I was one of these lonely people, i isolated myself for eight years, i barely saw the sun, my reason was the pressure from society wich broke me down, and of course because you isolate you will get very depressed because that is no way of living, my advise to anyone going through this, no matter how terrible you feel, always have something in your life to wake up for and do, do not completely isolate no matter what, it is hell, i am eight years further now and am doung much better, i have a job and stable life, but i still struggle with aftermaths of the isolation, i cannot handle crowded places and i sometimes still struggle with social interactions, but i survived and am moving forward, if i can do it you can aswell, the terrible feeling will eventually go away, there is an end to the hell, hold on and find the power to push through !
I was there too man, for about 5 years. I was also suffering multiple daily panic attacks, real diagnosed depression, and anxiety. My life was really no different from being dead. Coping with warhammer 40k lore and strangely classic wow with guild community gave a pseudo sense of purpose. Call it character development if you must, but it certainly helped at least provide a sense of structure that I gradually transitioned with making money through gig delivering as a hobby. THAT forced me to be out there in the public and actually having to talk to real people face to face. Shit also made me create a genuine work ethic man. Today, I'm more hopeful for the future. I'm not even halfway through my 20s but... I feel like im "man'ing" up. Feels weird not hating myself, that huge self critical and cynical dark reflection not there. Haha I wish everyone to become the best version of themselves. I certainly feel like I just began
Recommend you to find a local community in your city/town and get more engage with the people there. Or you can start playing Pokemon Go and find the local community for raid boss there.
It is not just japan. It is everywhere. Society has become so toxic and scary. It is a lot easier to sit alone at home instead of having the pressure and danger of being out in public. Yes I am almost one of them. I leave the house to do what is needed and that is it. It is not about being lonely or being sick. As soon as I leave the house it feels like I am on a mission. A stressful mission. that only subsides when I am back home.
The fact is you have to be strong in todays world. Not in a physic way, but in a mental way, cause our way of life changes to fast in the last 40 years. Many governments had failed to take the people with them. Industrialization, socialism and capitalism have brought too many changes with globalism and digitalization, too quickly for people. The progress came to fast and overwhelmed many. In addition, there were many crises. Financial, health, and economically, we live in a time of populism and war. Which is getting closer every day. First it was the Middle East, now it's in Eastern Europe. A lot has changed socially too. Everything has become more fast-moving, traditions are being broken and social models are being questioned, and you have to do more to get the same thing as you did 40 years ago. This has become too much for many. And it seems this is a global issue among the industrial nations of the world. The goverment together with thier progress eats his children.
@@k_clean0I got realy sick for 5 months and I couldn't get help at hospitals. I went to 3 different hospitals and they all said I was paraniod. I'm lucky I didn't end up like this. Feeling like I was going to die alone wasn't fun.
I'm atheist, but I agree he was extremely respectful, I thought the praying before going on was also respectful and it wasn't just another job, rather than a man who sees it as a way to earn money. I'm not in japan, I hope I'd never need this service, if I did I'd use this company. I expert it can give lived once a sense of peace with his handling of the entire job. It's shocking someone so young can go 3 months without anyone realising it :(
As a young person, I do not really want to watch videos like this, but as this is a growing problem I will need to be facing the reality. Thank you so much for sharing all these videos with us. I have a lot of respect for you guys!❤ May this person rest in peace.
Cause girls rejects ugly boys, and that leads to being introvert, anxiety to express feeling, thus leading these type if case, unless family forces an arrange marriage and if the girl's loyal, thats a win win, until the girl devorce one after not tolerating their looks.
I may not be japanese but being out of your house working for almost 14 hours, only to get back to eat and sleep, having 0 meaningful interaction between people most of the day, and leaving your friends and hobbies aside. Every year that passes that feeling of lonelyness is worse. I hate this fucking world
I really appreciate how they pray for the deceased one before cleaning. It might seem pointless to some people, but it is nice to have someone show you a moment of care and respect in your memory.
to clear up some of the confusion The remains had been removed prior to the cleaning company coming in to work. After 3 months of decomposition there is still skeletal remains and the remnants are from decomposing fats. It appears he was unwell and was vomiting blood perhaps from a Gastrointestinal (GI) bleed and possibly had stomach cancer (from the brochure). It is sad that he was not found for some time ~ 3 months someone had to have recognized the odor and gone looking for the source as it was apparent from 50 meters away. May the deceased rest well in their new home
Yeah I was wondering about this! Since the body "liquified", what's left are only the bones? Must be a gruesome scene when they discovered his body... 😨
Watching this just broke my heart. Dying alone with no one by your side is the worst. It even took 3 months before his body was discovered. And it was probably just because the smell of decomposition was so steong that it disturbed his neighbors. So heartbreaking.
