Japanese Bullet Train Shinkansen Tokyo to Hiroshima Mount Fuji - Slade Walters' Memoirs of a Gaijin

I already uploaded this video, but the quality was bad. This is my second attempt with different settings. This video is just a short look at my ride on a Japanese Shinkansen (Bullet Train) ride from Tokyo to Hiroshima. It really is a modern marvel of engineering and efficiency.

Awesome. I've got a high school club set up, and we are raising money to tour around Japan for a month. I am very excited!

how was the luggage capacity? I will be in Japan in a month and sort of need to know what to expect and how much luggage we can support when we go from Tokyo to Osaka area.

Between Tokyo and Shin-Osaka this train goes up to 270km/h, between Shin-Osaka and a few kms before passing Himeji station it goes up to 275km/h, then @ Himeji station it passes @ 300km/h

@plutoend99 Haha! Well! It's been a little over 2 years since I tried collecting my money and putting forward the effort of a summer trip. I soon realized how expensive it was (Around $2,000 for 2 weeks, per person). Right now I'm finishing up my last bit of high school and soon I'll be heading for a minor in japanese study. A lot of universities offer study abroad programs at little expense to you besides your personal necessities. I would recommend that, if you are a student.

Nice video. I made the same trip in October, but from Yokohama to Hiroshima. What a great experience. I will never forget it.
