There are a lot of weird sports out there—wife carrying, oil wrestling, octopus wrestling, extreme ironing. The premise of this one—combat juggling—is pretty simple: juggle three items, and try to get your opponent to drop his three. The results are surprisingly entertaining, and yes, quite athletic. Grantland made a whole little video about it:
From a dude with a tattoo of the very first artistic depiction of juggling, to some pretty intense combats, this is more than you ever though you needed to know about a sport you had no idea existed. Perhaps this is all combat juggling needs to catapult to dodgeball-level fame.
