  • Hey Kim...

    You know, you're not that far off. There's a sport called "combat chess". It combines mixed martial arts and chess.

    You have a round of MMA, then play a few minutes of chess, then a round of MMA.

    The first person to win in either way is the winner of the bout, so you can win a fight by knock out, submission or checkmate.
  • Slingshot People...

    Bungie-jump not vertical but for length.

    Or use something like a catapult.

    Use a large trampoline to catch people.

    After bouncing off the trampoline the player must land on their feet.

  • Combat chess? I've never heard of it ,but will look into it.

    TL, that sounds more like a way to punish than a sport.
    I say anybody that runs onto a playing field during a sport gets Goal Post Slingshotted!



    On a serious note, have you ever bungie jumped? It is quite an experience!

    EDIT: wow, what a video Kurt!

    • All I could think of is what if something goes wrong while I'm doing it??

      I have not had the privilege.

  • Yeah,
    I have bungie jumped once, and I think thats as often as I ever will, but to try what they did in that video, forgeddaboutit.
  • How about combining competitive eating and a triathalon?

    First you eat 50 chili dogs, then go for a 5 mile swim...We'll find out real quick if the old saying that "you can't go swimming for 30 minutes after you eat" is really true.

    After the swim, 45 miles on a bike, which should be perfect timing for the chili to kick in...Sitting on a bike seat under these conditions will test anyone's fortitude.

    Winner gets a trophy.
