From article “The event, which has been running since 1999, requires participants to withstand 110C for as long as possible.”

110C — I don’t think so. Maybe 110 F.

Do we have a freeper in the know?

Why is “sauna” a sport. Isn’t is supposed to be a pleasant, relaxing spa treatment, not an endurance test?

Eat all you can, drink all you can, hold your breath and dive as deeply as you can, roast as long as you can in a sauna, etc... dumb, dumb, dumb. Set up to produce a death and all do, sooner or later. Don’t know who’s dumber: the contestants, the organizers or the fans.

This reminds me of the guy in the 1800's who didn't excuse himself from the dinner table and died the next week from the ensuing ruptured bladder.

Too much self-control can be lethal.

“World Sauna Championships”

Just as much of a sport as World Soccer Championships (World Cup) is/are.

I wonder if vuvuzelas are allowed in the sauna?

GO FINLAND!

Sitting in a sauna is a sport? I am not a sports fan.

This is sick. What is next, competitive praying? A sauna (correctly pronounced in the Finnish fashion: sow-na) is a cleansing of the body and soul, not a competitive sport! It soothes aches and pains both physical and spiritual. Besides, without an ice cold lager, what’s the point?
