Participants in the laziness championship have been lying down for 25 days and don’t think of giving up

It’s already the fourth week in Montenegro continues annual laziness championship. Participants lay almost motionless for more than 600 hours (25 days). Of the 21 participants, only seven remain, but no one is going to give up.
The competition for the title of the main lazy person started on August 18 in the resort town of Brezna. To get the main prize of 1000 euros, you need to outlast all your opponents.
All participants must remain horizontal and are not allowed to sit or stand. Participants are only allowed to rise to go to the toilet once every eight hours for 10 minutes. Lying down, you can read, watch movies and use gadgets. Eating and drinking can also only be done while lying down.
What is noteworthy is that last year the winner spent only 117 hours. Probably, this modest level surprised many potential participants, and this year they decided to show who the main lazy person is. The competition is already on its 26th day and is unlikely to end any time soon.
We all feel good, great, there are no health problems, we are pampered, all we can do is lie down.

The competition was launched in Montenegro 12 years ago to ridicule the popular myth that Montenegrins are very lazy, explained Radonja Blagojevic, one of the competition's organizers.
