This show also did other challenges, forcing people to hike long distances, build a raft to get to land, starving people if their baseball team doesn't win, etc... Its sick as hell
Apparently one of the other participants was assaulted at a gay bar in a foreign country while participating in some campaign for the show and none of the producers stepped in to help him
He was a senior in college and this broadcast forced him to repeat a year, but his professor at the time happened to see it on TV and applied for his leave of absence. Thanks to him, he was able to go back to college and successfully graduate
All of what charlie said was fact (idk, i think). But he only mention the bad side of it which is kinda unfair bc its not the bigger picture of this case. So in 90s a lot of japanese comedian had to participate in these types of game show such as Silent Library(more extreme than the us version), this show, etc in order to be famous. Which they did, they get their fame from that and currently became the senior comedian and get to be a commentarors of current show, if you ever see one they are the people in those little box on the corner of every game show.
@@Filthyllamas please tell me the bigger picture of what this man went through. If you were in his place and people were angry for you, would you say the same thing? But please enlighten me about the bigger picture that clearly we cannot see about a man’s suffering.
@@Filthyllamas so long story short, just endure torture and let a corrupt capitalist company do whatever the fuck they want to you so you can get slightly ahead of where you currently are in this world? Is that the bigger picture?
I don't think eating raw meat is nessesarily bad for your health. It could be but only if it the meat is contaminated, which most meat probably isn't. In a situation like this you're better off eating it. As you see it didn't kill him. I doubt it did him any harm at all. You should still just cook it though, assuming you can. kill all the bacteria and make it more nutritious.
What terrified me was the music, and the commentary in the background. It was a similar tone of voice and similar music to one of my fave japanese shows ever, Old Enough- which is literally about toddlers going on cute little errands. They weren't treating this like a tragedy- they saw it as COMIC.
The music and the announcer are extremely unsettling. You'd imagine it was meant to make the viewers feel uncomfortable, having such a contrast between the cheery voices and the miserable scene on the screen, but I think it was actually meant to be amusing and humorous. They really didn't see anything wrong with mocking the suffering of the "contestant"
I think the feigned moral indignation in the comment section is more fucked up. You guys are literally crying about someone who voluntarily chose to participate in a Japanese game show that he could leave at any moment. Kids these days love to find things to cry over.
That last shot of him sitting on the stage, shocked, naked and terrified surrounded by a giddy audience and being showered with confetti is so incredibly fucked up I can’t imagine how sadistic these producers were.
@@won879 He was litteraly stripped before they asked. If you know know anything about social dynamics and manipulaiton youd know nasubi practically didnt have a choice here
The fact that Nasubi probably didn't even get a significant percentage of the show's earnings while he was the one being tortured for money is bloodboiling.
@@MrMongoose221 Omg I thought I was the only one who started doing mean shit to their Sims (I was like "whaaaaat they fall asleep on the floor from sleep deprivation?!/kept giving my sims husbands and causing fires etc for her husband's to die and was like "woah she's grieving & losing her mind") & I ended up feeling so guilty and terrible about it I started apologizing out loud to my Sims & never did it again 😂😂
I was feeling sorry for him at first but when he got the chance to leave he stayed. Man its his choice to be tortured! why should i care about him when he doesnt care for himself
