54 Photos That Prove Japan Is Not Like Any Other Country

I have double thoughts about it. Part of me, thinks this is awsome and effective, but the othe other part thinks that, if you don't make regular people uncomfortable too, you make less impact and the people might not want to support your cause because for them, the protest is only beneficial. If everyone's uncomfortable, everyone will be like "Oh, give them what they want, so this can f***ing end!" But then, again, not everyone is the same, and my appreciation for this kind of striking is prevailing. So, I praise these drivers.

Vote it up if you like it, 'cause blind people can't.

every blue bag filled should be a rewarded with a free ticket to the next match

The bay is so cute..

you know what ya get in the UK? toast. I mean, it's damn good toast, but...

We the current water scarcity this idea should be incorporated every where

In My country, these would get stolen :/

Japanese here...Every school do have custodians though...the students certainly don't clean the teachers' restrooms... and the custodian usually take care of the garden area too.

And this is why I plan to move to Japan.

I love their bullet trains! You'll barely feel it's already moving...

i need this in my country

well, if you're going to make a really fast train, you gonna need to make sure the rails are flat and smooth too.

Exactly like the trains in England 😂

Great ride but I don't recommend trying to sightsee from it. Landscape moves so fast that your brain can't process it well. Plus you hit tunnels with no warning at all so it is a shock.

Elevators in Japan are just as smooth. A coin will remain standing from beginning to end.

I'm curious: Was the coin placed before starting or once the train was already up to speed? Is the launch smooth enough not to drop the coin?

The bullet trains are very nice, i hope the people don’t take them for granted.

So is in China.

Unbelievable!!

There is a special ice cream sold inside the bullet train. I advise trying to eat it.

I recently took the TGV (French high speed train) in France. While I neglected to give it a similar “penny” test, it was an extremely smooth ride with an unnoticeable acceleration. I’m sure all countries that have these particular trains have the exact same train. So, not just Japan. It would be helpful for this article to point this out. Otherwise, it appears disingenuous.

Why is our transportation system so antiquated and yet we call ourselves the richest country in the world? We have been sold a bill of goods by our govt. Where are all of our $$$'s going?

was the train stationary?

Add to this the bullet train has not has a single fatality in its entire history.

All true! Japan....I salute you!

So this is b******t but the shinkansen is still very nice.

I LOVE the bullet train... til it passes another bullet train going the other direction. It's very dramatic.

Awesome!

😂😂😂

It HAS to be that smooth or the rhythmic vibrations and motions would eventually tear it apart.

And yet they refuse to stop killing Whales.

wow!!

We have nothing to compare to it.

This is same for the euro star (high speed train that crosses the channel current world record holder)

I have used Shinkansen for 20 years but have never been able to do that. Which line? How long did the coin stand?

gasp! Like the Star trek transporter ---

the trains were still running after the first hydrogen bomb was dropped on Hiroshima--one man survived two bombings because he was in Hiroshima for the first and Nagasaki for the second

Wow

My husband's grandparents came from Japan. We want to visit Japan sometime primarily to ride the bullet train.

Wow. That's amazing.

apparently there was once a time when this sort of honesty ruled the world?

power in numbers

So clean that even fish can swim

First time I used this toilet I was slightly disconcerted by the accuracy of the water jet but pleasantly surprised by its effectiveness

And in escalators, they stay left (I think) if you'll just stand and if you'll walk you go right...

This is true in China as well. Makes for some great conversation time on long train rides!

why does snoop dogg need an umbrella? fo' drizzle.

thought it was tetris at first

Finally somewhere it happened!

Isn't it sticky note paper?

Cool 😉

They are cute but i hate the taste

In the Dominican Republic people can wait patiently too. And if a pregnant woman appears, they let her go to the front immediately.

Look how disciplined the Japanese dots are... and look at the others..haha
