A man lifts a plough with his mouth at the Rural Olympics in India
If you thought some of the events in the London 2012 Olympic Games looked gruelling then think again.
These bizarre pictures show competitors taking part in India’s Rural Olympics. And the sports are not for the fainthearted.
Games include being run over by farm machinery, bullock chariot racing,
horseback acrobatics and other weird demonstrations of strength.
Formally known as the Kila Raipur Sports Festival, competitors range in age from teenagers to pensioners.
There is even a 100metre race for the over 80s.
Around a million people attend the annual sporting event which has now become an important part of India’s Punjab culture.