thats really awful reality, but it is.. when you cut every connection or relationship from everyone/family/friend/neighbor, thats the worst could had happen to them/us.. we are created to help each other and keep connected as much as we can
I always find it upsettings seeing their personal belongings everywhere. I saw drawings , art work on the wall. The uneaten food in fridge. The books , the cancer treatment leaflet ... Clothes, hat , umbrella and shoes..... The whole place tells a story .. The last person that turned on his tv , or hung his clothes was the young man ...still hopeful for life . Regardless the decomposition on the floor and bed , its still hard to accept hes gone. You cant help feeling the person is still alive. He has just popped to the corner shops and will be back soon. Isn't it sad that his whole existence is scrubbed out of that house ? As if he is no longer wanted on this planet . 😭😭😢 I feel so sorry for family or friends he may have had .... Im sure they regret not staying in contact or reaching out .... Maybe they did...who knows ? Life is so hard and so unfair for so many lonely people. Bless 😔😔😔
everything you said is true. the only thing we can do is to accept it but remember that there is also light and good in the world. if you focus too much on the negative, you will become it. its like the saying "if you look too long into the abyss, the abyss looks back into you".
Japanese and Korean society can be pretty brutal when it comes to having a future. Just look at how the idols are barely paid, jpop and kpop performers not having anything once their careers are done, listen to the manga artists that put in 60 hour weeks and cannot afford to live on their own, the system is broken. The cleaning service is doing awesome trying to raise awareness. They're going above and beyond.
"idols are barely paid, jpop and kpop performers not having anything once their careers are done, listen to the manga artists that put in 60 hour weeks and cannot afford to live on their own" Good, they dont deserve better pay anyways
@@talpatv512 In USA too, consider the seriousness of obesity rate in that country. Just a matter of time the US people in the beginning of the next century will be like Pixar's Wall-E. Along with Disney as they started to replace their employees with AI.
@@wallacesousuke1433you're a fckd up person. I hope people like who never get a chance to someone's employer. A fcked person like you don't deserve to be one.
The room feels strangely full of life even when the owner is dead. Clean clothes family tree books and so much story. What a remarkable person he was I wonder.
The cancer pamphlet appears to be for proton therapy for cancer and it is usually for cancers that are near vital organs or areas that are hard to treat and more. It also appears that the pamphlet inner section on the left side discusses a type of cancer called lentigo. Maybe he had a type of cancer that was difficult to treat?
@@MyFirstHandle I can say that treatments/medication for cancer do... something to the body. My grandpa went through treatments for pancreatic cancer, and I was astonished at his bowel movements. I don't know what decaying death even smells like but when I smelled him leave the bathroom after he started his treatments, that was the first time the deep instinctual part of my brain ever went "that smells like pure death". It was sad and he passed 2 years after being diagnosed.
I had a friend who worked for a "cleaning service". he was quite a harsh man, not really what you would call easily disturbed or shock. but he had to quit within a week, he said it got too rough. after he picked up brain matter from a suicide he had had enough.
@@zhang_hua1998 doesn’t mean your weak if you get demoralised or even traumatised by picking up splattered brain matter, everybody is built different, it depends on how you think about it or process it, which is unique to everyone.
@@DoktrDub I don’t mean weak in a literal sense. Weak as in you will have to be mentally and physically strong to work in a job like that; it’s reality
Loved the fact your company is trying to raise awareness about increase in lonely deaths. Also loved how you tried to read the room and tell us the story of his life... It shows you care so much about that person , that beautuful soul. I too was amazed by the beautiful " family tree book" ... Wow ! I heard some people say that modern life , the internet , social media, is actually making people more lonely. I find it so hard to understand why .... surely internet can help people stay in touch . Thank you for all you do . Stay strong , you are doing an amazing thing .. ..caring for the end life of a person. Their passing. I hope you get mental support , if you ever need it in this work. It cant be easy ...like you said . 💙💙💙💙
While we embrace internet because it connects us to anything and to anyone, it is also a very dangerous tool in our existence. Majority of what we see on socmed are unreal - happy people, expensive food, travel luxuriously and likes - we know that this are just facade. A lie to tell the world how awesome our lives are. Unfortunately, some people feel envious of these experiences which added to the loneliness they are feeling inside. And if being ignored - this kind of feeling can end up badly. Internet is good, if being used with caution. This is my opinion.. Thank you for posting this kind of video, not a happy one but definitely an eye opener.
