#5 Constantine In: Nakizumo Crying Sumo Festival, Asakusa Senso-ji

[FlamboyantFlamingo97]

JOSEPH JESUS MARY MOTHERFUCK!!!! Way to fucking traumatize your children..

[Kailuh727]

The babies think this is worse than the atom bomb lol

[taureleafsilver]

Not so much shaking as bouncing! Looks like a fun, if potential loud festival. In other news This is the same day as my dad's birthday.

[lindseeeyyyyy]

"Let's go shake some babies?" Yeah, really fucking witty huh? This is just cruel.

[Arcer26]

This is why japanese people aren't fat. They cultivate their children to have terrifying subconscious associations with obesity.

[Valmanther]

@Arcer26 LOLOL

[nomyek200]

THIS IS WHY WAPANESE EXIST! THEY KNOW WHAT'S FUCKING RIGHT! Seriously, this is just amazing.

[zombiesonar]

lol dontshakeDOTorg

[MohaaVeteran]

lmfao why the fuck would you do that?

[APOKALYPSE34]

thats just mean! so you have to feel bad for the sumo guys cuz their going to smell a demon that they aren't ready to face .

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@APOKALYPSE34 HAHA, very clever Apokalypse!!

[ceigareit]

I think I'd rather have my baby suffer through a couple "demons" than be disabled or dead from Shaken Baby Syndrome.

[FlyingTatersofDoom]

So this has got to be similar to being dropped when you were born. . . . . twice.

[TzumB]

@3:26 amazing shot!

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@TzumB Yeah, that kid was definitely NOT happy! =P

[TzumB]

@ConstantineInTokyo Who wants to see happy babies anyway! :P

No but really, when you think of the demon expulsion idea behind this ceremony, this kid looks totally convincing! ;)

[Killer2Production]

lmao feel sorry for those kids...

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@Killer2Production Nah, they were pretty happy. Some of the kids laughed or fell asleep while the sumo's tried to make them laugh!

[UnFixCA]

@Killer2Production stfu

[StarlightSweetie]

Heh......so, what happens when the kid ends up with SBS??

[blahben342]

wat the fak!!!

[matadordn]

Thus the reason for their eating disorder is revealed...

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@matadordn Hahaha, traumatic childhood memories of being bounced around by giant men in loincloths can lead to eating disorders? ...I think you're onto something!

[matadordn]

@ConstantineInTokyo HAHA just a hunch there

[fnorgen]

Japan: Producer of 90% of the world's weird sh*t since 1955.

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@fnorgen Since 1955? I don't know...they might have had a monopoly on weirdness well before the Pacific War. =P

[fruitfest]

is the most stupid i've ever seen, making cry babies is not fun at all is being cruel! stupid gordos and parents to make this to their own children.

[JJPleaseBeMine]

@fruitfest Did you know that the Japanese believe a good cry is healthy for babies? ;)

[aNonRealisticGuy]

@fruitfest Maybe in your part of the world, but in Japan it's a part of the culture and it'll give them good health. Don't say it's stupid, there's plenty of stupid in the bible and people still believe in that one.

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@fruitfest The idea behind the festival is that crying will drive away demons and help the child live a long and healthy life. So, in this case crying is a good thing.

[OnlySinner]

@ConstantineInTokyo All they're doing is terrorizing babies and giving them Shaken Baby Syndrome. What a stupid festival.

[BittersweetVictory]

How bizarre! Well I hope that for the babies sake all that shakin' warded off all the evil spirits, haha

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@BittersweetVictory Me too!

[TheDutchGaijin]

Oh god. lol.

Why. Why oh why, why.... WHY.

But 7thwave42 is right, impressive moobs.

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@TheDutchGaijin There were a lot of babies, so it's probably a good thing you didn't come.

[7thwave42]

This is just brilliantly bizarre. Those Sumo in training already have very impressive moobs.

[ConstantineInTokyo]

@7thwave42 I really wanted to see one of the babies latch onto one of the sumo's moobs and try to start nursing. That would have made my YEAR!
