A lot of people are bored with the usual sports. They want a challenge and often seek adventure and excitement. Here are three kinds of sports that are not only challenging but also unusual and sometimes even funny.

Unicycle hockey.

Can you ride a bicycle? What about a unicycle? And how about playing hockey on it? This kind of sport originates from the USA but is very popular in Germany and the UK nowadays. The age of the participants is not limited. A dozen of people have to ride their unicycles and score the goals with a special ball while managing to swerve across the field. The competitions are held on a special plastic field. The main similarities to the hockey game are gates and clubs. Unicycle hockey players have a lot to learn in terms of fights. The rules differ from regular hockey. Fights are strictly forbidden.

Scuba diving in the swamp.

The diving championship in the dirty swamp comes from Great Britain and has become an annual event, which attracts enthusiasts from Europe, the USA and even Australia. Men and women can take part in the competition. The main things to have are a scuba mask, a snorkel and flippers. Athletes need to swim 60 metres in a ditch in the middle of a swamp. Athletes must be at least 14 years old but there is no upper limit. The world record (1 minute 57 seconds) in this kind of sport was set by Miss Abigail James.

Wife carrying.

A wife can be excellent "equipment" for those who want to keep fit. Don't believe it? Then take part in a Wife Carrying World Championship. The sport originates from Finland but is now popular in many countries. The rules are simple. The wife sits on her husband's neck, and he holds her tightly by the legs. They have to run 253.5 metres with different obstacles. This obstacle course can include water, sand, grass and asphalt. It is not advisable to drop a wife. First of all, she can get hurt. The second reason not to lose "such precious equipment" is a 15-second fine which can be charged by the judges. Wives must be at least 17 years old and not lighter than 49 kg.
