I used to work for a Japanese company and had been in Tokyo a few times, always for business. I haven't been to Japan for about 8 years now though.

ROFL this is so wrong but soooo funny.
Wow, how is the train service soooo efficient and on time when these things happen X_X... I mean wow I complain when the New York Metro trains here get packed and I decide I will just wait for the next one but wooow thats insanely packed, there going to be like lack of oxygen inside of those carts...
Note: the guys who recorded the videos were so messed up laughing hahah  |
LOL Then I'm totally messed up cause I couldn't stop laughing. Why didn't the dude just wait?! I know that Tokyo is a fast-paced city, but c'mon!  _________________
