- Published

Thousands of people armed with pillows have taken part in a giant feathery fight.
Take a look at some of the action...

Pillow fights took place in cities around the world to mark International Pillow Fight Day.

Feathers flew in central Budapest in Hungary...

in Taipei, Taiwan...

in Washington, DC in the US...

in Copenhagen in Denmark...

... and in the UK's capital city, London, as well as lots of other places.

Some were dressed up as famous cartoon characters and celebrities, like Spider Man...

... and others wore their pyjamas.

The event takes place every year.

It was started in 2005 by two students at the University of Toronto.

As crazy as the fight may appear to be, it has strict rules...

... the friendly fighters can only use fluffy pillows, they need have to take their pillow home and they can't hit anyone without a pillow or holding a camera.
