Been there done that. It's something you need to experience once in your life to readjust your concept of personal space. You can imagine how chicks get molested in that situation too. It's pretty common actually. It's a weird thing to think that no more people can possibly get on the train, and then the door opens. There is silence as no one gets out, then all the sudden these businessmen in suits start slamming into people with their briefcases. It's like a mosh pit on wheels.

It's like that on the Tramway at Cannon Mt. They pack 'em in, but instead of brief cases its snowboards, skis and poles. The worse part is that when it's cold you can see everyone's breath so you can actually see that your breathing someone else's air.

x2!

There's been a couple times that I was gonna get trampled...like at Metallica back in 94, or Mardi Gras in 96 when a firetruck tried to drive down Bourbon St. There is no way in hell I'd get on that train.

This is a big part of the reason why people work late in Tokyo and or spend time going for drinks with co-workers.

Is this for real? If you didn't tell me I would think it's a prank video. Wow. Definitely not the way I would travel after eating BBQ beans and a tall glass of milk.

It's for real. It's not so bad when you're crammed in there with a bunch of sexy asian chicks though.

To tell you the truth I found it pretty difficult to concentrate a few times as the train rocked and swayed. Had to think about dead puppies, and stare down an obaachan (grandma) in order to keep my composure.

lolz you should have let your flag fly, and if anyone says anything just be like "its not mine" it looked like that had a bajillion people crammed into a hot dog cart

with the whole groping thing, if I was ever in that position to do something like that my luck would be grabbing and getting a handful of dude
