Safety First

The other day, I was waiting for a friend outside of Shinjuku Station. I noticed that a small crowd had gathered around a strange trailer-like contraption. And by "gathered", I mean "almost entirely ignored".



Still, it is often worth braving public disinterest in the search for randomness.

Fortunately for me, dear reader, and for you, that little contraption happened to be an Air Bag Simulator.



Fortunately, the speed is set to around seven kilometres per hour. Thus, this simulator is only intended to show you what it is like to crash an airbag equipped ride-on lawnmower.





Of course, this is Japan, so a few key things are important.

1) Be sure not to equip the passenger side with an Airbag.



2) Be sure to allow children to come along. Lawsuits? What lawsuits?
