What activities are sports? Running and football? Sure. Synchronized swimming? Probably. Ballroom dancing? Maybe. Gardening? Definitely not. Most people believe that sports must combine physical activity and competition. If we use this definition, then extreme ironing is a sport.
What is extreme ironing? Extreme ironing is pressing clothes in very difficult places. Ironists must carry their irons. Ironing boards, and wrinkled laundry with them to the competition site. Some ironists take electric generators. Other heat their iron with gas stove. Their competitors get more point for the difficulty of the location. However the quality of the ironing is important too. Each item must be well pressed.
Extreme ironists compete in some amazing places. Contestants iron while they climbing rocks, mountains, and trees. They iron in canoes, on the back of cows, and even underwater.
Is it a sports?? If it is yes, why it don’t included into the Olympics??
