Estonian Margo Uusorg carries Egle Soll on his back to win Wife-Carrying World Championships 2005 in Sonkajarvi, Finland, July 2, 2005. Estonia reigned supreme once again in the wife-carrying world championship on Saturday, as Uusorg sprinted home to win the Baltic country's eighth straight title in the offbeat competition. Forty couples from 10 countries gathered in the remote Finnish village of Sonkajarvi to complete a 253.5-metre-long obstacle course. A man must carry a woman, not necessarily his spouse, through a pool and across hurdles.

odd, news, random
