Kiwi Sports-Toe-Pushing Competition/奇葩运动——扳脚趾大赛

Around the world, there is a sport that everyone can play and they are very willing to participate in. That is wrench. Whether in bars, at dinner tables, or on the playground, people always use wrenches to decide whether to win or lose.

The way to compete is that one of the competitors throws the other down and wins two games in three games. The way to compete is so simple. Wrist wrench competition can reflect a person's real strength situation.

Maybe wrenching is too common. Everyone knows it, and it has a long history. So another sport based on wrenches came into being in Derbyshire, England - toe wrenching.

Toe-wrenching was invented by the British and became a game of absolute British domination, although this situation of absolute domination is often broken by seed players from other countries.

The first toe-pulling competition started in Britain, and the British who thought there would not be many people to play were slapped in the face. The champion was easily snatched by a
Canadian player. It seems that it's a bit difficult to have absolute domination over the sport.

Although the British failed in the first sport they invented, they were not discouraged. In order to regain absolute sovereignty, every year in Derbyshire, England, [toe-pulling competition] is held, which should be called the International Toe-pulling Competition.

Toe-wrenching has been held for more than a dozen years, and since 1994, the British have regained absolute dominance over the sport. This sport may seem exotic, but there are complete rules and regular referees.

The rules of the competition are the same as those of the wrench competition, so the sport is very simple, it will be easy to see.

What is more interesting is that the British intend to apply for the toe-pulling competition as an
Olympic sport, and there is no doubt that the application for the sport has been ruthlessly rejected. But the reputation of the toe wrenching contest is well known all over the world.

Love life, love sports.

在世界各地，有一种运动是人人都会，并且都十分愿意参与其中的，这就是扳手腕。无论是在酒吧还是在饭桌上，更或者是在运动场上，人们总是会用扳手腕来决定输赢。

比赛方式是参赛选手其中一方把另一方撂倒，然后三局两胜，比赛方式就是这样简单。通过扳手腕比赛，可以反映出一个人真实的力量情况。

也许是扳手腕运动太过于平常了，平常到无人不知无人不晓，并且历史还十分悠久。于是另一项运动以扳手腕为基础在英国德比郡产生了——扳脚趾比赛。

“扳脚趾比赛”由英国人发明，并且还成为了英国绝对统治的比赛，虽然这种绝对统治的局面时常会被其他国家的种子选手给打破... ...

第一届扳脚趾比赛在英国起航，本以为不会有很多人会玩的英国人却被狠狠打脸，冠军轻松就被一位来自加拿大的选手给夺走了。看样子想要拥有对该项运动的绝对统治权真的有点困难啊！

虽然英国人第一次举办自己发明的运动就惨败了，但是英国人并没有因此气馁。为了拿回绝对统治权，在英国德比郡每年都会举办【扳脚趾比赛】，这场比赛应该称为“国际扳脚趾大赛”。

扳脚趾大赛已经举办了几十多届了，从1994年开始，英国人就拿回来对该项运动的绝对统治权。这项运动看似很奇葩，但是却有完整的比赛规则，有正规的裁判。

比赛规则和扳手腕比赛的规则是一样的，所以该项运动非常的简单，简单到一看就会。

更有意思的是英国人打算把扳脚趾大赛申请为奥会比赛项目，毫无疑问，该项运动的申请被无情地拒绝了。不过扳脚趾大赛的名声却被世界各地的人们所熟知。

热爱生活，热爱体育运动。
