Cheese Rolling

For most people when they think cheese they think eating, however, if you are in Gloucestershire, England, near Cooper hill you might come across a different answer.

CHEESE ROLLING FACTS
Existed for Hundreds of years.
Last Monday of May on Cooper's Hill
Uses a 7 pound wheel of Double Gloucester Cheese
Contestant hurl themselve down the insanely steep hills in aim of catching the Cheese (really first one to the bottom)

My verdict... I give cheese rolling a 7/10 Kaotic Approval
If your ever in England in May and can head to Gloustershire then, go watch one crazy sport.

More Insane Sports to come.
KAOS
