10 Weird World Championships You Can Participate in!

10 Weird World Championships You Can Participate in!

10. Hide-And-Seek World Championship

Every year an abandoned Italian village nestled in the foothills of the Alps becomes a popular playground for fun-loving adults. The village is called Consonno and it is there that the Hide-And-Seek World Championship takes place.

The Hide-And-Seek World Championship was first held in 2010 in Bergamo, only then it was named far more humbly – ‘’Nascondino (hide and seek) Championship.’’ With time, the name of the championship was updated, as was the location.

9. The Snuff World Championship

The Snuff World Championship is a bizarre contest held in Germany which involves snuffing smokeless tobacco. The goal is to stuff up to five grams of tobacco into your nostril within a minute. The winner of the championship is the person who not only sniffs the most tobacco but also has the cleanest work station.

8. Musical Chairs World Championship

If you loved Musical Chairs as a kid, this is the perfect competition for you. The rules for this ‘’sport’’ are simple – you must be at least 18 years old, you can’t be too aggressive, and you have to keep moving until the music stops and then take a seat within seven seconds. Grabbing a chair with your hands is not permissible -you must plop down onto it or else risk being disqualified.

7. Air Sex World Championship

The ‘’Air Sex World Championship’’ is hosted in NYC by the comedian Chris Trew and involves mimicking sexual acts for a prize. Those who wish to take part in this peculiar championship need only turn up at the venue, preferably dressed in costume. They should also come with a couple of sexy songs at their disposal and the determination to act out the most outrageous sex scenes they can think of.

6. World Nose Championship

The ‘’World Nose Championship’’ is just that – a championship for noses. And while everyone can enter, only a few will actually qualify to compete in the finals. The requirements are quite strict and thus only those whose noses are at least four centimetres wide and six centimetres long (five centimetres long for women) will make it to the actual competition. The winner is the person with the largest nose when the length and the width are added together.

5. World Toe Wrestling Championship

Back in 1974 a group of friends were sitting at the ‘’Ye Olde Royal Oak Inn’’ in Wetton, Staffordshire, lamenting the fact that the UK did not produce world champions at anything. But drinking pints must be good for inspiration for they soon came up with a solution: create a new sport in the UK and ensure that a UK citizen takes the cup.

4. World Conker Championship

The ‘’World Conker Championship’’ started in 1965 in the Ashton village, Northamptonshire. As with most strange contests, this one was also conceived in a pub after bad weather spoiled the regulars attempt to organise a fishing expedition. The suggestion that they play conkers instead was taken up with drunken enthusiasm and eventually became an annual event.

3. World Stinging Nettle Eating Championship

Participants come from all over the world and after paying a small entry fee have exactly one hour to strip from the stalks as many stinging leaves as they can eat. Nettles from home, bathroom breaks and numbing agents are forbidden and only swigs of beer, or sometimes water, are allowed to ease the process. The winner of the championship gets to take home a small trophy and a 100 pounds.

2. World Egg Throwing Championship

According to a local legend, in 1322 a new Abbott was appointed to the Parish of Swaton. Unimpressed with the numbers of parishioners who attended the church, he decided to encourage attendance by gifting one egg for each attendee to his sermons.

The parishioners were easy to bribe, seeing as the Abbott was the only one to own chickens in the whole parish. Unfortunately, some time later, the river Eau flooded, cutting off the church from the village. Clearly the parishioners could not go on without their daily egg and thus the monks resorted to throwing the eggs across the river to the waiting locals.

1. World Testicle Cooking Championship

Apparently, dishes made from testicles are a very strong aphrodisiac – they improve libido, awaken primal instincts and give men strength. And nowhere else will you get to taste as many foods made from balls as in the ‘’World Testicle Cooking Championship’’. People from various countries and cultures take part in this Serbian championship and compete in preparing the best testicle delicacies. So far, the competition has witnessed testicle meals made of eighteen different animals, some of which have included stallion, reindeer, donkey, kangaroo, rabbit, shark and swan.
