On your mark, get set and roll! There are many races out there. However, there is nothing like racing professionally in an office chair.

We’re not kidding! There are real people out there that race office chairs. The annual chair races are set in Germany called The Office Chair Racing World Championship. This race sees participants reach speeds of up to 30mph (that’s faster than a school zone!) in what has become one the fastest growing sports in Germany.

To protect themselves from harm, the office chair racing participants where crash helmets, knee and elbow protectors. This year’s race sets off May 6, 2012. To see more Office Chair Racing, click here to see professional Office Chair Racing videos!
