Because it's "wordless" thought I would explain here! "Bokdrol Spoeg" is a sport in some parts of Africa. In the competition, small hard pellets of dung from antelope are spat with the furthest distance being the winner! The distance is measured from the marker to the place the dung pellet comes to rest, rather than where it hits the ground. The world record in the sport is a distance of 15.56 metres set in 2006 by a Mr Shaun Van Rensburg! This another one of the crazy things P got up to on our week-end at the game farm!
PS Before you FAINT from shock, the dung is consists mainly of grass!

Oh my goodness! I have heard of this but never seen it! Still wouldn't try it even though it's mainly grass! Yuk!

Well I did gather that it involved spitting. But as long as it is "mainly" that still means there's "some!"

Spitting antelope's dung? Luckily you mentioned the dung is made mainly of grasses. But then the idea of spitting it from the mouth is still not too present. :)

For a Afrikaans booitjie like myself it should probably be second nature, but I have never tried it.
