My favourite messy wrestling match, guys in swim trunks and rubber swim caps wallowing around in sticky black molasses's, feathers added to make it more yukky!

I once stayed at as hotel in Munich which had its own mud bath spa. I think it once featured in a porn movie. But that was way back in 2001, its gone now :(
Aaah...forgot about these. They are from my sinking in mud sequence. Photos take waaay back in 2000 on the east coast of UK. Twenty years ago...wow!. This was taken after I submerged. A group of five of us had a good muddy August day out!.
It was a Lithuanian tv show around 2008 called 'Amber Lady' mainly about female honey wrestling, but they did some male stuff too. Clips are somewhere on YT
I've always liked seeing & wearing tight rubber swim caps in the mud etc. as well as for hair protection, I like the 'bald androgen' look of the old-school messy wrestling matches where wrestlers of both sexes often wore white caps while rolling around in rings filled with mud or sticky molasses.
From a book 'A Pictorial History of Wrestling' a mud fight held in Clapham, London in 1938, Mary Brewer vs Elmo Marcel , possibly a mixed match?. This is my favourite mud wrestling image, a large wrestling ring filled with sticky gooey clay coating both wrestlers as they roll around in it. And like the female mud wrestlers later in places like Hamburg in Germany in the 1960's, both are wearing swimsuits and rubber bathing caps for a wallow in the mud pit. I'd always fantasised about being one of them , emerging from the dressing room both of us looking a little androgenous in our bathing suits and tight rubber caps, about to have an erotic mud bath in front of a cheering audience.