and funny how he suddenly breezed thru the challenge once he wasn't in japan anymore, maybe cus producers couldn't rig it overseas (apart from the obviously smaller goal)
Was about to say. They definitely controlled what he wins. Or else he would've gotten clothes at some point, or he would've died from starvation in the first month as he did not get food to start with.
if anybody surprised that japanese people would do that, they definitely never heard of hisashi ouchi the nuclear reactor incident victim. the Japanese government kept him alive for 83 days while his body is literally melting from radiation for a resesarch
I don't think I've EVER been so speechless in my fucking life. The fact this could happen to a Real person, let alone for the Entertainment Of Others, is genuinely mind-boggling. And, with so few, if ANY, consequences too?? Holy shit.
as a child in the special ed program of a not-so-great elementary school, i was periodically locked in padded rooms for sometimes up to 2-3 hours. that fucked me up for life. even having that experience (which is admittedly not really similar), i cannot IMAGINE what being locked away from society for over a year would do to someone, much less being mocked on TV and starved in addition to that. holy shit
@@PrettyVulgar92 it was a public school. from what i remember of my state’s laws (it’s been a while since i looked at these laws & a while since elementary), they can indeed legally do that as long as they notify the principal after 30 minutes & the principal gives the go ahead 🙃 the rooms technically don’t ‘lock’ tho, but they do have someone on the other side holding the door at all times so… essentially they do lock, just not with a locking mechanism that comes with the door.
the upbeat effects when he is literally suffering is so sadistic and sinister. this is so black mirror like, its actually insane to me that there wasnt intervention at any point.
Glad to hear that a documentary is coming out soon about this…. More people need to hear this story and those responsible need to be thrown in the spotlight for the sick thing they have done to this man
It's so difficult to imagine this was real and happened in the mid90s. If this were a Black Mirror episode, it would be on everyone's "top 10 most disturbing" list.
It's totally not difficult to imagine this I'm sure there are many other cases of remotely viewing people suffering for entertainment since the television frequency was invented and today we look at animals on TV almost the same way people watch this
Oh I can totally imagine that in any country with a employment problems. Where no company doesen't fucking need you without experience even with a good digress in university. And don't even get me started on actors/comedians. We probably woudn't have waiters, cashiers or food delivery ppl if no one wanted to try theirselfs as an actors... and just keep waited for this successful audition
I mean it is extremely similar to that one episode “white bear” or “fifteen million merits” and both those are incredibly fucked up. I wonder if the writers took inspiration from this
this ending with the walls collapsing and him being on a stage in front of hundreds of people is so dystopian and makes this whole event seem like a black mirror episode
only thing I could think of from the beginning. The way it escalated at the end is insane. I'm still questioning if this was faked somehow because it is so absurd
Yes holy shit I can hardly believe this actually happened. How Nasubi actually committed to doing it and never just said fuck this. I’m also shocked that the people watching just let this happen and no one tried to stop it somehow. And the fact that this went on for 15 months is insane. There’s just so many things about this that I simply can’t fathom.
Dude this shit is normal in Japan. There’s so many sociopaths there, and there’s lots of entertainment and p0rn that’s not officially released that you can find in stores that is literally snuff. There’s something about pain and death that gives the Japanese a real kick

