Taking a Spill with ‘Islendingadunk’ in Gimli

Gimli Icelandic Festival

A man takes a spill into the water at the Gimli Harbour during the Gimli Icelandic Festival over the weekend during the Islendingadunk competition. Two combatants sit on a soap-lubricated plastic pole suspended over the water. The object is to bat your opponent off the pole and into the water using a wet sack filled with sponge. The 124th Icelandic Festival of Manitoba wraps up today. (STAN MILOSEVIC / CHRISD.CA)
