Countdown to New Year 2012 in Tokyo, Helium Balloons, Zōjō Temple

[japarane]

does anyone know where these balloons can be bought? thanks! :)

[akito989]

I love it when they say 'Congratulations' together! <3

[VieTRaVeR]

a sea of phones, typical asians lol

[Bmw33newmoon]

Really America also pollutes the air but it's not that noticeable :p everyone is part of pollution seriously stop blaming eachother and start doing something! Or just hope u can float away like those balloons and hope you'll land on A new planet ... And We'll probably distroy that planet too.

[pistolerorenegado]

no fireworks? who cares, as long as everyone has a smartphone and a balloon

[ennabudz]

I like it!!

[bubbajay716]

@rantuv Nerd but I like it

[akito989]

SO many stupid people who can't read here...

[rantuv]

Actually the pollution from fireworks is far greater compared to this deriving from the biodegradable balloons. You can even collect the remainings of the balloons before their limited lifetime in nature, but how do you deal with the toxic compounds of strontium, barium, antimony and other heavy metals (released from fireworks) that tend to accumulate in marine organisms?

I'm not japanese but I like their style and as a chemist I clearly feel the different environmental impact.

[Invertshotz]

Read the comment below

[1523798]

They pollute nature and nature strikes back with a massive quake and yet they still polute more with balloons

[figbat1]

Happy New Year 2012 Japan !!

Greetings from France !! :)

[nsanegamr1]

A little lackluster for me. New york has a glowing ball and a concert, london has giant fireworks display, and japan has balloons.

[mikkiyamato]

日本人の友人に平和と輝かしい新年を持っている!!!!!!!N­I行くぜを倒角！

[xlaydeeeejay]

[ClassyBug]

[killianisaboss]

[bubbajay716]

[saywho9]

[soniclthelninja]

[wilby74]

Asa Akira wasn't there- had an interview with KassemG on the 30th December 2011.. Uh- she was with me on the next whole day & night.. Happy New Year to all..

[goodinfotoknow]

80ftdinosaurs will come out from underground; antichrist is a white gay man with red eyes; mark of the antichrist is a green electronic tattoo with sixes that is given when one stretches their hand to receive a new small gray world passport; ufos=demons=aliens=ascended masters=ghosts=channeled entities=dead relatives during seances; atlantis is underneath mariana trench; china will attack russia; don't worship the antichrist; don't take his mark; don't go into a ufo ship under any circumstances

[haiowl]

Happy new year from North America!

[deathangel988]

[XxShawnofthedeadxX]

Someone failed -> 0:52

[Theswiftkiller]

Weak

[DanielAvilaAGT]

At any moment I was waiting for GODZILLA to pop out and scare them

[monayhonay]

i dont think they know that that is bad for the environment.......

[DanielAvilaAGT]

@monayhonay The balloons are biodegradable...why do you think they were clear?

[fullchibimoon]

@monayhonay SOOOO! its only once a year :3

[TheKNguyenLife]

@monayhonay Again, they're biodegradable.

[Junior13274]

[mody55a]

Happy New Year from egypt :))

[Tonganpride1000]

The Balloons had wishes for the New Year inside. This is a pretty cool tradition.

[gilldoom]

I'm just glad there was no tsunami after the earthquake that happened on Sunday.

[White6th]

0:52 Lonely balloon stuck in the tree..

Forever alone :(

[MyCraft286LetsPlay]

Happy 2011!!

[zumholli]

@MyCraft286LetsPlay U serious?

[Tonganpride1000]

@MyCraft286LetsPlay You mean Happy 2012, right!! :)

[WithurShield]

I feel bad for the person whose balloon got caught in the tree.

[chris671]

Stupid! All those balloons will not hit the ocean as the original size. The higher the altitude the bigger they will expand eventually exploding in to tiny pieces or particles like your brain idiot! Do some research before you post "These balloons will end up in the ocean and kill so much shit..."

[cumuloninbostratus]

バカですね。

[portgas86]

I thought it was condom that is being released to the sky -___-

[cumuloninbostratus]

That's pretty cool

[Divachic456]

UOhhczxhczchczchchz

[chuy13ification]

[FlyingPotatoChickens]

Meanwhile in Tokyo.

[Nitthiyea103]

[starrk91]

All those balloons will be landing in Cali in about a week from now lol

[montogeman]

i think i counted about 400000000000000000000000000000­0000 Iphones

[jakejamesgx3]

@montogeman they make them out of their houses now by the barrel full.

[iPriestHolmes]

@montogeman actually the android outsells the iphone in japan by a large margin... i should know, i live there...here, er.. :P

[montogeman]

@iPriestHolmes well to be honest i saw about 4 iphones and couldnt recognize any others.

