There is a strange kind of contest that takes place in Finland every year. It's called the Mobile Phone Throwing World Championship and there was a special surprise this year.
A teen circus performer did not just throw his mobile phone but instead he won the freestyle gold medal at the gamesjuggling.
Taco Cohen of the Netherlands who was celebrating his 19th birthday, used acrobatics and juggling in his performance, which was judged on aesthetics and artistic impression.
Must say that this guy must have been too good. According to event organizer Christine Lund, this contest reflects the people's love-hate relationship with the mobile phone.Originally a local event in a small town close to the Russian border, the contest drew contestants from Canada, Austria and the United States this year.
