A Tokyo-based American YouTuber TkyoMe posted a video to his channel featuring himself affixing a GoPro to the side of a salaryman’s forehead on a Yamanote Line train this week.
The video, originally titled “Look at my awesome new video featuring me and a Tokyo train, and then me again”, was taken down due to privacy concerns.
“What’s all the fuss about? He didn’t complain when I stuck it to his head,” YouTuber TkyoMe said in a new video posted online.
The GoPro filmed at least two full round trips of the Yamanote Line from the top of the salaryman’s head while TkyoMe grabbed a few beers at the Hub.
TkyoMe concluded the short video by filming himself brushing his teeth and getting ready for bed.
JR released a press statement today revealing the 38-year-old commuter had actually died from overwork and had been travelling around the Yamanote Line since September.

Fake news. The japanese train system only runs until midnight and start again at 5 am and they clean the cars daily. There is no way in hell that someone will be unbothered on a train for months or even 1 night