[XxChaos345xX]

So many people are recording with their phones and cameras. There's probably gonna be thousands of this video from a different view, Lol. =]

[mrshello210]

What No FireWorks ...

[creativeminds1235]

[mikecrooks99]

[kaa3164]

[F9aiL32]

[mrhanover]

I love Japan. America's got no culture lol

[robjacksontop]

@mrhanover I love Japan. Was on a two-month lecture tour and had a great time.

The Japanese are crazy about the American culture.... and one can find major opera and symphony ensembles visit there from the USA. I was able to find a ticket to the last Met Opera visit there.

[BvlgarigovIT]

They will start showing up on the shoreline, then some guy whos job is cleaning the beaches will be the one cleaning all those up. I am sure those balloons are biodegradable, you can't tell me noone one thought about the litter from this. It will be fine people.

[AnothaDayAnothdolla]

Those have to land somewhere....hmmm littering

[margaritamachiney]

Pollution?

[hbones2009]

Now the balloons go in the ocean and kill marine life! Wooooo New Years

[Dobydoves]

Hellion

[QuantumChance]

They are actually airlifting condoms to Africa

[vibol03]

its cool cuz japan is the first country to experience the new year!

[Deathadder969]

was there a iphone ? xDD

[Emotionsinthegrave]

Now all those ballons will end up in your ocean and bays! Killing a nice chunk of your already depleted sea life! Thought you japs we smart?

[AppIeTime]

@Emotionsinthegrave Seriously? Posting a stupid comment twice?

[RichHobOmg]

@Emotionsinthegrave how ironic. Japs are smart.

[Emotionsinthegrave]

Now those balloons are gonna end up in your all ready depleated ocean and bays... Killing even more sealife. I thought you japs were smart?

[ChipGlairz]

@Emotionsinthegrave maybe they out smart they didnt noticed

[MrTonyshit80]

[loboducth]

[TacticalGamesReviews]

@esmith4646

[esmith4646]

@TacticalGamesReviews ummm r u retared thats why we have farms u moron... who fucking cares if the polar bears go extinct doesnt effect me because there will always be cow and other animal farms... like if 10 fish species go extinct it wont fucking make a difference go smoke some ganja

[TacticalGamesReviews]

[fauzia773]

@ADMoxica i agree

[Beyontha]

@ADMoxica

I am agree with you!

[TehInternetsRSrsBsns]

@ADMoxica That's why they're biodegradable. Read the description.

[jpmac098]

@ADMoxica "All the balloons were biodegradable"

[TacticalGamesReviews]

@ADMoxica

are you the most retarded person in the world? this material is see tho and also bio friendly! that means by the time it hits the water it will be gone! Who would make this big of a event and won't think about the ocean? get your facts right before getting your fatass vagina in here commenting

[Blackfriday420]

Im very hungover :(

[x6King6x]

Days From Now,Other People Are Gonna Be Thinking When They See Those Balloons Flying Over Their Head And Think There Freaking U.F.O's.

[CodGeronimo]

@x6King6x Why are you capitalizing every first letter in every word? Makes you look stupid.

[CabooseSniper]

@CodGeronimo Why are you criticizing on Youtube? Makes you look really stupid.

[CodGeronimo]

@CabooseSniper That could possibly be the worst "comeback" on youtube.

[x6King6x]

@CodGeronimo i don't really know,but i'm used too so yea

[x6King6x]

Who the hell in the world would dislike this.

[MrAndynaruto61]

Shame that they started on the wrong foot, they had a 7.0 earthquake on the first day.

[tokyohands]

@MrAndynaruto61 it was quite a rattle i can tell ya!

[yasushi44341]

[FatalTerrorMTA]

Wow.. 500000 ballons... I think a aircraft will crash :)

[bialbox]

[IDRINKBLACKICE]

why must the japanese hate all sea creatures they just let like 10000 clear plastic balloons they sould all just yelled a fuck you sea turtles at midnight

[meotoko77]

@IDRINKBLACKICE Same can be said for the amount of fireworks displayed all over the world as being a result of Global Warming. lol.

[BlueFoundatlon]

Wow we are still waiting :)

Happy New Year to all mankind!

[imaninjastork]

this is so bbad for the environment

[becascastr]

All ballons had some paper... Do you think they write what they "wish" to 2012 ?

[KHKreations]

I found one of these balloons on my doorstep......I'm in the UK :)

[Nelogenazea]

@KHKreations sorry, I call bullshit on that. Your comment was posted roughly 6 hours after Japanese New Year. It almost takes as long for plane to to traverse that distance, I don't think a single balloon would make it over there that quickly.

[ASmoove05]

@KHKreations Thats a load of BS!

[nlght84]

@KHKreations that was a condom, ew :D

[GinaSono]

Happy New Year for all the Japanese, especially for my Seiichiro! :-)
