Turkey oil wrestling

In this Sunday, July 15, 2018 photo, participants slap their thighs as they are introduced to the crowds during the 657th annual Kirkpinar Oil Wrestling Festival in Edirne, northwestern Turkey. Every summer, hundreds of men, known as pehlivan, a word associated with strength in Turkish _ don nothing but intricately decorated, long leather shorts and generously pour olive oil over each other's backs, arms, and legs.
