I’d settle for midget throwing.
That was how Mr. T first drew national attention.
1980-81, NBC ran a series called "Games People Play" about unusual competitions, like arm wrestling. One of them they featured was "American's Toughest Bouncer." Mr. T was one of the contestants and one of the events was the "midget toss."
They put midgets who were professional stunt men in body harnesses (so you could get a grip on 'em) and the contestants threw them as far as they could onto a padded floor.
