奥运也疯狂:10种昙花一现的奇怪奥运项目

2012-07-25来源:oddee

Tug Of War (1900 - 1920)
拔河(1900-1920)

This may seem like a basic gym class sport more than an Olympic event, but Tug of War was actually one of the first sports played at the Olympic games in 500 BC.
这看起来更像是体育课上做的基础运动而不是奥运比赛项目。但是事实上,早在公元前500年,拔河就已经是奥运会上的几个项目之一。

In the modern Olympic version of the game, there are two teams of eight; the winning team must pull the other team six feet forward in order to win. After 5 minutes, if no team had succeeded, the team which had pulled the furthest was declared the winner.
在现代奥运会的拔河赛上,一般有两支8人的比赛队伍。赢的队伍必须将对方前拉6尺才算赢得比赛。5分钟后,若还没有决出冠军,哪一方将对方前拉得远,就算胜出。
