Unique camera view of a famous Tetbury woolsack race

Sam Arrowsmith, from London, was in Tetbury for the weekend and was persuaded to take part himself.

He found himself in the first men's individual heat, alongside current World Champion Pete Roberts, with our camera strapped to his chest.

"It was a bit harder than I thought but as I nearly caught the second bloke it felt ok," he said. "It's a really good laugh and I'd probably do it again."
