All look like cats hiding under desk.

Being a westerner, living in Japan... we often talk about "typical Japanese". The entry-leve lifeforms in this video, are the classic case of the "typical gaijin"... :(

It's nice to see that you kids did well. You reminded me of that weird feeling of being afloat.

Some of the other videos reminded me of the need to end my feeling of worthlessness. The survivors will remember their feelings of inadequecy as what comes as the terror subsides. A uphoria of adrenalin that instead provides only guilt. If you look for people, who are trying to get that emotion out of their spirt, you could help them as you can find the same need as a panic in yourselves.

I agree with cyberYUI,especially considering they are young,to them its an adventure,adrenaline is running,nerves on overdrive,at that point people will say just about anything to cover up what they are really feeling.As to the bereaved watching this,somehow I don't think the majority of them would be watching any of this just because of the terrible memories and lost ones,I know its not something I would be doing,also I think they would be a lot more understanding considering their youth.

[cyberYUI]

watch?v=gluWVySBVOU

Watch this until the end.

[lilsokzmuzic]

you go to International Secondary School? haha..

[Torndooooo]

Okay, listen. Now I know you think this is repulsive and disrespectful but how were these kids suppose to automatically know that there was a tsunami that killed 13,000 plus people. They are trying to make light in a situation that was scary, something most of us would do if we were in this position. So before you put the "iron fist" down think first, we were not there and they were. Stop Hating. Start loving. Many more big earthquakes are coming.

[cyberYUI]

@Torndooooo

Okay, I've got your point. I'm not blaming them at all for enjoying a harmless high because we all have freedom of speech and many other rights. Even I was kinda whooping it up when rooms were shaking like an attraction.

But I don't think that means you don't have to care about the bereaved, who could have been sad somehow to happen to see this video with some thoughtless comments recorded.

Saying what you want

and disclosing it for everyone

are different.

[cyberYUI]

As a citizen of Japan who's got used to earthquakes through this 24-year life,

I do understand they often make you sure some extraordinary consequences will happen in a way that is thrilling annd exciting.

But just so you know, since the moment you uploaded this video, you've created the possibility that the bereaved might happen to watch it somehow.

I'd be glad if you thought of them just for a second, instead of uploading the video with a guy's voice saying "It's so fun!"

Sincerely.

[kevinqagoncillo]

@cyberYUI Laughter is not mainly for fun, it's also a defense mechanism. I can only imagine how horrible the consequences are, but I study human psychology. All this laughter and them saying, "This is so fun" is simple defense mechanisms.

Personally I think it helps. If you can't laugh some things off you might as well be a rock. Plus his ending note of saying, "Hope this never happens again" should be enough notice that he probably wasn't feeling it was the greatest experience of his life.

[supotanga]

Typical idiots, this is the fruit of the decadence of modern American society & it's vulgarity.

[20alphabet]

"RAW FOOTAGE" as opposed to... uh, cooked?

[nick2var]

Go home and play with your dicks...it will be much more educational!!!Respect and sympathy to Japanese people

[aendom]

idiots

[SSASMSKSR]

And what do you expect from some Americans: Mocking. Down with USA

[pochee2877]

so sad these people lost there homes no food shelter oh my god i,m donating money for them

[dragonheart86]

i hope the earthquake kill this loser!!

[pekker210]

I hope u guys die a slow death...soon

[mbs198]

you should hide around the desk!!!not under the desk!!!!!

[MySexythang123]

You guys are sick people to think this was funny.

[hidetton1]

It is translation site use.

Scary ?It worries whether a lot of foreign countries have scary time in Japan.

Even the Japanese scared this scale. Having hidden oneself under the desk at once is wonderful. However, when the severe earthquake will occur in the future

･It doesn't approach the window (glass). ･The door is opened (secure of the escape route). ･It helps with the local resident. This is important. Please it is prayed that this experience become not fear but a funny story for you.

[MidwestViewer]

This is disgusting. People died today.

[keke911bad]

[DJKGaming]

Campers ! lol

[Lisiml78]

there are ignorant people

[DoctorComics]

i see japanese guys acting black.. lol.. what a treat.

[greghoward2007]

Nothing funny about what happened here - people died as a result of the quake and it's aftermath tsunami - you should show more respect .

[postiez]

@greghoward2007 Funny is not synonymous with laughing. "Laughing is a reaction to certain stimuli, fundamentally stress, which serves as an emotional balancing mechanism."

[yamato8125]
