Prepare For a Shock! This Video is a Top Recommended on YouTube Japan



This particular video is on the top rotation for recommended video in Japan as of this very moment. It is a video that shows a tattoo convention in Columbia with some pretty horrible piercings (I mean like meat hook size piercings)...


Call me old-fashioned but I was blown away that this was a highly recommended video on YouTube Japan....

Many of the comments (written in Japanese, of course) were things like; "This makes me sick just watching it."


But, regardless of what I think, tattoos and piercing are extremely popular among young Japanese today... I once asked a young guy why he had some many tattoos all over his body and he replied, "I want to be different!" To which I said, "You mean like all your friends..."


He answered, "Yeah!"





This is a video taken from a tattoo convention in Columbia. of the International Tattoo Convention. I think it is disgusting... But, I reckon that, this is what 20-somethings like these days.


I can't embed this video as it is locked... Doubt that I would embed it even if I could.


Watch the video at your own risk:

  3. That's some mighty self control and pain / stress / fear management. Maybe you can't appretiate it, but it takes a lot of discipline and skill to be able to do that.

  4. Zanchito is right. I figure these guys & girls must have some VERY incredible mond control! This freaks me out but there are lots of things in this world that freak me out and this wouldn't be one f the most extreme, I think.

Comments must be succinct & relevant to the story. Comments are checked frequently and abusive, rude or profane comments will be deleted. I’m just one of many bloggers who answer questions online and sometimes for the press. I usually handle questions about Japan, marketing or the economy, so in those areas I’m more likely to make sense and less likely to say something really stupid. If I post something here that you find helpful or interesting, that’s wonderful. This is my personal blog. If you don't like what you have read here then, just like when you go into a restaurant or bar that allows smoking, if you don't like it, there's something at the front that has hinges on it and it is called a "door."
