Mobile Phone Throwing

While I often feel like throwing my mobile phone across the office for various reasons, it was only last weekend that I realized it had become something of a sport. The UK Mobile Phone Throwing Championships are being held on 20th August in London. It costs £5 to enter and for that you get 3 throws. Apparently the world record is 94.97m which is quite staggering. I’m already wondering what the optimum characteristics of a “throw phone” would be. It’s all in a good cause and a great pre-cursor to the 2012 Olympics…
