Dødsing, Norway's Belly Flop Contest, Is The Olympic Sport For The Rest Of Us

It's funny and frightening at the same time.

They take belly flops very seriously in Norway.

An entire sport has developed around dødsing, which is essentially the belly flop with a frightening twist. Participants jump from the 10-meter board and keep their bodies as straight and flat as they can, for as long as they can.

Check out some highlights of the weekend’s championships in the clip above.
