そのようなアメリカ人

[mrbob952]

lol... such americans...

[drseang]

cool! i' m going soon! where did you take this from? which building?

[Hawkysmom]

@drseang We were in a street overpass between two malls, I think. I'm took the video from that overpass/bridge. AND it was raining outside. If it's not, you'll probably see even more people crossing!

[nycguy925]

if only this was a mosh pit

[nhocxinh2310]

woa~~~

[bigblackracoon]

Damn and I thought times square was crowded but this makes it look deserted. >.>

[Statatistafunk]

[1003504748]

[theman211294]

Thats like the easiest place for a terrorist attack

[HoukouAoi123]

Not interesting.

[Hawkysmom]

[musicquatic92]

[mangoo4ever]

0:32 - 0:38 That's what she saaaaaid!

[cheeriosinabowl]

I was in Tokyo a few years ago --- enjoyed it 100%.

After awhile, you will get used to the big crowds. You won't even notice it.

[Hawkysmom]

@cheeriosinabowl

I can't wait to go back!

[KalashDave]

spartans............hoooooohaa­aaaaaaa !!!!!!!!!!

[Terri2799]

Have never seen a crosswalk this crowded. Madness!

[Hawkysmom]

Thanks for looking! :-)

[78kokka]

That's crazy. Pure awesomeness  *_*

[fidodido411]

And they say India is fucking crowded.. 0.o

[tanahirotana]

渋谷は凄い

うｐ主様、ありがとうございました

[TheOwllicker]

i would hate to be the last person , i wounder how many people have bean hit there... because they look like they don't care if your still trying to cross

[kat10kat2]

wow..... peoplein america should learn from this anf walk more!!! i wish we had this type of crosswalk......so much easier...japoan is fucking amazing

[youronebiggestfan]

they should put a giant tv screen programming some tv show or a movie facing the drivers so they wont get bored while waiting

[lol2424242424]

in america 37 people would have already been run over

[RicanX5]

someone should throw a rock

[SoraCloud9]

they all look like dots from a painting

[redporus]

so what are the pedestrian crossings for lol

[Cyproduction]

You could do some proper crowd surfing XD

[TenouHaruka0]

Amazing how close people can be to each other without feeling uncomfortable. (Or maybe they do but just deal with it). The "Tokyo Train Crush" is another good example. If someone sits next to me when theres an open seat further away, i'd be like "ummm wtf is wrong with you?". But I suppose in other parts of the world, choosing to sit far away when you don't have to is considered rude.

[Tyranous12]

I was there last april and let me tell you is crazy. A lot of people is like little ants walking from one side to the other!

[CriticalAggression]

Did anyone see the yellow car on left. Pro driving skillz!

[slytherindav]

Man, I thought times square had a lot of people.

[GamoKTnPateraTuTube]

00:00 ATTAAAAAAAAAACK...!!!!

[AirborneProductionss]

lol thats just "A" Crosswalk!

[hansonkewl06]

why don't they build a bridge or subway or something at this intersection?

[109mytiger]

@hansonkewl06  under the crossing is subways and shopping mall.

[NellaRosmarino]

It's like a moshpit :'o

[fisarmonicista]

wow, I wouldn't like to live in Japan

[chinagansta]

@fisarmonicista either would i

[emperorbanzai]

これは外国人の方を驚かせる為のアトラクションです

ここに映っている人たちは皆、一回千円で日本政府に雇われたエキ­ストラです

[fisarmonicista]

@emperorbanzai I wouldn't agree with you :P

[agenthelios]

This may seem odd to Americans, but I am American and spent time in Tokyo and trust me, you either need to get in step quickly with Tokyo life or you will not last. People there are great. Great culture, people and NIGHTLIFE!

[RottenStrawberryP]

That's MAD! So many people! :O

[harukaX6]

HOLY CRAP!

[itachi91422]

wow fuller then N.Y New Years well little less but close

[Absynthesized]

"Save our Space Ship Mother Earth!"

[1977sannasimone]

Shibuya is fantastic!!!!!

[StunnaHard123]

LMAO im like laughing right now.

Japan is insane as man.

