Fancy a spot of tennis, basketball or football? Boring! Why play a conventional sport that actually makes some kind of sense when you could be spending your time tumbling down hills or climbing mountains to do your ironing. Without further ado, here are the 6 most ridiculous sports we can’t believe actually exist.
1. Extreme Ironing
This seems like less of a sport and more of a bizarre lifestyle choice. Participants carry an ironing board to remote locations like ridiculously high mountain tops and iron items of clothing. The official website describes the appeal of this activity much better than I could. It’s “the latest danger sport that combines the thrills of an extreme outdoor activity with the satisfaction of a well-pressed shirt.”
