No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

First of all, tell everyone the date and the headline on a piece of newspaper that you're holding.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

And then you just have to say who we are, what the show is, and then we'll get into some facts.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

I've got a good one.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

Nice to see you all after a long week that we've had since the last one of these that we did.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

Yeah, I barely remember what you guys look like.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

Well, actually, cast your minds back all that time.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

We were talking about sumo wrestlers, and I have a fact here about sumo from Matthew Bright.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

Matthew says that each year, professional sumo tournaments in Japan consume about 4,000 kilograms of salt.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

They throw salt.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

Yeah, so this is what Matthew's worked out.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

So each tournament lasts 15 days, and they're held six times a year.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

And each tournament consumes about 650 kilograms of salt, according to a journalist, which Matthew found.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

And then if you work that all out, it's 4,000 kilograms.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

And the salt is like to purify the ring.

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

interesting um and for like you say ceremonial reasons and yeah does it grit it as well does it give you good because a lot of it is about holding your stance you're absolutely right but the ring itself is like made it's got sand in it anyway i think which means it's quite well gritted but it can't hurt yeah especially on a cold day yeah

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

Why has that not been done?

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

I mean, that has to be a thing, doesn't it?

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

Have you ever been walking around London and just seen the sumo wrestlers?

No Such Thing As A Fish
Little Fish: Accordion To Whom?

He looked like that, probably.
