Israel -- Giggling and smiling, 13 sumo wrestlers bobbed in the Dead Sea on Thursday, happily weightless in the salt-and mineral-rich water.
The swim was part of the wrestlers' trip to Israel, meant to strengthen ties between Japan and the Jewish state.
The wrestlers warmed up by doing flips into a beach-side pool before venturing down to the water's edge. Before a delighted crowd of 30 onlookers, they slopped mud on their bodies and floated in the sea, whose mineral properties make it impossible to sink.
