to describe them in one article. But all of them bring considerable joy to the participants, even if they can not be attributed to serious sporting events.
