Cheese-loving daredevils hurl themselves down Cooper's Hill in Gloucestershire for famous race

  • The annual cheese rolling race takes place on Cooper's Hill in Brockworth, England, involving a 200-yard dash chasing a 6.6-pound wheel of Double Gloucester cheese.
  • The race has a steep hill with a 60-degree initial drop and 45-degree average incline, causing frequent serious injuries due to the hazardous conditions.
  • Runners, including international competitors, face common ankle injuries and concussions, with some missing flights due to emergency surgery after accidents on the hill.
  • Chris Anderson, who won a record 23 races starting in 2005, said, "You've just got to have a disregard for your own safety," highlighting the event's risks.
  • The race remains uninsured and unofficial with participants competing at their own risk, and liability issues surround cheesemaker Diana Smart, who produces the race's cheese.
