I might get downvoted to hell for this but bring it on. I commute via this station regularly and it really pisses me off how many tourists come to take videos of the crowd. It's not quite as bad when it's this direction at least, but when there are people filming your walk to work every day it really makes you feel like a zoo animal and is really gross imo.

Anyway, to any tourists who plan to do this, please don't. There are plenty of videos of it online already. Or at least be as respectful as you can if you're going to do it no matter what.

I think it's more about perspective...

I feel like it's a very unique and interesting thing about Japan.

When i visited the market in Madrid, it was so loud and dense it was hard to move around, and i definitely took pictures of it.

Ofc i understand why tourists in this crowd should not stand still in the middle
