It is 2am. It is darkish outdoors. I look over at my clock with the sudden realisation that there are actually a whole bunch and hundreds of individuals on the market getting wasted on low cost booze and customarily having a significantly better time than me. I rub my eyes, sigh, shake my head and get again on with it. Not as a result of I am higher than them. And never as a result of I am some unhappy, locked-in loser both (though that’s debatable.) You see, I do not want the same old distractions – booze, enjoyable, ladies, daylight, different folks, regular human society – all fade into obscurity. I care not for these items. Why? As a result of I’ve stumbled upon the traditional artwork of Midget Throwing!
Maybe it is a signal of the occasions. Maybe I’ve lastly gone loopy. I’ve spent all night time taking a look at flying dwarves. There is a story to this – you will have seen our current article ‘The A-Staff – Then And Now.’ If you have not, then you definitely’d higher drag your nugatory ass over there. After placing that individual masterpiece on-line, I learn by way of and one sentence specifically lept out at me: “Mr T is winner of the World’s Toughest Bouncer contest. One of the events in the competition was dwarf tossing (since outlawed.)” Dwarf Tossing?! That sounds superb! I simply needed to discover out extra!!
The misplaced sport that’s Dwarf Tossing / Midget Throwing originated in Australia within the 1980’s – a pub recreation for bored white trash nation sorts, uninterested in driving their tractors. In line with one web site (hosted on the ever-trusty BBC.co.uk no much less):
“This pub sport can be played by anyone, as the need for heavy consumption of alcoholic beverages as preparation purposes is completely optional, but strongly recommended. Both men and women can play and even compete against each other head-to-head. Unfortunately for the men, the women who generally participate tend to have male like qualities. This has meant the customary swapping of shirts at the end of each competition has been scrapped, due to the women’s constant complaints that the shirts given to them were always too small and that they wouldn’t want to wear the shirt of a ‘chauvinist pig who got his kicks throwing persons of restricted growth anyway’.
Large muscles, strong legs and the arbitrary beer belly are the physical secret weapons of a true dwarf-throwing athlete. However, to fully master the sport the athlete must also possess the strength of an ox, the speed of a leopard, the timing of a magician, the patience of a predator and the appearance of a rather large bull sitting on a wasp. In order for ‘persons pacified with their horizontally-perpendicular circumstances’ to take part in a throwing competition they must always wear full protective clothing. Injury is a serious threat to the career of a Throwing Dwarf who, if on tour, can earn a six-figure sum for allowing people to share in their very specialised field of expertise.”
“Unlike golf, this is a true spectator’s sport worthy of any Olympic games but thanks of the interventions of ‘persons who negotiate a humour deficiency’ no professional body has been created to globally organise and fund what can only be described as the only sport that promotes an unprejudiced view of society (even though a British Association of Dwarf Throwers does currently exist).”
Christopher Reeve shudders in his grave. Lois Lane silently weeps.
These flying midgets get six determine salaries? Can this be true?! Which makes me surprise – who within the title of Jesus H Jones pays these folks? Is there a Flying Midgets union? Are you able to think about placing this in your resume? I ponder if these gifted human missiles get hazard pay?
Principally the foundations are as follows; you choose up your chosen midget (who will probably be adorning some sort of security helmet and vest), take a 3 step run-up and throw the little bugger so far as you presumably can. And there you may have it – presumably probably the most non-PC sport ever invented. Whoever will get their human missile the furthest is the winner. Though I shudder to suppose what sort of prizes could be given. Sexual favours maybe… who is aware of?
The Roots.
The primary of those twisted little occasions to get any actual recognition was The Dwarf Throwing World Championship (I child you not) which occurred a while in 1986 – additional proof as to what a tousled decade that was. That exact toss-fest was received by Staff England – Danny Blue, Roy Merrin and Lenny The Large the heroes of the hour.
Making And Breaking Information.
Take a look on the quite marvellous newspaper clipping to the appropriate. I assure it’s real. The present world file for the longest throw is held by some white trash nutcase known as Cuddles. Bless. I guess he loves his mommy and every part. The throw was a formidable 12 toes 9 inches. Cuddles belongs to a crew of circus escapees calling themselves Oddballs. The Oddballs are primarily well-known for his or her quite racy (and un-nervingly homo-erotic) ‘baloon dance,’ which mainly entails them prancing about bare with baloons overlaying their pinkened, shrunken manhoods.
It appears the native newspapers have been throughout this occasion, eager to carry you the most recent on this excessive spectator sport for the brand new millennium. It appears not a lot occurs in no matter sleepy-hick-filled nation hovel this occurred in (we’ll name it Sheepball-on-sea.) Both that, or there was some loopy, sickening midget intercourse fetish occurring on the time…
Oh, and by the way in which (in the event you give a shit) – in line with some random, haggared website I’ve since forgotten about, the English are nonetheless world champs. One other black eye to nationwide delight, methinks. We’d suck on the Olympics, or some other actual sport for that matter, however rattling – we actually can let these midgets fly.
Understandably, when folks heard about this sick, non-PC, offensive, but surprisingly fascinating sport, they rallied en-masse to have it banned. Wow, that should have been one hell of a sight – a whole bunch of individuals marching down on the homes of legislation, demanding that the vertically-challenged have the appropriate to remain on the bottom. I want I might have been there. Damned hindsight.
The 12 months was 1989, and the world’s solely help group for the vertically-challenged – The Little Individuals Of America – went to Florida and satisfied the lawmakers there that this unusual sport is infact merciless and must be stopped. The measure banning dwarf-tossing was handed with a large margin, and dwarf-tossing was outlawed in each Florida and New York. But, within the LPA’s dwelling state of Texas, you’ll be able to nonetheless throw migdets about to your coronary heart’s content material. Wish to abuse a midget? Now you must get in your automotive and drive… Later Dave Flood who seems on a morning radio discuss present as “Dave the Dwarf,” took the problem to courtroom and made the game unlawful in bars. Thanks Dave.
In Ontario, Canada, the Dwarf Tossing Ban Act, 2003 was enacted, with penalties of a nice of no more than $5,000 or to imprisonment for a time period of no more than six months, or each. Maybe they’ve a particular wing within the jails for the dwarf-tossers. Hmmm…
Regardless of all this fancy authorized motion, this weird sport remains to be going down as we speak. Throughout my analysis for this text / compulsive waste of time, I stumbled throughout some random Devil-type web site that had a bit on Dwarf-Tossing. These photographs (see beneath) have been taken at a current occasion, in all probability deep within the coronary heart of Sheepball-on-sea. One factor I observed – in the event you look intently on the photographs – it is the identical midget being thrown by every a kind of hickory hillbillies. The poor bastard! That is simply not proper! He would not even get a helmet or something!
Bear in mind of us regardless of how weird, completely different, or surprisingly fascinating this obscure and perverse sport could appear, do not strive it. Johnny Regulation can be two steps behind you able to throw your bitch ass in jail. You have heard about what they do to rapists in jail, proper? Think about what they’d do to a Dwarf Thrower. In conclusion… it is by no means cool to be a tosser.
