Imagine eating ice cream in this scorching heat as cold bubbles cool your feet. Heavenly isn't it?

Wuhan, a city in Central China that is experiencing high temperatures, decided to do exactly this on Sunday when it held a competition where participants were asked to team up in pairs, with one standing on one leg while carrying the other on the back or in arms. Whoever finished eating the ice cream cone first would win the prize.
