Some inventions are pretty great, such as the internet, the flushing toilet and the wheel. However, there are some other inventions that aren’t quite as useful, such as the sport where participants do chores up a mountain, or the one that asks its contestants to count livestock. Yet, although these sports aren’t as useful as the internet or the wheel, they are not entirely useless and their eccentricities help to make lots of peoples’ days a little brighter. Here we show you five of these weird sports.

Extreme ironing

Extreme ironing was invented in 1997 by Phil Shaw. The sport basically involves doing the most boring chore in the world – ironing – in a remote or dangerous location. Those who participate in extreme ironing are called ironists and spend their free time lugging their ironing boards and irons around the world, whilst their loving partner carries a camera (and hopefully a first aid kit) in an attempt to capture their daredevil ironing stunt.  Some of the best ironists have been snapped pressing their clothes up a mountain, in a waterfall, underwater, the motorway, hiking, rock-climbing (dry and in snow), on top of a cow or even strapped to the back of a New York City yellow cab.


Ferret legging    

On the off chance that you've at any point seen or held a ferret you will comprehend why this is one of the world's most bizarre games. In the event that you have not, let us advise you that ferrets are solid and horrible when frightened. They additionally have sharp teeth, razor-like hooks and they smell. In view of these realities, presently envision pushing a couple of hungry ferrets down your pants, which have been tied at the base, and now, with the ferrets creeping around your groin, your belt has been fixed. This is ferret legging. 


The point of the game is to save the ferrets in your pants for a very long time conceivable. At present, the ferret legging record is held by Frank Bartlett and Christine Farnsworth who figured out how to withstand the gnawing and scratching of the ferrets for a mind blowing five hours and thirty minutes, and the previous best on the planet, Reg Mellor, wore white pants to show his blood-smudged greatness to the groups watching, we don't think we'll be attempting this one in a rush. 


Joggling

juggling in itself is quite a strange sport, yet combine juggling with jogging and you have yourself one of the world’s weirdest sports ever; joggling.  there are three types of joggling. speed jogglers aim to cover a distance whilst running and juggling in the fastest time. error-free jogglers aim to run and juggle for the longest time without making a mistake. finally, there are the trick jogglers who aim to do as many juggling tricks as possible whilst running a mile (1.6km).


although you might think that joggling is not a serious sport, some joggling fanatics have run in marathons and some have even run in ultra marathons. apparently, the world record for its ultra marathon distance is eight hours and 23 minutes, whilst the world record for marathon distance is two hours, 50 minutes and nine seconds..

Sheep counting 

Australia is a country known for its game. However, what might be said about the entirety of the awkward game haters in Australia? What do they get up to? Indeed, it seems like the game for each one of those awkward, cumbersome Australians is sheep checking. 


In spite of the fact that expertise is should have been a nice sheep counter, actual ability isn't. Essentially, what happens is around 400 sheep are delivered from a pen and 10 contenders need to attempt to precisely consider them the sheep run past. This sheep forgetting about title has created of a calling, which numerous Australians accomplish professionally in the sheep closeout yards. As an essential assignment it can drive the normal individual genuinely crazy, yet as a test it carries status to those with a sharp eye.

 Bossa ball 

Surely bouncing around on a trampoline can’t be improved? Well, think again. Bossa ball is an incredible, fast-paced sport that was invented in Belgium. The sport combines volleyball, football, gymnastics and capoeira and is played on a trampoline, using a ball. The court is bright, big and inflatable so that players are safe when jumping to the fantastic heights they need to. Teams are made up of three to five people and the aim of the game is to ground the ball on the opponent’s side of the net. To do this, players can use any parts of their body to return the ball and they all go to extreme, gravity-defying lengths to do so.


Although a bizarre sport, Bossa ball is by no means obscure. There are clubs and events worldwide and big name brands have become involved in the sport, including Pepsi, Haribo and adidas. Although the novelty and high-energy aspects of the sport appeal to lots of people, the party atmosphere associated with it is one of its greatest attractions.
