2007 Wife Carrying Championships 16:9   2:28 139 MB
Teams are comprised of a male and female competitors, however the female does not need to be the legal wife of the male. Carrying methods often include the piggy back or firemen's carry, but teams are encouraged to create their own style. Experienced teams and all winners to date employ the highly-technical Estonian carry, which has the woman upside down with arms wrapped around the man's waist and her legs draped over his shoulders. The 278-yard course is built on the lower slopes of Sunday River Ski Resort. The winners recieve the wife's weight in beer and the wife's weight times 5 in cash. See Press Releases for results.
