Is 'Ultimate Tazer Ball' The Most Ludicrous Sport Of All Time?

Think 'Ultimate Tazer Ball' is a pretty silly name for a sport? Just wait till you you see it in action.

Based on an idea from Leif Kellenberger, this extreme sport involves eight players, a 24-inch ball, a 200 x 85 foot rectangular playing field and eight tasers. That's right, tasers.

If you take a look at their website, utblive.com, there's an extensive and detailed explanation of the rules, but the main thing is this: you can only tase people if you're holding the ball and in the special 'shock zone'.

Otherwise, it's a simple game of get-the-massive-ball-in-the-other-team's-goal - it just has that little bit of extra-added danger thanks to the chance of being attacked with an electroshock weapon.

If you're incredibly excited about seeing the sport live, why not head to Thailand for 3 March to see their Bangkok match. It's going to be... shocking. Sorry, we couldn't resist.

It’s the same concept as American Idol — people battling it out to see who’s best. But in this case, if you lose, instead of getting a tongue-lashing from Simon Cowell, you get your nose broken or you get knocked unconscious. I mean, those guys have some serious stones. The mixed martial arts fighting takes incredible skill. Hell yeah, I like mixed martial arts — now you know.
