World Sauna Championships Puns

So, I come from Northern Sweden, and we have a Sauna tradition here, surely because we are so close to Finland! But this is still one of the more terrible events I ever heard about.

Under the category, "play stupid games, win stupid prizes", in Finland they used to hold an annual contest called "the sauna championships". Starting back at 1999 they held an annually competition. The contest was to be Sitting in a hot sauna the longest, and that would give the contestant the reward of first prize and honor. Its to be noted that "Sauna bathing at extreme conditions is a severe health risk: all competitors competed at their own risk, and had to sign a form agreeing not to take legal action against the organizers."

So 2010 was the last year this contest was held, because of the two finalists, one died, and the other suffered horrible injuries and almost died aswell. So they cancelled this competition after this one last fatal event.

The rules were simple:

• The starting temperature is 110 degrees Celsius. Half a litre of water will be poured on the stove every 30 seconds.
• Use of alcohol is prohibited prior to and during the competition.
• Competitors must wash themselves beforehand, and remove any creams and lotions.
• Competitor must sit erect, their buttocks and thighs on the bench.
• Ordinary swimsuits must be used. Pant legs in men's swimsuits may be up to 20 centimetres long, and women's shoulder straps may be up to 5 centimetres wide.
• Hair that reaches the shoulders must be tied into a ponytail.
• Touching the skin and brushing is prohibited.
• Competitors must not disturb each other.
• At the request of the judges, competitors must show that they are in their senses with a thumbs up.
• Competitors must be able to leave the sauna unaided to qualify.
• A breach of the rules results in a warning. Another one results in disqualification.
• The last person leaving the sauna unaided is the winner.

The two finalists had worked their way through 130 other contestants, two days of grueling single elimination “who can outlast the other on the sauna bench” brackets. And only two men were left standing: Russia’s Vladimir Ladyzhenskiy and Finland’s Timo Kaukonen, soon to be known everywhere as Sauna Timo