[0rgazim]

STOP BREADING!!!!! WTF

[cam2540]

At least there is a lot of walking traffic! there are hardly any cars!

[happyboyy8k]

I don't know why they not making skyway...I think Japanese smart enough to build that or even more. Hope that they can find better way for everyone. Peace.

[mexiacn100boy]

they look like ants

[guardman12345]

dang, its like an army out there!!!!!!!!

[justmymage]

tokyo is a kick arse cy but many people choose to walk because they dont want to use public transport, since all the pervs ad etc (molestating/rapes)

[shishio54]

Tokyo,Japan is the coolest city ever... fucking insane!!

[ebonynaire1992]

I KNOW!!!!!  I so want to go there one day.

[VJ87G]

@ebonynaire1992, so do I.

[chinagansta]

@shishio54 fuck u thats because u are jap

[ParadoxLC]

Isn't Tokyo the most populated metropolitan area in the world?

[Wanderas01]

lol wtf xD

[ParadeeddLeTube]

RIOT RIOT RIOT!!

[Arekai1404]

lol easteregg @ 0:54 u see it?

[Trucker9er9er]

wtf? is that car going backwards?

[Arekai1404]

yep ^^

[masatje]

It makes you wonder, where do all these people come from? Do they ever go home? XD

Also an amusing sight was when I walked from the Imperial Palace to Tokyo Tower. You will pass through an area with government buildings. At around lunch time you are simply engulfed by a sea of white, and by white I mean the color of the shirts all those civil servants are wearing, heading out for lunch.

[kelvenhadley]

jet set radio future shibuya terminal

[mcredsox16]

if you lose a kid your never fucking finding them. i bet alot of pick pocketers do work in the middle of that mess.

[dlferich]

people crossed the street like this in sydney

[thinkinrich]

alot alot better than india

[hilaxthetrain]

how long do you actually have to wait for the light go green? 5 hours? :p

[Hawkysmom]

It really doesn't take that long till the light changes. Maybe a little longer than usual, but not much longer.

[kukubird92]

@hilaxthetrain image those are gangsters...they are fighting

[zeldaocarinaoftime2]

the scamble crossing is crazy

[StylistecS]

DAMN.

[tmphunk]

How many people you think you would get if you run the read light? Not to mention the cops chasing you.

[Hawkysmom]

Although, I think your comment is pretty sick, I heard that an average of 1,500 people cross per light.

[tmphunk]

ok so i would get at least 100 with a trailer if go and make it flip (roll) right before i hit them. !500 is alot for a cross walk at one turn. Maybe a few aks would do the trick along with a few grenades.

I am not going the actually do it its just a what if thing. ok ok its wrong but i just saw heat about a week ago and for some reason this video reminded me of that movie so like i said what if.

[goodsfood]

get out the swords and shields and it could be a epic battle lmao

[wachmekillu]

too right lol.

[zexion65]

omg the car is going backwards at the end! 0.0

[Hawkysmom]

I've got to tell you, with all the thousands of people who have viewed this and the bunch who made comments, you are the only person who mentioned that car (or truck) going backwards. I have no idea why it did that. I probably didn't notice until much later at home.

[zexion65]

lol

[ChrisCashNYC]

Ok when does Godzilla pop out?

[gunnerboy773]

lol

[MavmanFilms]

LOL That's a good one!

[guardman12345]

hahahHHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHHAHAHHA­loLOLOLOLMAO

[OoZ06kuwaitoO]

@ChrisCashNYC LooooooooooL xDDDD fukin funny 

[Bastardo48]

thats like the pop of the usa

[LegendsXXboy]

hahahawhahwhahwha wtf!!!

[chelebell33]

I was there last year. Its really quite exciting. Sensory overload. We went when they were trying to run a parade through that traffic.

[rontayan]

Yeah I just did 17 days in Tokyo and I hung out in Shibuya all the time. Shibuya Crossing is fun, and not bad at all. Everyone makes sure to to bump into you.

[rawrclaire]

THATS AMAZING.

[Headings]

its not that bad when ur actually down there tho. a bit squishy but not bad :3

[gegeomega]

wow its like another world

[bastebub]

its a freakin nightmare...

