- In this video I talk about 3 reasons why I think japanese police officers stopped often while riding or walking around town.

Yes, they really look at the way they dress. My friend was stopped for wearing a cool ripped Carhartt, but the police thought he had been in an accident. 😂😂😂😂
Haha exactly!
I learned this in Korea. When you’re in a monoculture country you will be stopped/checked if you don’t fit in. I’ve seen a lot of people who fly in ‘lazy’ clothes and get stopped at immigration. ProTip: clean up (shave, fresh clothes, etc) on the first bathroom after landing before going through immigration. It’ll save you from a ‘random’ inspection. I got stopped at immigration before so they can search for vapes/cigs even though I don’t smoke, only cause I looked the part.
Exactly! I guess it’s the same in every country to come extent and you can get away with it a bit more in western countries but definitely more stopped on monoculture for sure!
Foreigners understand bro... especially darker skinned brothers 😂
It was informative thanks, also please turn down music
Thanks!
So your first video I watched I thought I was listing to an Anglo, then saw this video and was funny to me. My wife is Japanese and we constantly talk about accents and native English ability. 😂 cheers.
Turn the music down just a bit. Nice to have it as a background but it's really distracting at this volume and also feels like it's making you talk louder. I like the background moving etc could do green screen and play around with it. Thanks for the stories
Noted thanks!
this song in the background is good as fuck
Cheers👍
So after you change your shirt, you didn't get stopped by police?
Exactly! Except one time for having a noisy bike haha
Luckily i never got stopped by the Japanese police since i wear a military vest with a dragon tiger yankie jacket with hoode and a stick that i walk a lot for long walks with backpack. I'm from Iraq but can speak Japanese very well so i don't get problems with the police.
True that is lucky!
It's great that they inspect suspicious people.
Yes definitely! But sometimes a double edged sword because they tend to profile too hard sometimes (ie if you stand out in a unique way because of your style etc)
@@yoodoosworld I prepared a few solutions as a presentation:
1. Get famous. People go nuts and everyone will want to dress like you. You won't be hassled.
2. Start negotiating with an official body to have your attire declared a national treasure.
3. Stay at areas where crazy clothing is admired.
4. Attach large "Not Abunai. A wacky stairu" stickers on each piece of offending clothing so people understand and relax, lessing the disturbance effect. This probably will start a trend and you might get famous. It is necessary to design a good autograph.
@@ilmarinen79 haha that sounds like a good plan to me 👍👍👍
so in Japan they literally have the fashion police
Haha you can say that 😂
This is a good video. Are you from Japanese ancestry?
Thanks! Culturally Japanese and I was born in Japan, Kyoto!
@@yoodoosworld So what's your ethnicity? If you don't mind telling. If I had to guess, I'd say Korean.
@@Serjo777 im Zainichi! which is korean born in japan! so culturally full japanese and no korean (i speak japanese but dont speak korean etc)
The way you dressed being the reason for that isn't exactly surprising now, is it? ^^
You’re correct 😭👌
I got stopped for being a different kind of ripped. I'm Asian and I was heading to my hotel gym and they sent a cop right after me. I'm just wearing standard gym clothes (no tank, just tee) but I guess they were suspicious of me being way too ripped and my clothes being more form fitting relative to the typical dude you see on a Japanese street lol
Hahah yea maybe u had some guns on ur arms they were suspicious about too
JP P.Officer : hey sir, you are arrested.
Jp citizen : Ah yes, im guilty of having a very unfortunate life where i can't get clothes. Off to the holding cells i guess,
😂😭
I’m too much of a slob and bipolar for that society. I so LOVE JAPANESE CULTURE! I’m just not a good fit. ^^
Haha me too 😂
