| quote: | Germany gets first mobile phone throwing championships
Thu Jun 2, 1:25 PM ET
BERLIN (AFP) - Germans will bring new meaning to the term 'long-distance call' when they compete in the country's first mobile phone throwing championships later this month.
At least 160 competitors are expected to take part in the contest in Bielefeld, on June 25, with the winners qualifying for the world championships in Finland in August.
The organiser of the German event, Virpi Staar, said on Thursday: "People often get annoyed with their mobile phones and want to chuck them as far as they can. Now is their chance."
The 'competition' phones must weigh between 200 and 400 grammes.
"Opinions differ on which brands and what weight is best for throwing," Staar said.
The German competitors have some way to go to beat the world record which currently stands at 82.55 metres (271 feet).
The best by a German is the 67.50 metres achieved by Nico Morawa last October. |
