Amateur sumo wrestlers hold babies during a baby crying contest at Sensoji temple in Tokyo May 30, 2015. In the contest two wrestlers each hold a baby while a referee makes faces and loud noises to make them cry. The baby who cries the loudest wins. The ritual is believed to aid the healthy growth of the children and ward off evil spirits. One hundred and twenty children took part in the event, the organiser said. REUTERS/Thomas Peter
