If I had known this was a sport when I was younger, I'd be a world champion by now.
Spoon & Tamago informs us that there was a "spacing out" competition in Tokyo. For an hour and a half, competitors lay still and did nothing at all--or as close to nothing as they could manage--while not falling asleep.
Officials monitored their heart rates and disqualified anyone who talked or slept during the contest. Athletes who wore impressive costumes and kept empty facial expressions received extra points.
The winners were a team who evidently knew how to work together to accomplish as little as possible.
