When it comes to his chosen extreme sport, Matt Crolla is officially a big cheese. And the 28-year-old says his only preparation for becoming a champion was to be "an idiot".
Matt won the first race. The women's race was won by Delaney Irving who was knocked unconscious as she chased the cheese. Matt and other competitors hurled themselves down the almost vertical Coopers Hill in Brockworth near Gloucester.Rubbing his shoulder after the race he said: "I'm glad I'm pretty conscious and I've not got many serious injuries.
This year's women's champion Ms Irving, 19, from Vancouver Island in Canada, said the race was "good... now that I remember it". "I remember running, then bumping my head, and then I woke up in the tent," she said. "I still don't really believe it, but it feels great. Another international winner was Ryoya Minami from Japan. Asked why he entered the race, he replied "because I love cheese".
