5. Cheese-Rolling at Cooper’s Hill, England 🧀
The annual Cheese-Rolling contest at Cooper’s Slope is a charming English ritual that is both dangerous and weird. It involves rolling a 9-pound wheel of Double Gloucester cheese down a steep slope while falling and stumbling after it.
The first person to reach the bottom wins the cheese. Quite a work for a ball of cheese, right? Although injuries are frequent, people love this event because of the excitement, glory, and of course cheese.