No Everest is not easy because he experienced this which is why he didn’t summit it. People die on Everest regularly. Not sure why anyone would pay thousands of dollars to not actually climb it entirely.
I think the most heartbreaking thing about this. Is he probably genuinely thought that if he made it through this ordeal, he would become renowned not only for his tenacity, but for his comedy. He endured this all thinking it would be worth it, but it wasnt...

When he won the 10kg bag of rice.... the way he held onto it and started crying absolutely broke me. The people who set this up deserve nothing but the absolute worst lives you could possibly imagine, I really pray they get what they deserve
Unfortunately, the producers lived extravagant lives due to all the money Natsubi had made for them. And they didn't even give him a dime of the money either I bet. This made me lose all faith in humans. I would honestly beat the producers with my own hands and break every bone in their bodies to get payback for Natsubi and I've never met the guy. I can just tell he's a good dude at heart. Also I wanna play Playstation with him 😊

@@jacobpeters5458 Hahahaha! Wtf? Maybe if you weren’t many cards short of a full deck, and didn’t watch tv like a drone, you would have been just fine. Ofc, I’d understand if it was because employers forced masking.
19:46 the cut from him being ecstatic to win more rice to sobbing uncontrollably while holding the bag is... Probably one of the saddest things I've seen.
The fact he survived this is amazing. He's probably one of the strongest people I've seen on the internet for going through this and not going full psychopath
My mind would have snapped about 1 month in I think. But my mental health would deterioate rapidly only about 1 week in. But my mental health already is fucked to begin with and with underlying history of mental health struggles so... There's no way I could even participate in such a "challenge" to begin with. Even the premise sounds awfull, and then it was actually way worse in reality... Fuck! This challenge feels like "kidnap victim simulator" like wtf even is this demented shit. I hear about people being held as sex slave captives for 10-20 years, I would have comitted suicide by any means necessary way before then. Maybe 1-2 months max. Either that or my mind would be so broken that I go full feral and attack my captor by biting his dick off or something and then from that try to kill him while he's too stunned from shock to defend himself. The fact that they first told him to strip the second he got to the apartment would have instantly made me fear for my life, thinking I accidentaly got myself into a sex slave situation. I can't believe he didn't protest to that, or that he remained calm after that.
@@rebeccacummings6697 Psychopaths don't exist. It's a made up mental illness that no human has ever been legitimately diagnosed with. That's why the term ASPD has replaced it in the DSM-V
a couple of months ago i watched this story on some other channel, and the creator said, that tomoaki hamatsu actually didn't agree to be a part of that 'experiment' in korea. in fact it had something to do with the contract, and it that was also the reason why he couldn't leave before. i can be pretty much wrong, but that's what i heard, so im assuming it makes sense
When he took off his blindfold in Korea and he found himself in that small room and the producer told him to strip, it gave me chills, like it was the end of one of those psychological horror movies.
my heart absolutely sank. ive watched the atrocity guide vid a long time ago but dont remember much, the whole thing is so f'd up and sad. hopefully- and it looks like it?- nasubi is in a way better place and doing good after that insane shit he had to endure.
@@dswp4882 he didn't continue out of a contractual obligation. He did it out of societal pressure, corporate pressure, and legal pressure. You can't exactly get up an leave if you're wearing nothing but a pair of used panties you "got from sweepstakes". Not to mention devotion, determination, and perseverance are all respected characteristics in Japanese culture so quitting would have him looked down upon by society. Then there's the fact he was lied to the entire time by the producers, and while it may be easy to see those lies now they may have seemed much more enticing to him at the time, and those producers would've kept trying everything to keep him on as long as possible as shown when they kept raising the stakes at the end without telling him just to stretch their time airing this shit. Also they probably didn't have any sort of on site injury waiver or anything like that especially when they knew the very nature is this challenge could kill him, and unlike in America they likely weren't required at the time, and still probably aren't with the crazy shit they making into shows sometimes.
Even though this is extremely messed up morally, this goes to show you how our mind is so powerful. Seeing him think of alternatives for situations he’s HEAVILY HANDICAPPED in and actually getting good results is crazy.
That ending where they drop the walls to reveal he's on a stage is just horrifying. Like that is how an actual horror movie would end, and they just treat it like it's a friendly happy occasion. Actually felt sick watching that.
The most extraordinary thing about Nasubi's ordeal is that the door to his room was unlocked the whole time. He explained in subsequent interviews that he didn't leave because obligation and endurance are important values in Japanese culture, and because he didn't have any clothes to wear in the outside world.
Yeah, this whole story is bs...so, he didn't have a blanket when he slept? Also, could've fabricated something out of his rice bag. He was in on it from the beginning...*mic drop*
@@nicestrat okay so what can he do with the rice bag. cut a hole how? wear how? stick together how? he didnt have TOOTHPASTE for 3 months, toilet paper for 10. you reckon he's getting a fucken sewing needle and thread to make some rice bag undies?? lmaooo

