Baby Crying Festival Held in Japan
via Oddity Central

April 25, 2010

Held every year, at the Sensoji Temple, in Tokyo, the baby crying festival is a 400-year-old tradition, believed to keep rug-rats in good health. Amateur sumo wrestlers hold the babies high in the air, and try to scare them into crying, while a sumo referee judges the match. The toddler who cries longest and loudest is considered the winner.

Next year I might enter GG-junior to show them the power of FG baby lungs.
