Zorb in New Zealand is the latest craze! The definition from the 'Concise Oxford English Dictionary' Tenth Edition: a sport in which a participant is secured inside an inner capsule in a large, transparent ball which is then rolled along the ground or down hills.
So basically, a Zorb is a large inflated plastic ball, with another ball inside in which you roll down a hill—reaching speeds of up to 50 kilometres per hour! Zorb is very safe, as there is a cushion of air between you and the ground.
Why not try the wash cycle and add a bucket of water.
Just strap yourself in, then roll down the hill!
