Who among us doesn't love a decent bite of cheese every now and again? Such is apparently the case for American Idol host Ryan Seacrest, who took a fairly brutal tumble on the latest episode of Wheel of Fortune.
On the April 3 episode of the popular game show, Seacrest introduced viewers to the Gloucestershire Cheese Rolling Festival, an annual celebration in the United Kingdom first written about in the early 19th century.
“I found my new favorite festival," Seacrest started off by telling co-host Vanna White. "Participants race down the hill chasing after a wheel of cheese. In the end, you get the cheese. So, what could be better?”

Eager to test out their own miniature cheese-rolling competition, White broke out a fake wheel of cheese for Seacrest to run after. When White asked if Seacrest was ready to try it out, Seacrest confidently told Wheel of Fortune's longtime star, "I was born for this."
Rolling the wheel across the stage, Seacrest rocketed after the cheese, hurling himself arms first to try to pin the wheel to the ground. Unfortunately for the famed New Year's Rockin' Eve presenter, Seacrest overshot his mark and fell forward, sprawling on his hands and knees across the sound stage.
After appearing momentarily nervous about Seacrest's condition, White shouted after Seacrest, "Oh, no! Are you okay?" In response, Seacrest promptly shot up to his feet, triumphantly clutching the wheel of cheese in one hand. Returning to White's side, the crowd made their voices heard by clapping and loudly cheering for Seacrest.
Seacrest's cheese-run comes little over a month before the official Gloucestershire Cheese Rolling Festival on May 26. A yearly tradition that's estimated to date back over 600 years, the winner of the event is whoever reaches the bottom of the festival's steep hill first. Though a wheel of cheese leads the way, the dairy product hurtles down the hill at speeds of 80 mph -- making it extremely unlikely anyone can lay hands on it before it reaches the bottom.
