An unusual competition held in China recently has left many Chinese scratching their heads.

Seated in a variety of postures on neatly laid out purple mattresses, about 55 people, the youngest aged 5, faced off in a “daze” competition in Changzhou’s Hong Mei Park on March 20, according to Changzhou Daily, a local newspaper in the coastal province of east China.
