Youngsters take part in this fun sport - boxing while balancing on a pole above a paddling pool.

The activity, known as Muay Thalay or sea boxing, involves competitors donning head guards and boxing gloves before shuffling along the pole.

The winner is the person who can knock their opponent into the pond and stay on the pole longest.

The video was filmed during a competition in Chonburi eastern Thailand, on April 16, during the country's Songkran new year celebrations.

The filmer said: ''This sport is adapted from Muay Thai boxing. It's a fun and playful style that people can do at festivals.''
