Many people hate ironing  they said that’s very boring.But if ironing happen

on very attractive and dangerous place…Extreme Ironing (or EI) is an extreme

sport and a performance art in which people take an ironing board to a remote

location and iron a few items of clothing. According to the official website,

extreme ironing is "the latest danger sport that combines the thrills of an extreme

outdoor activity with the satisfaction of a well-pressed shirt."Part of the attraction

and interest the media has towards extreme ironing seems to centre on the issue

of whether it is really a sport or not. It is widely considered to be tongue-in-cheek.

Some locations where such performances have taken place include a mountainside

of a difficult climb; a forest; in a canoe; while skiing or snowboarding; on top of

large bronze statues; in the middle of a street; underwater; whilst parachuting;

and under the ice cover of a lake. The performances have been conducted solo

or by groups.
