Highland Games
Scotland's Highland games combine a cultural celebration with challenging athletic tests of strength — including the unique caber toss.
Freediving
For many in the Philippines, freediving without oxygen is a way of life. It's also a demanding sport that pushes the limits of the human body.
Roller Derby
In Austin, Texas, skaters find an inclusive and supportive community in roller derby, a competition that blends high speed and physical combat.
Kok Boru
In Kyrgyzstan, players throw themselves into the national sport of kok boru, a rough pololike game played on horses — with a dead goat as the ball.
Catch Fétiche
Professional wrestling in the Congo mixes athleticism and showmanship, but adds a layer of voodoo mysticism that makes it unlike anything else.
