      Click bait title or what!! Unbelievable!! Not even the leaf on the plant is moving. Talk about a staged scene! Anyone who hasn't watched the video, there is no actual earthquake. It's completely staged. As you see, not one thing is moving. Who would terrorize their child like that?

      When my grandpa died and Granny became too old to stay by herself in the village we moved her into a small apartment close to us. Loved having her within walking distance and you could tell it was good for her as well to see us that often but also have stuff like stores and doctors within walking distance as well.

    I think that most people may fail to grasp is just how amazing it is for the family to allow the filming to happen. This is insanely private, and it’s a privilege to be allowed to see a real slice of Japanese life at an important part of the year. Also, super scary to be caught in an earthquake. Fun fact, Astoria Queens just had a small earthquake a few weeks ago. Very odd. Buildings certainly are not built for that in that part of the world.

    Glad that everyone is safe! Wolfy is beyond precious!! His excitement and everyone's keeping calm was wonderful. Somehow, having a child in the group makes everyone focus on kiddo's reaction and takes away from adults' own. Was so grateful for friends and family's welfare but brokenhearted for all affected. 🎉