@@carpo719 But it was live broadcasted? You believe they would they fake this for that long in the nude with barely anything to survive on? He was obviously in the apartment and people found him. He is seen winning the ticket. Would be pretty hard to fake. 355+ days in isolation don't y you think? He is seen physically deteriorating, his hair, his nail growth, his comments about anxiety. He's again in the nude. 24/7 live broadcast, moved to 3 different locations. How could this have "most likely" been faked? This was a live broadcast//stream so either way wouldn't they have always constantly been suffering? Why do you doubt this?
@@jayemayyalldamnday I honestly don’t know. I’ve never participated in sweepstakes in Japan. But I do know that in the 90s even in the US they were way more common and you could win (for example) small charity sweepstakes more reliably. There’s always a chance that he got unlucky in Japan, but the Korea bait and switch just makes me skeptical. It even makes me question whether things like the wrong address ramen delivery was an accident.
His real name is Tomoaki Hamatsu and he actually hasn't done that bad for himself. He's a local influencer in his area, eventually created his own acting stage group 'Eggplant Way' that travelled across Japan and he still gets on TV shows to this day. He's also climbed Mount Everest, which is pretty damn impressive. He also announced today (his birthday) that he'll be opening his own UA-cam channel... so Charlie making this video on his birthday is also kind of an unintentional promo for his new channel I guess.... even if the majority of us don't speak japanese and will have no clue what he's saying.

I'm actually shaking right now with anger.
tysm for using his real name. it bugged me that charlie was calling him nasubi for the whole video.
This so depressing
@@themosaicshownasubi uses this stage name for the other activities he still does in his life. i have extreme doubt that it's a sensitive name to him, so you dont need to be offended for someone you don't know personally.
Womp womp
@@sortasour2964 oh i see. honestly pretty commendable, if i were him i’d hate that word for the rest of my life. thank you nasubi, very cool
the clip of him being surprised by the live audience looks like it came straight out of a psychological thriller
@scrambling blambles That literally is the truman show, but with no outside contact...
it would have been nice if the audiance could like donate things to him like the hunger games
Like that Black Mirror episode, I think it was White Bear
yeah, many things seemed so creepy, like straight out of a dystopian thriller. When he has canned food but no way to cook it therefore eat it....Theres a book called "i have no mouth and i must scream" where the protagonists get tortured in the same way,
could you tell the minute pls
The fact that they took him to an amusement park and gave him a fun day right before sending him back in is heartbreaking
Remember, it was never forced on him.

@@liminalb1rds158 im not sure "depends what kind of snuff" is a good qoute lol
Just the fact that nobody tried to break him out once the public knew of his location is kind of disturbing
This show also did other challenges, forcing people to hike long distances, build a raft to get to land, starving people if their baseball team doesn't win, etc...
Its sick as hell
Apparently one of the other participants was assaulted at a gay bar in a foreign country while participating in some campaign for the show and none of the producers stepped in to help him
He was a senior in college and this broadcast forced him to repeat a year, but his professor at the time happened to see it on TV and applied for his leave of absence. Thanks to him, he was able to go back to college and successfully graduate
All of what charlie said was fact (idk, i think). But he only mention the bad side of it which is kinda unfair bc its not the bigger picture of this case. So in 90s a lot of japanese comedian had to participate in these types of game show such as Silent Library(more extreme than the us version), this show, etc in order to be famous. Which they did, they get their fame from that and currently became the senior comedian and get to be a commentarors of current show, if you ever see one they are the people in those little box on the corner of every game show.
@@Filthyllamas please tell me the bigger picture of what this man went through. If you were in his place and people were angry for you, would you say the same thing? But please enlighten me about the bigger picture that clearly we cannot see about a man’s suffering.

What a good guy
He lived on rice, water, and dog food for over a year with minimal exercise. There’s no way he had a legitimate bill of good health
don’t forget the fiber jelly!
Also he ate raw meat.
Plus cooked meat as well.
I don't think eating raw meat is nessesarily bad for your health. It could be but only if it the meat is contaminated, which most meat probably isn't.
In a situation like this you're better off eating it. As you see it didn't kill him. I doubt it did him any harm at all.
You should still just cook it though, assuming you can. kill all the bacteria and make it more nutritious.
@@tomfish3244 Lol no, eating lots of meat is bad full stop.
What terrified me was the music, and the commentary in the background. It was a similar tone of voice and similar music to one of my fave japanese shows ever, Old Enough- which is literally about toddlers going on cute little errands. They weren't treating this like a tragedy- they saw it as COMIC.
Oh gosh, I love Old Enough too
The music and the announcer are extremely unsettling. You'd imagine it was meant to make the viewers feel uncomfortable, having such a contrast between the cheery voices and the miserable scene on the screen, but I think it was actually meant to be amusing and humorous. They really didn't see anything wrong with mocking the suffering of the "contestant"
His life was like an episode of Black Mirror. Very mind boggling and not too far off from a real life dystopia.
I couldn’t put my finger on it…but yes this could have been an episode of Black Mirror
Even with consent, this is still fucked up. The way the producers treated him is fucked.
The downtrodden's consent is often being taken advantage of cuz that's pretty much the only thing they can offer
I think the feigned moral indignation in the comment section is more fucked up.
You guys are literally crying about someone who voluntarily chose to participate in a Japanese game show that he could leave at any moment.
Kids these days love to find things to cry over.
Dude, he was naked.
I don't think it can even be qualified as consent. how the fuck do you expect someone in this moment to be able to make decisions?

