Canadian Cheese Rolling Festival

Due to the steepness and uneven surface of the hill there are usually a number of injuries. A first aid service is provided by the localSt John Ambulance at the bottom of the hill, with a volunteer rescue group on hand to carry down to them any casualties who do not end up at the bottom through gravity. A number of ambulance vehicles attend the event, since there is invariably at least one, and often several injuries requiring hospital treatment. Cooper's Hill Cheese Rolling has been summarised as "twenty young men chasing a cheese off a cliff and tumbling 200 yards to the bottom, where they are scraped up by paramedics and packed off to hospital."

Although the cheese rolling festival officially recognized as early as 2010 was canceled because of the number because nearly 15,000 runners and spectators can hold far more than the hills, and the high-speed rolling hills, great cheese may be injured by the audience. However, all these years, still did not stop the local cheese traders who hold their own「chase」cheese game!

This ceremony originally took place each「Whit Monday」before later transferred to the Spring Bank Holiday. Two possible origins have been proposed for the ceremony. The first is said that it evolved from a requirement for maintaining grazing rights on the common. The second proposal is pagan origins for the custom of rolling objects down the hill. It is thought that bundles of burning brushwood were rolled down the hill to represent the birth of the New Year after winter. Connected with this belief is the traditional scattering of buns, biscuits and sweets at the top of the hill by the Master of Ceremonies. This is said to be a fertility rite to encourage the fruits of harvest.
