Every July, the Finnish town of Sonkajärvi hosts the world’s most peculiar sporting event: the Wife-Carrying Championship. Couples from around the globe compete in an obstacle course where husbands carry their wives on their backs, racing against the clock.

This quirky competition celebrates teamwork, humor, and the joy of shared challenges.
