I live next to this hill and the cheese roll was cancelled this year due to corona virus but they rolled the cheese anyway to commemorate the occasion - it’s a super big event!!
Any sport/event that features willing participants, endangering life & limb, without our stupid, overbearing threat of litigation overshadowing the fun, gets my enthusiastic up-vote!
I love how that girl Flo just looks like she's falling , but obviously she has some type of technique because she's won 4 cheese rolling competitions. The most that any women has
She said in an interview: just run really really fast and don't try to stay up. Do not lean back trying to keep balance. Lean forward as if you were running a sprint. When I Heard that it just made the whole event even more ridiculous
It's our tradition to run down a hill breaking limbs just to catch a piece of cheese which is impossible to catch. I'm white British and I have to say to this " Fucking white people" 😂😂😂x

Even with good trail running shoes, this wet hill without paved track is still scary. I run in the mountains but I damn commend these crazy participants to tumble and hurt themselves to make it to the bottom of the hill first lol.
Flo is from there and looks like she had much training running down hills. Plus she is really determination to win. For sure a pro and loved the Netflix show.
A remnant of the games that took place during Cooper's Hill Wake held on top of the hill on Whit Monday. Others events included wrestling, shin kicking, girning, smock races, a maypole - and food and drink.
Wondering if this still happened in 2021? As it was, sort of, cancelled in 2020.. due to the coronavirus pandemic. As in the humans didn't, but the cheese rolled.
They have mesh they need to put up to seperate the racers and spectators... somebody needs to mow the, porta potties, first aid team, honestly there's not a lot but there its not like they just show up and everything's ready to go.
He tried I guess but mannn if you're gonna do it dont tip toe like oh oh dont get hurt I'm scared woo oh wait I better fall so it looks good..throws self down. Weak
@@char1137 - In the UK, we also have the wife carrying competition, and the stinging nettle competition, and the bog snorkling competition lol. All of them are also long traditions which people may find totally crazy at first lol.

@Eliza Davis So hopefully next year there will be an even bigger Double Gloucestershire cheese rolling down Cooper's Hill...🥮😃
Because of the hoax
It’s back on..!! Let’s go cheese
It's not like catching the lurgy is a significant risk compared to what they're already taking!

My friend's mother died of the 'hoax'.
Rugby: claims to be the most dangerous
Some people racing for cheese:
"The trick is not to die"
God, I love this sport. I'm coming to Britain to take part.
Absolute madness. We wish you luck!

Her technique is not being scared to fall.
Technique is for loosers, real chad uses gravity

@IamTOXIC ML 👍🏼
Sometimes traditions don't make sense. That's kinda what makes it so great IMO . 😄 🤣
Racing after an uncatchable cheese wheel is one of the most British things I’ve seen.
Just watching this gave me joint pain.
@Aquib Ejaz Just say "cheese" and you'll soon feel better.... 📸🧀😉
Its a British tradition... I'm British and I'm as unlikely to do it as anyone else, but I'm pleased it happens in my country

I remember in 1965 I used to do cheese rolling with my uncle and it was the best. Hi uncle Gregory.
Damn ur like 60
Doing this is on my bucket list
People run down a hill
Hole in ground: I'm about to end ankles whole career
And not a hair out of place , well done mate you did well.
@Marcia Peacock We spare no effort to satisfy our viewers!😉💈🧼
This is where I’m from and I used to live right next to it my uncle broke his arm and it’s so worth it is so fun 😂 this is Gloucester
How the hell do people NOT break their necks?!
I can imagine Ron Swanson loving this event.
How the hell do you carry this out for so many years without someone breaking a neck?
People have broken their legs, dislocated collarbone's, concussions, maybe a few people have died idk
Looked it up, no one has died yet, just alot of injuries
@@ItsKirbyTime 3 have died fact

Did anyone else realize the dude that won went early? EXPOSED CHEATER!!! Lol
Thanks for the history of the cheese/cows….. awesome story!
i almost caught that cheese 10 years ago and even at my age i would still have a go. my tip is just keep running and stop rolling.
The last will be the first... whaaat?? 😅😅😅😂😂😂 cool video.
How go you participate? Do you just show up and say you want to be a part of the race?
@Pedro Portillo All you need to do is show up on time at the top of the hill and contact the organisers. 🧀
Downhill Mountain Biking
this should be olympic sports
Who is this Reporter ? I’ve seen him in movie or tv show 🧐
He looks a bit like Andrew Flintoff.
Yes, Max Merrill is one of Euromaxx's hosts on TV.
This cheese is way more worth than the richest man in the world.
It’s incredibly fun to do aswell 😅
only in the UK, or maybe elsewhere in Europe
england only
Esse povo de minas gerais vão longe por um queijo!!😮🧀
Just watched on netflix. I thought for sure the girl with the toddler's haircut that won got a head start
That was a great start.
🤣 Toddler hair cut.
That's Florence Early.
i need to do this!
What happen if someone put a knife there planted it and go in ur head yes u wanna do it yes
Right? It is so funny!!
that guy at 0:13 x)
Wondering if this still happened in 2021?
As it was, sort of, cancelled in 2020.. due to the coronavirus pandemic.
As in the humans didn't, but the cheese rolled.
Sadly, it was cancelled again this year. However, it's going full cheese ahead next year 😁
What do the organisers have to pay for ? The cheese ?
They have mesh they need to put up to seperate the racers and spectators... somebody needs to mow the, porta potties, first aid team, honestly there's not a lot but there its not like they just show up and everything's ready to go.
Dude thats talking: it must be good to roll down a hill and almost break your bones!" :me: ._.
I once did an escape room where we were mice and we had to steal the cheese in this it was kinda weird
I remember when I did it once I was the second fastest runner
So, maybe next year you're going to be the fastest!
liar
Hey, at least u tried.
Can anyone take part?
People from other countries too?
Yes. people from around the globe can participate!
@@dweuromaxx
As long as you are as daft as a brush head.
Well, this doesn’t seem to be viral
in Germany/Austria we would say: KEINE SCHWÄCHE ZEIGEN!!!!
... nur die harten kommen in den garten.
Will he do it again?
