Japan recently had a winner in the world air guitar championships, but another virtual sport claiming a Japanese winner is air sex. For air guitar, competitors move around a stage alone and empty-handed while acting out the playing of a mean riff on their invisible axe. Similarly for air sex, competitors are alone on a stage, but instead act out sensual moves as if with a partner. J-Taro Sugisaku, the creator of air sex, says the sport began with guys who couldn’t get a girlfriend but wanted to have sex. Japan’s reigning champion is named Cobra, who performs frequent 8.5-minute routines. Incidentally, his girlfriend dumped him two days before winning the title. I’m hoping this photo is from the air guitar championship, but you never know!
