Cooper's Hill Cheese Rolling
Cooper's Hill Cheese Rolling is an annual event held in Gloucestershire, England, where participants chase a large wheel of cheese down a steep hill. The event typically takes place on the Spring Bank Holiday and attracts both locals and tourists. The cheese used is a double Gloucester, weighing about 9 pounds, and the first person to cross the finish line at the bottom of the hill wins the cheese.
The tradition dates back several centuries and has become a popular spectacle, despite the risks involved. Many participants tumble and fall as they race down the hill, making it both a thrilling and entertaining event for spectators.
