A Finnish teenager has smashed the world record -- and probably his phone -- in this year's annual mobile-phone throwing contest in Finland.
Eighteen-year-old Ere Karjalainen launched a phone the "amazing" distance of 101.46 metres, Finnish public television network YLE said after Saturday's event.
Second place went to South African Jeremy Gallop, who threw a phone 94.67 metres.
According to contest organisers, the competition offers mobile phone users a unique opportunity to "pay back all the frustrations and disappointments caused by these modern equipments."
Finland is the home of Nokia and is awash in obsolete phones, organisers said.
"There will be no doping tests," organisers said on their English website.
"However the jury can rule out the contestant if his/her mental or physical preparedness is not adequate for full a performance."
The event has been held in the southeastern town of Savonlinna since 2000.
在芬兰举行的年度扔手机大赛中,芬兰一位青少年打破世界纪录夺冠,当然他扔出的手机也粉身碎骨。
据芬兰公共电视网芬兰广播公司报道,在上周六的比赛中,18岁的埃林•卡尔亚莱宁把手机扔出惊人的101.46米远,获得冠军。
获得第二名的是南非人杰里米•盖洛普,他的成绩是94.67米。
据比赛主办方介绍,比赛给了手机使用者一个难得的机会“发泄手机带来的烦恼和失望”。
主办方说,诺基亚公司总部位于芬兰,芬兰到处都是废弃的手机。
主办方在英文网站上说:“扔手机比赛中可不用药检。”
“但如果选手在精神和体力方面的准备不足以完成比赛,裁判可以拒绝他参赛。”
自2000年开始,比赛每年在芬兰东南部小镇萨翁林纳举行。