I don't even torture my Sims, I just try to collect all the cool items you get from the careers and exploring. I'm basically a crow lol
I was feeling sorry for him at first but when he got the chance to leave he stayed. Man its his choice to be tortured! why should i care about him when he doesnt care for himself
He was coerced into participating, he was desperate to make a living and the producers took full advantage of that.
30:55 i never get emotional..but this actually made me cry. what the actual fuck. that poor man has already been through enough:(
I don't believe the "prizes" he won were randomized. Somebody must have carefully planned what he would receive for the sake of entertainment.
Totally! After showing his extremely long nails on the show, he won nail polish. What kind of sweepstake gives away nail polish?!
and funny how he suddenly breezed thru the challenge once he wasn't in japan anymore, maybe cus producers couldn't rig it overseas (apart from the obviously smaller goal)
Was about to say. They definitely controlled what he wins. Or else he would've gotten clothes at some point, or he would've died from starvation in the first month as he did not get food to start with.

been so speechless in my fucking life.
The fact this could happen to a Real person, let alone for the Entertainment Of Others, is genuinely mind-boggling. And, with so few, if ANY, consequences too??
Holy shit.
as a child in the special ed program of a not-so-great elementary school, i was periodically locked in padded rooms for sometimes up to 2-3 hours. that fucked me up for life.
even having that experience (which is admittedly not really similar), i cannot IMAGINE what being locked away from society for over a year would do to someone, much less being mocked on TV and starved in addition to that. holy shit
If it was a public school I don't think they can do that legally and if it was a private school I'd be concerned
@@PrettyVulgar92 it was a public school.
from what i remember of my state’s laws (it’s been a while since i looked at these laws & a while since elementary), they can indeed legally do that as long as they notify the principal after 30 minutes & the principal gives the go ahead 🙃
the rooms technically don’t ‘lock’ tho, but they do have someone on the other side holding the door at all times so… essentially they do lock, just not with a locking mechanism that comes with the door.
the upbeat effects when he is literally suffering is so sadistic and sinister. this is so black mirror like, its actually insane to me that there wasnt intervention at any point.
The end part reminded me so much of an actual Black Mirror episode called White Bear
It's also Japanese television, which at the time (and even now to some extent), it was all about entertainment no matter what.

It's so difficult to imagine this was real and happened in the mid90s. If this were a Black Mirror episode, it would be on everyone's "top 10 most disturbing" list.
It happens to this just have to go to the live section of tik tok or twitch
It's totally not difficult to imagine this I'm sure there are many other cases of remotely viewing people suffering for entertainment since the television frequency was invented and today we look at animals on TV almost the same way people watch this
Oh I can totally imagine that in any country with a employment problems. Where no company doesen't fucking need you without experience even with a good digress in university. And don't even get me started on actors/comedians. We probably woudn't have waiters, cashiers or food delivery ppl if no one wanted to try theirselfs as an actors... and just keep waited for this successful audition
I mean it is extremely similar to that one episode “white bear” or “fifteen million merits” and both those are incredibly fucked up. I wonder if the writers took inspiration from this
I would do this for money
this is truly one of the most horrific things I've ever seen.
You did a great job with this. Thanks for making it. It's like some Big Brother shit irl.
this ending with the walls collapsing and him being on a stage in front of hundreds of people is so dystopian and makes this whole event seem like a black mirror episode

