The weird world of sports!
Cheese-rolling.
Cheese-rolling takes place every May Gloucestershire, England. Competitors run down a very steep hill (in places it has a 1 in 2 gradient!)...and why? They are following a very big local cheese that rolls down the hill! Every year there are hundreds of spectators. The Master of Ceremonies,in traditional costume,starts the race. A special guest lunches the cheese,and the participants follow. The person who arrives at the bottom of the hill frist wins the cheese!
Zorbing.
Zorbing is a new sport from New Zealand. It's not a competitive sport. The 'zorb' is a gigantic inflatable ball,abount 3 metres high, and contains another smaller ball. The ball made of clear plastic. A person (the zorbonaut) stands inside the zorb,and  rolls down the hill. During the journey, the zorbonaut feels strange sensations, and sees blu sky and green grass,blue sky ... green grass ... blue ... green ... The inflated sphere is very soft,like a cushion,so it isn't dangerous!
