This video shows residents from the English county of Gloucestershire competing in a "cheese chase". The annual event is thought to be around 200 years old and involves rolling down Cooper's Hill after a block of Gloucester cheese - the winner gets to take it home. Each year the event results in various injuries, including broken ankles, sprained wrists and concussion (hence the number of paramedics waiting at the bottom of the slope). This year saw 58 people treated for injuries, including one spectator, who fell out of a tree.
