Wife-carrying is an actual competition that originated in Finland and involves male competitors racing while each carrying their wife teammate. The race is far from simple, as it is an obstacle course that is extremely difficult to complete. The World Wife-Carrying Championship, now in its 23rd year, draws thousands of visitors to the town of 4,200 residents and has gained followers across the world.
