Learning To Laugh

Yes, you read it right…. BALL SLAPPER.

So, you think the Japanese are smarter than we are? When was the last time you saw grown men do this in America? OK, not the crazy extreme teen crowd, they do this to warm up - or wake up.

I hope these guys are making good money for this. Perhaps this was a Japanese experiment for teaching schoolchildren to learn faster.

Take a good look at the ’slapper’ - it’s a multi layered leather NUTCRACKER.

No thanks, not for me. I’ll watch.

I can’t decide whether this is a trick, real, or some sort of computer graphics. If it’s real, then this guy has spent far too long with his goldfish. And also if it is real, then it makes it difficult to explain why it’s so hard to get your kids to listen to you!

I wonder if he can do that with… well… I can;t think of anything weirder than trained goldfish. Oh, I’ve got it! ….Trained houseflys!! I bet he can;t do that!

There is so much to be said about this video, I don’t have all the time in the day to say it all here…

Please post your comments about this video below, but try to keep it nice. I’ll get the ball rolling:

• How do they know if any little Yoshios are drowning?
• What is the best seat on this ride?
• How many Japanese does it take to fill a pool?
• Tsunami practice.
• “Does anyone know where the bathroom is?”
• This looks like an electron wave reaction.
• 1 in 4 of these people is a Lifeguard. They must be. Please.

OK, that should get you started….
