I’ve heard of some weird sporting competitions in my time, but toe wrestling is definitely up there. The best of the best converged on Derbyshire recently for the 35th annual competition.
It might sound a bit manky to lock digits with another bare footed athlete, but organizers insist it’s more sanitary than you might think. Feet must be clean and inspected for any nasties before the competition.
Then it’s all down to business. This year the title went to Paul Beech, or Predatoe to his friends. He doesn’t look like any athlete I’ve seen, so it might be a good thing he’s got tough toes on his side!