[MirageMC]

It's very insane!!!

[herbalvegas]

this is the second most famous sidewalk in the world after the 'abbey road' sidewalk made famous by the beatles...

[Chocheonline]

Man, the beatles were overrated.

[Hawkysmom]

No, the Beatles were NOT overrated! My parents said their music wouldn't last . . . over 40 years ago . . . Beatles music is still very popular and relevant and just plain GOOD!!!

[kang1996]

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[skipca]

thats a pickpockets dream right their

[nsangueza]

agreed

[vincentweb]

ya i think i'll lost too..

[ck1ll3rbr]

lol moms hold their kids tight!

you can get lost 3 times in less than a min within this mob!

[nsangueza]

possibly even 5! haha

[mlps93]

They showed this in Tokyo Drift, is insane XD

[KamikazeSound]

I see why they call it the shibuya scramble

[G4rF13LD88]

i cant help imagining what would happen if some guy ignored the pedestrians and the traffic laws and just peeled out through that crosswalk. It would be TERRIBLE

[Doooolan]

Great fun

[DeathByMercy]

watch tokyo drift, haha. same scene.

[G4rF13LD88]

yeah, but they all clear out in time

[genoryvanz]

i like the downtown...i like the aura of it!!!

[Kens01]

haha, that crosswalk is so insane when you're in it! I just visited Japan this last summer with some classmates =]

[voon100]

Come on Japan. You have all the advances in technology the West would envy. Why don't you build a foot path or an underground path to keep everyone happy.

[vs900com]

Actually we already have huge underpath (I would say "Underground Mall") on this crossing but it is also too crowded under there...

[AnarchistGoth]

i would have a panic attack if i was in one of those DX

like im walking with a friend and suddenly the crowd takes me somewhere else and im like "OMG WHERE AM I?!"

[10Xcrazy]

i been there last summer and i ate takoyaki it was good but didnt fill me up and i ate 20 of them and they were good.

[zxcv1234vcxz]

Look at this video and then other videos of pedestrians and traffic in Asian countries. The Japanese are the only ones who stop at red lights and don't try to push through pedestrians with their bumpers.

[Hawkysmom]

Yes, you're right. I noticed that the Japanese, typically, are really polite.

[caliilca]

wow thats crazy i wana go there one day

[Hawkysmom]

Tokyo is a cool place to visit, although I like Kyoto more. It's so beautiful and . . . spiritual. Both places were great for taking pictures and that's what I really like to do. Hope you make it there one day.

[Tforgiven12]

i live right near shibuya. I hate shibuya though way to many people.

[OptimusP]

YOU = idiot who can't even spell japanese.

good job.

[FZeton]

Whats the hurry free Wiis!!!!LoL

[tio0o]

holy shit :|

[johnnysamoa]

cool now swing by and see my shibuya vid lol

[gabuchan123]

This is Shibuya actually.

[Hawkysmom]

Isn't that what I wrote?

[tvimolnit]

Hawkysmom....get out and see the world.

[Prezsama]

SOO busy and crazy

[leosmythe]

Too cool for words - :)

[leosmythe]

Hi Hawkysmom - and to think I was there when you took this.

[Hawkysmom]

You were there when I video'd it? Can you see yourself? :-P Wouldn't that be cool!

[mixodu]

omg 1500 people :O i never,ever seen so many people cross a intersection :)) awsome anyway

[Valcy]

omg!!!! there are more people on that street than in all my Country!!!

[Hawkysmom]

Hi there! We just saw a show on Tokyo and they said that 1500 people can cross the intersection at the light!

[28prosinac]

Well...

This guy lives in country Slovenia.

There live one million people! :)

[Hawkysmom]

Yeah, but do 1,500 people cross the street in one place at one time?

The part of Los Angeles I live in has almost 1 1/2 million people,3,819,951 in all of Los Angeles,United States (Population of US: 301,139,947) but I don't think we have 1,500 cross at one time anywhere in the US.

[gijf430]

because Americans don't like walking haha

[Arekai1404]

win xD

[PrincessSaphira]

awesome XD
