I thought I knew a lot about ironing, but apparently not. I found this recently on a site called Fact and a Photo.
Here's a quote from Wikipedia (click here to read the full article):
"Extreme Ironing (also called EI) is an extreme sport and a performance art in which people take ironing boards to remote locations and iron items of clothing. According to the Extreme Ironing Bureau, extreme ironing is "the latest danger sport that combines the thrills of an extreme outdoor activity with the satisfaction of a well-pressed shirt."[1]
Part of the attraction and interest the media has shown towards extreme ironing seems to centre on the issue of whether it is really a sport or not. It is widely considered to be tongue-in-cheek.[2]"
There was an Extreme Ironing World Championship in 2002. Or not :-).
I suppose my biggest question is what kind of iron is used in extreme ironing? I'm still hunting for the perfect iron…

The perfect iron is the one you buy today and use until it is no longer perfect and then you get another. It is a moving target sort of thing. Good luck

A friend brings one to our retreats in Pilot Point at Create Away Cottage and I love it…is a Reliable. They have several models and when my Rowenta dies, I’m ordering one of these. Looked for them at the Houston Show this year as I was wondering if they made one in a compact travel size but did not find any at all.
