The man who blogged you Formula One marble racing (namely, me) now brings you this: Russian Professional Slapping. Watch Vasily “The Dumpling” Kamotsky, in this blogger’s opinion the Gibraltar of the slapping world, take on his most fearsome opponent yet, Wagner Zuluzinho, in a swinging & stinging event of epic proportions.
I wonder if there’s a women’s division…

Dude. Just…dude! That F1 Marble racing. I couldn’t take my eyes off the screen. Mesmerizing. I simply can’t thank you enough.
It is mesmerizing, isn’t it? I subscribed to that channel and I’ve been watching the old videos. I have a favorite team for each series. LOL
Thank you Michael. A bizarre but oddly mesmerising sport. I quite enjoyed Sumo when it was briefly shown on UK TV. There’s something about sports where the competitors are sturdy rather than sporty.
Back in the 70s one of my favorite Olympians was heavyweight weightlifter Vassily Alexiev from the USSR. That was when the best weightlifters were big, fat guys. The sport isn’t the same any more – I haven’t watched the Olympics at all since the one where Muhammad Ali lit the torch, whenever that was, let alone weightlifting itself.
P.S. I claim coining rights to “stwinging.”
P.P.S. There is a women’s division and it’s as different from the men’s as women are from men at strip clubs.
