An elementary school in Shinjuku ward hosted a Guinness World Record-breaking 118-legged walk today. Here's a picture of 117 people tied together by the ankles, about to start the "race." They comprised of students, teachers, and parents celebrating the centennial of Ushigome-Nakano Elementary School. The previous record was set by a bunch of consultants in the UK last September, and that was with 77 people.
Pretty awesome teamwork, I'd say.

I am also the founder of The Tofu Project, a boutique program that helps Japanese entrepreneurs and creators think deeper, tell better stories, and go out into the world in a much bigger way. We work with companies like Mixi, Japan Airlines, and Salesforce.com.
Sometimes I try to explain Japanese culture on CNN, BBC, CBC, WSJ, ABC (so many acronyms!) or in person at places like the Foreign Correspondents' Club of Japan, ETech, and Ignite!
