For hundreds of years, one remote hill in the middle of England has hosted one of the weirdest festivals in the world. It’s the Cooper’s Hill Cheese Rolling Festival. The event is held every year at the end of May, with over 15,000 participants and spectators from all over the world joining each year.
The rules are simple. A large wheel of cheese is rolled down the hill, and participants chase after it. The first runner to make it to the bottom of the hill is the winner. The winner of the race is allowed to keep the cheese as a prize.
Cooper’s Hill is only 200 meters long, but it is very steep. As a result, racers do not run down the hill; instead, they usually fall down the hill head over heels. This has led to a lot of accidents. For this reason, the event was officially canceled in 2010. Outraged fans have continued the event unofficially since then.
