  8. Drill, in civilian dress. Good discipline, but not amazing - people just aren't used to seeing people who aren't wearing military uniforms do this.

  9. It is marching, and it is not Chinese. this is Japanese. Much like a drill squad.
    And Yes, Discipline is important in Japan, as it is nearly non-existent in Western nations.

  11. I was on a D&C team in the Army and I have to say these guys are really good. The patterns are easy to learn but you can tell how good they are by how little they shuffle their feet when they measure their distance when forming back up.

    They run 10-20ft into position and without looking down or shuffling they're already within an inch of where they need to be. Putting their arms up to measure is just a formality. Not bad at all.

  13. To the moron who says this was in China, the announcer in the video is speaking Japanese.
    Please enlighten me as to when they started speaking Japanese in China.

  14. 1931 or even before, depending on where in China.

  15. Errr but it would be more likely that a person speaking Japanese would live in JAPAN rather than China, though.
    I'm not saying that it's impossible that a person who lives in China would speak Japanese, just that it's definitely more of a rarity.

  17. Marching band geeks of America support you, Japanese walking teams. But do you think you could add a little music to it? Or is the point that it needs to be done without an audible beat for reference?

  18. Now I finally get why you had to do the synchronized walking and gun posing thing in Junon in Final Fantasy VII XD Japan, you're awesome.

  19. Just to point this out, Tosh.0 showed this video and made a Chinese joke or two about it. That might be what is causing some confusion.

  20. Wow, what's amazing about it is they're still in Middle school and high school. Great coordination.

  24. I am astounded by several things, one being how many people came to see that event, two being how many people decided they wanted to train as synchronized walkers, and three how it was fascinating enough to watch the whole thing through!

  27. The crowds love this because it looks just like the day in Japan where everyone, and I mean everyone, starts work. Same suits, ties, haircuts, on the SAME day. Individuality expressions not appreciated. All working men and women in lockstep.

  32. So what, they are marching. It's called marching; it isn't a purely Japanese phenomenon.
