""Toughness contests are a traditional part of Polish recreational life,"
Either these guys were one noodle short of a brain, or this is a joke meant to
throw people off. never in my whole life did I even hear, and my familys from
Poland, my dad wasnt taught any thing like this, and if it was true, it was isolated
incident which I am sure those boys got life imprisonment for their stupidity.
if you believe this, your gullible. like Giles said, only those countries which
we have seen proof of this, and thats because its their govts laws, or their
not punished like normal people are in civilization. example Saddam who had
control and did whatever he wanted till he was stopped, and I think they only
did it because the whole planet was watching to see what would happen to
such a sick man. he got away with to much for to long.
but no, never ever have I heard of such a game or even a thought like this of
anyone polish and Ive always had strong impressions that Poland was based
on Traditions and Culture and has and always will be Peaceful nation!
