Ok, ok, I couldn’t resist.
The winter days are pretty gloomy and grey so why not lighten it up a bit? How ’bout a bunch of naked people going sledding?
From The Huffington Post:
“Next month, the German town of Braunlage will host the fifth annual Naked Sledding World Championship, and they’re actively looking for this year’s crop of clothes-free competitors.
To apply, you must be willing to strip down for a grueling, semi-naked race on a toboggan. You’ll be laying on your stomach and propelling forward with your hands (don’t worry– gloves are one of the few articles of clothing allowed) before a crowd of about 25,000 people. In the past, the top(less) male and female sledders each received about $1,000 in prize money.
Organizers of the last Naked Sled chose only 30 participants from a pool of roughly 5,000 applications. Apparently those who “look good naked” tend to get picked, and stipulations are a bit strict: historically, contestants were chosen only from Germany, Austria or Norway, and Brits are forming their first team this year.”
Looks cold enough to “freeze a witches tit” – and give the men “snowballs”…
Damn. 🙂
The Nations mentioned there don’t need the British in this.
The only good that came out of Britain is:
The Beatles
and Jeff Lynne (ELO)
