(KUTV) You might be surprised at the latest craze that is hitting the Wasatch Front--throwing axes for fun.
And you can do it at Social Axe Throwing, with locations in Ogden and Salt Lake City.
Brayden Floyd came up with the idea a year and a half ago after he saw a YouTube video with Game of Thrones actor, Jason Momoa, who throws an axe.
"I'm like, 'What did I just watch? What is this?'" Floyd said.
He brought his idea to his dad, Mark Floyd, who thought he was a little crazy at first.
"'That's not going to work. Who's going to pay to throw an ax?'" Mark recalled saying.
But the two decided to build their own target and try it out. At first, it didn't work.
"We throw an axe at it--nothing. It drops," Brayden said.
But then they switched to a larger axe and it stuck on the first throw.
