Office Chair Racing Championships

More than 50 people participated in Germany's third annual office chair championships racing each other on a 200-metre downhill course in the town of Bad Koenig, south of Frankfurt. The contestants were free to adapt their office chairs for race conditions, but were not allowed motors to propel them down the cordoned-off road.
Racers also wore helmets, knee pads and elbow protectors, as contestants reached speeds of up to 35 kilometres per hour. Some sat on the chair, others lay on their stomachs.
