Oil Wrestling Competition - Turkey

Wrestlers compete at the 664th Oil Wrestling Competition in Edirne, Turkiye, on July 5, 2025. This unique wrestling has a history of hundreds of years. The contestants are shirtless, wearing only special leather pants, smearing olive oil all over their bodies, and competing on the slippery field. The main way to win is to press the opponent's back to the ground or tear his leather pants. Photo by Liu Lei/Xinhua/ABACAPRESS.COM
