[DSREK7]

Maybe we should make their parents and the organizers cry. Like dropping another bomb on these ignorant parents.

[Rellepog]

Poor thing this is child harrasment!

[goodgoodgoodful]

another "Only in Japan."

[41Joshua96]

We call that, "Child Abuse".

[lauriegg08]

@41Joshua96 It's up to them what kind of servings the wanna give to their whoever/whatever they worship.

[islandheart1]

just stop commenting on this video if you think its cruel.. they arent phisically harming these kids and its a tradition for good luck so just stop complaining! stop wasting your lives watching "cruel" videos and commenting on how cruel it is...

[fishgul69]

@islandheart1 lol, for reals. it's like some people do that deliberately. oh wait, they're called TROLLS, lmao.

[DSREK7]

@islandheart1 "They arent phisically harming these kids" Guess you never heard of shaken baby syndrome. To you mentally harming these kids is okay too, right?  You idiot.

[singalinger]

hahaha! this is so cute. yeah, it's cruel in some people's eyes but it's their tradition, i don't think anyone has the right to judge what they do.

[LiLyUschi]

die armen kleinen =(

[Lynnamena]

Die armen kids he -.-' die großen stehn alle außen rum und lachen, die sollt man mal derbst ärgern und erschrecken, mal schaun wie die das finden O.ô

[fishgul69]

the tradition is to bring good luck. they believe that the kid's crying are like prayer to the gods.

[lauriegg08]

@fishgul69 do ALL japanese babies have to participate in this event?

[fishgul69]

@lauriegg08 doesn't seem so but don't take my word on it, I'm just an outside observer.

[quezcatol]

@fishgul69 what kind of excuse is that? anyway, a baby crying once isnt a big deal though.

[fishgul69]

@quezcatol what excuse?

[quezcatol]

@fishgul69 saying that they protect themselves vs evil spirit. no way do they actually believe that.

its like the africans who kills albinoa children for their "godly bones" are we gonna say, those bones gives good crops so it makes sense to kill children?

[fishgul69]

@quezcatol you don't read carefully, do you? and you take things too far. I said nothing about evil spirits or protection. I said it was a good luck thing. they also believe that it brings good health to the crying babies. the festival is called Nakizumo. look it up.

[FakeApology]

I don't think it's that cruel. Unless they were pinching them to make them cry and I didn't see, of course.

[rockee77]

what is so funny about screaming at babys and make them cry? this is just plain cruel.

[GoodOlDavid]

cruel but great

the japanese are crazy

[RijenRijen]

[ewfq2]
