The other day I was discussing with a friend what I should include as one of my first posts. He had suggested “ladder racing,” just because it sounded pretty ridiculous. Unbeknownst to my friend, ladder racing is actually a sport of sorts as demonstrated in this incredible video clip:
Comments on this vdieo claim it to be of Czech origin, though I can’t find any proof of that.
One possibility is that what you see here is a derivative of a popular sport/competition/ego boost/training exersize/morale builder known as Firematic Racing, and is most popular in New York and Florida.
If anyone knows more about the origins of this video or about Firematic Racing (more info on that here), let us know!
