It’s neat that they think the sport came from farmers using a similar technique to get across water in their fields. It looks like a lot of fun to watch—let us know how you’re coming along . That video was neat.

I think you will occasionally see something similar on MXC (Most Extreme elimination challenge) on Spike TV.

I’m thinking that a lot of the hernia-intensive Scottish sports like caber tossing, stone hurling, hay bale tossing etc all derived from an attempt to have fun while doing heavy farm labor.
