This ancient British tradition involves chasing a 9-pound wheel of cheese down Cooper's Hill's steep, bumpy slope while trying not to break your neck. The cheese can reach 70mph, and participants frequently tumble spectacularly down the hill. It's equal parts dangerous and hilarious, with serious injuries common but spirits always high among the mad competitors and cheering crowds.
