Wikipedia on Zorbing:

Zorbing is the practice of humans traveling in a sphere, generally made of transparent plastic, usually for fun. Sphereing or globe-riding is generally performed on a gentle slope, allowing the rider to roll downhill, but can also be done on a level surface, as well as on water, permitting more rider control.

I just love the “usually for fun” appended to the end of that first sentence. This got me thinking about all the other reasons that humans would travel in a sphere: lower carbon emissions on your commute, strong hamster fetish, or you just want to throw up in the messiest possible way.
