Every year nearby the village of Brunsbüttel on the River Elbe hosts The Mud Olympics.
During this event, teams compete in all kinds of sports,
from football to handball, but all in mud.

The Mud Olympics are wet, dirty and diabolical,
but most of all they are hysterically funny, an exhausted parade of 'athletes'
who compete not just for the best sporting performances, but also for
the titles of Funniest Team Name, Best Fans and Most Comical Team.

This story looks at the chaos and comedy of the Mud Olympics, capturing the characters who make it
Germany's funniest festival of sport.
