   Brockworth, Gloucester,
   England.
*competitors have to chase after 
  the cheese down to the bottom.
  The first person across the finish
   line is the winner. They will be
   given cheese as their prize.
*There are 4 downhill races (3 for
  men, 1 for women). Maximum 14
  racers for each (some years have
  seen up to 40)

    - example actions of somersault

        which a person turns head
        over heels in the air/on the

*is an originated Finnish sport/contest which male competitors race in a distance of 100 -150 metres while each of them carries a female teammate. They have to carry the female through special obstacle tracks which includes sandpit, hay stack and fences in the fastest time. The prize for winning the race is the wife's weight in beer.
*There are several types of carrying such as classic piggyback, a fireman's carry (over the shoulder) or Estonian-style (wife upside down on his back with her legs over the neck and shoulders)

a. Problem
 - The prize for winning the race is the wife's weight in beer.

b. Solution
 - Change the beer for something else for the prize. Alcohol content in most beers range from 5% to 14% per volume. So, too much of beer could increase the Blood Alcohol Concentration (BAC) in the body which can cause many side effects such as memory loss, nausea and high blood pressure. 
Especially bad for women. Therefore, factors such as individual's weight, gender and pattern of drinking should also be taken measure. ]]> 2020-11-04 04:05:27 UTC https://padlet.com/aisyahnurfuad/Bookmarks/wish/888594452 Point 3 aisyahnurfuad https://padlet.com/aisyahnurfuad/Bookmarks/wish/888601625 Underwater hockey/Octopush
