I Lived in a Sumo House for a Day (10,000 calorie diet, fights, sleepover...)

We gained rare access to a Japanese sumo stable, where we observed intense training, learned about the wrestlers’ disciplined lives, and took part in a practice bout. We shared their high-calorie meal and learned about their communal living, traditions, and ambitions. One of us stayed overnight at the stable, building friendships with the wrestlers and experiencing their generosity and kindness firsthand.
