So, what exactly is zorbing? Well, let me tell you that I’ve started writing about half a dozen introductory sentences to explain it — and deleted them all. That’s because ‘rolling down a hill in a big plastic bubble’ just doesn’t do it justice.
And I don’t know whether to describe is as a sport, or a thrill-ride or an adrenaline-rush experience so basically, I’m going to leave it to the videos below to explain 🙂
