Hands on a Hard Body: The Documentary (1997)
Great film

S.R. Bindler's Hands on a Hardbody is the best "truth is stranger than fiction" documentaries I've ever seen. It's subjects are all vying to take home a new Nissan Hardbody truck by keeping one hand on it at all times (except for 5 minute breaks every hour and a 15 minute break every 6 hours). On top of that, no squatting or even leaning is allowed. Obviously you've got to be a little insane to participate in something like this and the 24 contestants from Longview, TX could certainly be described as such. In the course of the film, we get to know a little about these people who, despite their oddities, are generally quite likable.
All-in-all, if you can find a way to see this movie, do.
