Australia prides itself on its sporting prowess. It's a nation that likes to compete and likes to win.
When it comes to weird competitions, Aussies become even more determined to triumph.

These 10 wacky events are worth journeying to in 2012.
1. Tunarama
Australia Day, January 26, Port Lincoln, South Australia
Fisherman in Port Lincoln brag not only about how big their fish are, but how far they can throw them.
At Tunarama, tunas weighing between eight and 10 kilograms are hurled in a fashion after Olympic hammers.
No wonder the current record of 37.23 meters belongs to former Olympian Sean Carlin.
