well if any machines go hard black asians okay all right get rid of this guy just start the video please japan is known as the land of the rising sun but it could also be known as the land of singing toilets or the country of the blue traffic light huh there are so many things that make it a whole other world get ready to explore one square watermelons they were invented back in the summer oh man i've tried to find this it's you have to like get it only in certain seasons square watermelons like why are we where you tried to get it no no no in japan oh okay yeah i'm jealous that you've been in japan you know i didn't really get to experience it properly i was coming to what to japan japan tokyo i mean we could for the olympics next year it could be a show you know that's awesome 100 000 likes wait why why didn't you get to explore it because i was i was too busy training for to fight joe it wasn't that long ago japanese farmers grow them in special containers to get the shape since they're pretty expensive they're just living in the future dude but rather as a dad just me that would want to like build a house out of space that's a mystery video you know i built a house out of watermelon is it is it mr beast if you're watching it build a house out of square water guaranteed so do you ask for a percentage do you allow black people to enter or not what the house of war oh okay all right no i i can feel no one wanted to answer that i was like i don't know what to say here two for 30 seconds the unison spa resort in hakone offers us guests the pretty unique experience of splashing around in a vat of pork soup and ramen noodles well this may sound crazy to many people many the japanese believe that soaking in such a bath is good for the skin because a broth made of pork is rich in collagen it's not halal farm i don't know about that one i don't know about that one i don't know who's not the one who's been telling them [Music] yeah it's horrific wassabi kitkat yeah i have heard of this i have heard of this but i bought something wheel it up listen to all the flavors they read them all out salt watermelon mango green tea and that's only a short list of the kat flavors you can try in japan which one would you try let me know down in the comments probably i'll snow too fake food yeah your basic specialists make this kind of food from plastic or wax and it looks just as delicious as the real one many restaurants use fake food to display their popular dishes in the windows and attract hungry clients usually these replicas cost much more than the dishes they imitate five rounds back in the 40s scientists brought a number of rabbits to okonoshima island to do some tests however later on the animals were freed and started to multiply now the island is full of them taking photos in a booth is nothing new but japan added its own exciting twist to this experience their photo booths called purakura allow you to edit photos right on the spot adding different backgrounds funny stickers or writings it's got a green screen a green screen photo booth that's kind of cool to be fair though i was agreeing with harry harry said uh harry said that it doesn't exist over here and i was like yeah to be fair though it doesn't yeah ah without a miscommunication seven people pushers subways and train stations get really overcrowded during rush i've seen this that's why the station staff and part-time workers have to perform the routine procedure of pushing people inside trees oh my god i've been trying to do that in london in the underground imagine going inside a building you can park and lock your umbrella just like you do with your bike now you can be sure no one will take it and you won't make a puddle on the floor if your umbrella is wet are people really stealing umbrellas officers not my surprise bro you'd actually be surprised man okay you imagine you were it was raining and you walked outside on this umbrella there you're nabbing the umbrella no i wouldn't see that's the difference between me and you harry that's the difference between me and you we are not the same i don't even own an umbrella if anything i'll just walk a bit faster to my destination so the answer to my question who would steal umbrellas harry harry nine millions of vending machines japan has more than five million of them mostly because they save time for people who work late hours which is a pretty common thing here besides japanese vending machines aren't just for snacks and soda you can buy basically anything from live lobsters to underwear to children live lobsters and vendor machines live lobster yeah that's a bit peak they can't be allowed for that long if they're in a vending machine they'll keep enough in a tub of water right they'll just like like they do the restaurants they keep them in like a tank yeah i need to do it after yeah that's that's crazy in 2015 godzilla was granted citizenship in tokyo's shinjuku ward wait what the authorities presented a special certificate stating his new residency it's a statue get him a job offer godzilla became the tourism ambassador it's an employee ahead 171 feet above the ground at toho that's my movie studio that made the original movie back in 1954 train delays make headlines punctuality is a really big thing here and train stations do everything possible to avoid a delay if a train is five minutes late the railway company might have to issue a delay certificate for railway workers and passengers who missed an important appointment and if the delay is longer than an hour then the railway company might give an official apology in newspapers what whoa could never mate they need to hear about them that would be i'll be so sick i rate that though that is it i think they do that like well silent karaoke this is a special microphone with a cone that you place over your mouth it muffles most of the sounds when you sing it was designed for people who don't want to wake up their neighbors and those who feel shy about belting their favorite tunes in public oh number 13. how's that silent disco karaoke karaoke mate oh so you can sing your favorite songs out loud without disturbing anyone else we would never do that as well over here bring on the noise complaints polite slurping well in many countries slurping is considered i take no in japan it's a way to show your appreciation hey yo there we go there we go showing appreciation all this time that's why i let you guys know when i'm eating i i don't mind it personally i don't mind it doing all you don't want him [ __ ] i i i don't have anything that means i appreciate you all no it means you appreciate the food and you guys as well then the chef will think that you don't enjoy the food or that it's cold good noodles 14. face napkins when you eat a burger it's never pretty because your mouth gets covered in ketchup or mustard owners of one fast food restaurant found a solution to this by serving burgers together with special napkins what's she doing to that burger fan she's not eating it oh she's fine right right that's what you do when you go down on the go like what's she doing they cover the faces of guests who feel a bit embarrassed about looking messy while eating 15. water-saving sinks they're located right over the toilet tanks the idea is simple first you wash your hands over the sink then the sink water goes straight into the toilet tank and finally you flush the toilet when you've done that water by using it in the sink as well aren't you no no you strange mayo no japanese mayo doesn't have any special recipe or ingredient but they don't eat it with salads meat or sandwiches in japan people usually use it as a topping for ice cream or on pancakes a chocolate sundae with mayo 17 naps at work in japanese culture dozing off at the workplace jj you you were born in the wrong country man you read loudly sleeping at work bro you you you should be japanese what am i doing in english this is just normal life for them oh my god that's why in a murray is so common and no one thinks it's a bad thing some people even fake it what 18 worlds escalator you can find it in the basement of moore's department store which is located in the city of kawasaki the escalator has only five steps and is only 33 inches tall what's the plan well that's one small step for a man okay 19.

what do they do since clients can choose to open the can hundred varieties of food that's a dub minimal overhead we're gonna need you working in the kitchen you just need to open the cans the village of nagoro used to have a population of 300 people but less than 40 residents live there now a local artist tsukumi ayano made over 300 life-sized dolls most of which look like former residents and they're located in various states of action for example there's a little classroom over them in the village school yeah there's this there's there's a big l there no i rate the effort it's just

make anything that's innocent not innocent that's what you do you're a bit of a creep you're a bit of a creeper it's common for japanese culture to avoid the number four because it's considered to be very unlucky that's why some buildings don't have a fourth floor and the number of guests to some event can't be four well i mean they're not watching this video traffic light they use a blue color instead of green for traffic lights the reason for that hides in their language historically there was only one word for both colors when traffic lights first appeared in the country they were as green as anywhere else but that green color was still called blue to make things right the government decided to use the bluest shade of green possible oh japanese kids learn how to clean in many schools because it's a part of their education they mop their classrooms in hallways do dusting i would hate that i feel for them [Music] train to get the most comfortable sightseeing experience this
