They should ride on our Amtrak. It is empty.

That is utter madness! I have ridden many a crowded subway - but that...wow, I would walk (or bike!)

My husband is almost sure this is in China, not Japan. Regardless - I could never ride that!

I just had to give a chuckle in thinking of the ending destination. The doors open and then what? Do they fall out or is it like a ketchup bottle where you have to introduce the air pocket to empty the contents? :)

I hope they don't make multiple stops! Can you imagine if you had to get off at stop #1 and you were somewhere in that mess? That looks so dangerous.

I cannot say for certain it is Japan, but my wife who is Japanese says for certain this is how they 'load' the subways/trains in Tokyo.

How do people not suffocate or wet their pants between stops?

"Hey buddy get your elbow out of my ear!"

"It's not my elbow!!"

"It's not my ear!!!"
