There's so many things off about this extreme "sport" it's hard to find a starting point. First off, does anyone actually iron anymore? and if so wouldn't a person want to make it as easy as possible instead of raising the difficulty level? With extreme ironing the object is to iron while doing other sports like rock climbing, ski diving, bungee jumping and various other climbing / hiking sports. That brings about another question, doesn't an iron still need to be plugged in? and if not how is it getting warm enough to do any good if you are packing it around on your person? The history of this insanity started in 1997 when a man in England came home to a heap of ironing and decided to take it and his ironing board to the rock climbing wall and odd as it may seem extreme ironing somehow caught on.
