The ultimate celebration of facial sports
Since ancient times the Olympics have been the games for the world’s most elite athletes. The athletes that train all year, sacrifice their lives for sports and seek immortally with one ultimate goal. The Gold Medal. But we live in a new age. That is why we give everyone the chance to bathe in glory and compete. Instead of testing their physique, they will compete against one another using only one part of their body. Their face.
The rules couldn’t be simpler. Using only the neck-up, facial athletes flex and stretch the muscles they’ve trained day in and day out to test their might in various sports. From face marathon to face baseball and even wasabi side-steps, “Facial Athletes” has featured over 30 sports to push facial athletes to their limits, while guaranteeing wholesome humor to spectators.
“Facial Athletes” is an entertainment format that offers a new fun competition to paint a smile on your faces.