YEP
only thing I could think of from the beginning. The way it escalated at the end is insane. I'm still questioning if this was faked somehow because it is so absurd
White bear
Yes holy shit I can hardly believe this actually happened. How Nasubi actually committed to doing it and never just said fuck this. I’m also shocked that the people watching just let this happen and no one tried to stop it somehow. And the fact that this went on for 15 months is insane. There’s just so many things about this that I simply can’t fathom.
i love how they tortured a man in front of a live audience for months, but showing his genitals is where they draw the line

@@AryanDatta I dunno, just popped up in my head akin to “with each story comes another.”
Unfortunately, that last one is pretty bad.
The difference between a hero and a villain...a villain says "the world hurt me, I'm gonna hurt it back," a hero says "the world hurt me, I'm not gonna let this happen to anyone else."
The simple fact that he hasn't murdered anyone is a testament to his kind heart and soul. Horrible true life Truman show
@Kavetion atleast moistcr1tikal has rights unlike you
@Kavetion dude. not a good time.
@Kavetion then why are you a nobody.
@Kavetion I’m sure this is just a bot. Report the channel, then ignore it.
@@Wendriz the fact everyone has replied to his comment not the OPs just makes his attention seeking stronger
The real life saw trap, but it's only mental emotional pain
This really is sad, good for him for completing it tho!
I agree with Charlie there's no way in 15 months he didn't win clothes the producers definitely had something to do with it.
Ikr the idea that for 15 LONG ASS MONTHS he didn't even win any clothes thats such bullshit
I doubt he even really entered sweepstakes. The whole thing is fake most likely.
@@carpo719 if it was then good
@@carpo719 If it was livestreamed then that means the torture he went through was definitely not fake.
@@carpo719 But it was live broadcasted? You believe they would they fake this for that long in the nude with barely anything to survive on? He was obviously in the apartment and people found him. He is seen winning the ticket. Would be pretty hard to fake. 355+ days in isolation don't y you think? He is seen physically deteriorating, his hair, his nail growth, his comments about anxiety. He's again in the nude. 24/7 live broadcast, moved to 3 different locations. How could this have "most likely" been faked? This was a live broadcast//stream so either way wouldn't they have always constantly been suffering? Why do you doubt this?
I refuse to believe he didn’t even win ONE normal bit of clothing, not a shirt, pants, underwear. Nothing? Foul play 100%
Especially knowing that they dropped him in Korea and then kept upgrading the ticket to keep the show going.
im confused because in america winning a sweepstake even 1 time would be incredibly rare is it different in japan@@Kintaku
@@jayemayyalldamnday I honestly don’t know. I’ve never participated in sweepstakes in Japan. But I do know that in the 90s even in the US they were way more common and you could win (for example) small charity sweepstakes more reliably.
There’s always a chance that he got unlucky in Japan, but the Korea bait and switch just makes me skeptical. It even makes me question whether things like the wrong address ramen delivery was an accident.
@@jayemayyalldamndayMan was entering literally thousands of them, and everything he won was pretty small potatoes for the most part.
I think he did won some clothing but the people that run the show didn’t gave it to him just because for money 18:55
i feel so bad for nasubi, he didn't deserve all this torture :(
the fact that he knows it was live-streamed and every moment could've been seen by people is the most damaging thing imo..
His real name is Tomoaki Hamatsu and he actually hasn't done that bad for himself. He's a local influencer in his area, eventually created his own acting stage group 'Eggplant Way' that travelled across Japan and he still gets on TV shows to this day. He's also climbed Mount Everest, which is pretty damn impressive.
He also announced today (his birthday) that he'll be opening his own UA-cam channel... so Charlie making this video on his birthday is also kind of an unintentional promo for his new channel I guess.... even if the majority of us don't speak japanese and will have no clue what he's saying.
I’m glad that guy didn’t turn into a Auschwitz’s victim
You can’t just say that without dropping a link or something to his new channel! We gotta brigade him with support!
