@@paultrussy4243 this is the world championship. Where the countries send their champion. I found out after hearing about a USA couple getting invited to the finland world championship. Maybe the uk winner will participate here too.
Hi there! Can i maybey use this footage for a video with 5 facts about sports? This one will be of course the fact that there is a wife carrying world championships in Finland! If yes, i will of course link your video in the description! Have a nice day ( :
There is no weight classes. Heavier wife is better because you get more beer if you win 😎 But with lighter wife winning is easier so you must choose do you take a risk.
A Finn Armi Kuusela was Miss Universum 1952, weighted then 49 kg. That is a minimum weight. If wife weight less, then You need to carry some dumbbells.
errr.... USA?, feminists would be all over it. One of the competitors would be trans, there'd be demonstrations between left and right, and a couple of cops would be suspended for using too much force, and as for the gender of the " wives" well that would be another debate. Apart from that, this event in the USA ( and UK ) would swing along nicely. Putting my sarcasm to one side, there was one in Maine. USA.
I got carried like that by my brother while hiking I end up nutting on his bald head he was running and kept throwing his head back it felt uncomfortable being in my filth while being carried😭 my girlfriend still makes fun of me for that
Truly a manly competition
Beautiful tradition
strangely wholesome , my love to Finland
So cool and nice cooperation , just amazing
This is REAL STRONGMAN Competition ! You need to be STRONG & Have Fast Legs ! Every Year - a New Winner !
I loved it when they played the song, "All of Me".
Could I use your video to make a video in Chinese
That was wonderful.
only in Finland folks, only in Finland..
...and England although not quite the same scale 😁

There can be no more inaccurate sport in which athletes participate. It's about humor. A shortage in sports.

Is number 3 have 2 wives?
Wonderful tradition. Keep it!
Me and my brothers carry our sisters either piggyback or sitting on our shoulders, like in shallow water or beach. It's fun!
Where were the country by country qualifiers leading up to the world championships?
Hi Kim, there are no qualifiers - actually you can just turn up and enter. It is fantastic fun! (I came last in both of my races - it doesn't matter).
Can anyone participate in this competition? From any country
Yes!
This Getting Out of Hand ! More & More People Are Getting involved - to LOOK GOOD !
Are there any different weight classes? I mean you could have a very skinny wife, and then there are... the other kind.
Yeah. But I don't think so. I heard you can win the weight of your wife in beer on those

They aren’t necessarily married you know. This is just fun 😅
i'd love to see a US version. oh wait
Who could lift a bunch of these whales? I couldn’t!😂😂
Oh weight...

Honeyyyyyyyyyy !!!!!!Where are my glasses ? In the Pool you idiot !!! Oh get off my back ! LOL
Not only half drowned in the pool but - when it gets tough - hangign right above the exhaust gasses ;)
Finnland for the Win! (but you shoulda kept Sanna Marin)
Show show show show tô fazendo
Some of these contestants made me really concerned about the wives day today safty due to some obvious physical differences😂😂😂
I was born in that country but I have to admit that they're a little crazy. That untuned brass band doesn't help.
They are probably bit drunk, band I mean...
The brass band was perfect.
))))
1:09 Did he know she would have to hold her breath 😮 I hope so 😅
Yet another reason to marry a short girl 👍
Definitely should be a husband carrying championship so everyone is happy, women are equal right?
In the UK Wife Carrying Race, anyone can carry anyone!
This wouldn’t be feasible in America 😂
ماترزون 🍉🌈
Wow a polygamist came in 3rd carrying two wives! Awesome!
I got carried like that by my brother while hiking I end up nutting on his bald head he was running and kept throwing his head back it felt uncomfortable being in my filth while being carried😭 my girlfriend still makes fun of me for that
They must be the new married or couple who haven't got a baby yet.
That’s every broads excuse. I laugh when women put on 80lbs when 20 is just fine.
Who knows anymore. I'm going to stay single.
They aren’t necessarily married you know 😄.
I was hoping to see the relay race for polygamists
this must be banned
Are you a nutter? It seems so!😂
