Russian city holds keyboard throwing competition |
|
Wednesday, 29 April 2009 |
More than 30 people participated in a rather bizarre computer keyboard throwing competition at a festival in the Volga city of Nizhny Novgorod on Wednesday, the organizers said.
According to competition rules, the participants have to throw the keyboard without making any body turns. Only keyboards with all keys intact are allowed to be used in the competition.
"The workability and the brand are unimportant," one of the contest organizers said.
The competition winner threw his keyboard more than 15 meters (49 feet).
Participants also displayed their skills in the "kicking a computer mouse" competition. The winner received a new mouse. Information from: RIA Novosti, http://en.rian.ru/ |
