Videos of Cooper's Hill Cheese-Rolling and Wake


The 2007 Cooper's Hill Cheese-Rolling race recently took place, and SoGlos.com has a good recap on the event. The race is named after Cooper's Hill near Cheltenham and Gloucester in the Cotswolds region of England, and the object is to chase a wheel of Double Gloucester cheese down the very steep hill. Many are injured -- see for yourself. [via]
