Eukonkanto (Wife Carrying)

For most of us doing a 250m track with jumps & a water trap is hard enough but if your in Finland they go one step further. Do all this while carrying your wife on your back. Thats Insane

EUKONKANTO FACTS
Originated in finland as a Joke
Now has world championships
entails 250m, 2 jumps and a water trap
the 'wife' can be any female, actual, friend even a random
15second time penalty if you drop your 'wife' not to mention an ear full

This is an odd and insane sport
Is this an actual reason to tell to your beautiful wife that it would not hurt to lose a couple of kilos (in fact could hurt less)

My verdict... I give EukonKanto a 7/10 Kaotic Approval
If your in Finland and can go watch, heck join in, it could be fun or it could be the end of your marrage, watching would be hte safe bet.

More Insane Sports to come.
