Cheese Rolling 2023 EXTREME INJURIES CRAZY Sport!

The Cooper's Hill Cheese-Rolling annual event held on the Spring Bank Holiday at Cooper's Hill, near Gloucester in England.
Participants race down the 200-yard (180 m) long hill chasing a wheel of Double Gloucester cheese. The event has a long tradition, held by the people of the local village of Brockworth, but now people from all over the world take part.

Not very diverse, is it? Never seen so many white faces...

[@surreyscouse2873]

It's cheese chasing, not (fried) chicken chasing.....
Hence the lack of diversity.
