Warming Glow
Warming Glow is a blog dedicated to the best and worst of television programming. Mostly the worst.


10.14.09 HA HA, GOOD ONE, JAPAN

If you think Fox or TLC are exploitative and cruel to the people they feature on some of their programs, keep this in mind: Fox wouldn’t last a month in Japan. In this clip from Japanese TV, a man is led to believe that a sniper is killing the people in the room with him. HA HA HA HA! Hoooo, that’s rich! Did you see the way he was paralyzed with the fear of imminent death? Oh, man, Japan. You are such a kidder.

The only thing that would have made this video better is if the people in the little picture-in-picture window were all in blackface.

It’s funny because he thinks he’s going to die!

Did anybody notice the sasquatch in the left corner at 1:42. They could have scared him as bad if it ran into the room.

@Gymshortz: I saw that too, and it scared me more than the
German Gushers ad did. What the fuck is that, anyway?

To burst a bubble here, the guy that freaked out, he’s a regular on TV because of his crazy stretchy face, he’s been on plenty of comedy shows and it’s so flipping unlikely that a person has any gun in Japan let alone a sniper rifle he was probably in disbelief, but still shocked from the noise only. A lot of Japan gag comedy has a lot of fake to it. The physical gags are good in of themselves, but I wouldn’t call this cruelty by any means. The hidden cameras behind those box mirrors would have been obvious to anyone who’s been on TV, to expect something.

the guy on the sofa with the interviewer, his acting with the squib that hits his back is awesome. mad skills.

I just want to point out that there is a show in America that takes this kind of thing way farther, Scare Tactics takes this idea to the extreme. and by the way is also just as funny.

Oh Japan. You ruffians, you.

Scare tactics is fake. And I don’t think they’ve done anything more extreme than making people think they’re about to die.

I just thought of the best jingle for when someone gets fired at work. It goes de-de-de-de-de-de-de-dede.

Yes. Mike. Gooks may be silly, but gooks are smarter than you.

Should have dropped an A-bomb on the dude to see his reaction. That would have been ‘real’ live T.V. .
