Cooper’s Hill Cheese Rolling – Broken limbs incoming



cooper's hill cheese-rollingLast Monday the annual Cooper’s Hill Cheese-Rolling and Wake was held near Gloucester, England. The cheese roller tradition is more than 200 years old, som even say it’s a pagan healing ritual. You have to be pretty healing to notice the healing powers of running down a steep hill.

Traditionally the race is for the local villagers, but now people from all over the world come to Gloucester to catch and win the 8 lb. Double Gloucester cheese.
