When was bobsleighing very popular?
Bobsleigh is a winter sport in which a two or four member team use a sled on an iced track. Bobsleigh is a high speed and risky sport in which a number of fatal accidents have taken place. This sport is exclusively played in Northern Hemisphere, specially in Europe, North America and Russia. Germany has been the most successful nation in bobsleigh.
Who invented the first bobsleigh?
Although sledding on snow or ice had been popular in many northern countries, bobsleighing is a relatively modern sport. It originates from two crestas (skeleton sleds) being attached together with a board and a steering mechanism being attached to the front cresta. The beginnings of the Bobsleigh were humble, starting when English tourists were enticed to stay over the winter in the mineral spa town of St. Moritz, Switzerland by the successful marketing of hotelier Caspar Badrutt. Badrutt successfully 'sold' the idea of 'winter resorting' to some of his English regulars as he was annoyed with a four month long season for the rooms, food, alcohol and activities he sold. A year or two later some of his more adventurous English guests began adapting boys' delivery sleds for recreation and began colliding with pedestrians whilst speeding down the village's lanes, alleys and roads. The name of the sport appeared when competitors adopted the technique of bobbing back and forth inside the sled to increase its speed.