@@pearlangelie most people use internet to cope like porn addiction and social media like tiktok youtube instagram 24/7 makes people dumber and more awkward
What it means is that yeah, the internet can allow people to easily connect and stay in touch with people, but it can also make it much easier to isolate yourself from society if you let it.
This is so sad. The whole building has to smell bad, why do the neighbors not report the smell? Maybe if neighbors would start reporting unpleasant smells the deceased wouldn’t go so long without being noticed. As a society we have to do better and start looking out for each other. May his soul Rest In Peace 🙏🏾
I just cannot understand why the neighbours would not report it. How could they even bare to put up with the foul odour. So very sad that they were alone and forgotten.
In Japan there is very strong “mind your own business” mindset (it’s considered rude to do otherwise). It’s so prevalent that Japanese people have ignored sounds and signs of abuse as well as incredibly obvious sounds of a murder.
Our neighbor across the street from us died outside apparently hanging his laundry and none of us knew until 2 months later . He was a loner , He had put up purple post and fencing around his house to keep people out . He did not like people coming into his property . We’ve actually thought he died several times but we’d see him pop back up again .. very sad . We never noticed anything off . Never an odor but we’re in a rural area . His house is about 200ft from ours and it was warm when he died but very cold when he was found . So the elements have a lot to do with decomp . So sad that anyone dies alone .
According to the video the apartment was well sealed, meaning it was built strongly. A well sealed room can keep decay odors from leaking out of a place like that.
This is so very sad, so much respect to you guys! I also love that you guys prayed before entering to show respect for the young man's spirit. To me I feel in a way, that the second time you cleaned it, his spirit was finally free from that attachment and you somehow in someway helped the spirit to move on and rest hopefully in peace. So I feel your job is more than a cleaning service it is a cleansing service as well. May you always be blessed and thank you for what you do💞
he probably got both. and no one was there for.him to talk too. he is young have is own place and things. he may not just get depress. he probably got good career. if it wasnt cancer
Typical in Japan to pay respects to the deceased regardless of whether you knew them or not or whether you are religious or not.. Even the police put their hands together in front of a corpse they come across on the job before beginning their work.
Terribly tragic and heartbreaking to finish one's life like this! How come nobody "missed" him- family,friends,workplace... He was terminally ill, wasn't he in any treatment in a hospital? Didn't they wonder,why he didn't show up any more? And doesn't people with serious diseases die in hospital? And what about his bills, the money stopped coming and nobody asked why (rent,elecricity, phone...) ? Watching this video and fate broke my heart! Only his belongings were left behind to tell his "story". My deepest respect to this company for their professionalism and utter honour for the deceased person.
sometimes Japanese society can be like this... people often are not close to their families... the culture is very closed off... I know because I have lived here for many years.
They are so busy with their lives to the point where there families felt like strangers to them. That's why it is important to have a balanced life... work and home.
Loneliness is worse than living a life with people who dont meet your expectations or standards. Trust me people need you no matter what you think about yourself- Ppl who are less fortunate, a relative or simply a work you are passionate about. If you feel worthless be with people who will look upto you for even the most basic of things. Volunteer, get involved, stay active socially, if unwell then reach out for help. Sometimes we continuously push ourselves to fit a life where everything is just seen from one perspective, please you do not have to see it that way. There is hope and love for everyone in this world, you just need to break free and move on to a suitable place.
Its so hard to understand how people can be dead so long and noone noticed the smell. 3 months !?! I have smelt some dead wild birds at first stage of decomposition , and will never forget how awful and strong it was .... but I cant imagine how bad the smell and mess is after 3 months. The poor young man .... God bless his soul. Thank you for helping in this way . You are angels and so caring 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚
You must have missed the man said there are no insects in the room because the room was well sealed. if there is no hole or entry way for insects to enter then the smell wouldn't have escaped that room.
@@The_Average_UA-cam_Enjoyer what about the part that said “the smell of decomposition can be smelled 50m away” im surprised his land lord didnt show up. Maybe he had auto pay set up?
Well done and so respectful! May the young man rest in peace and condolences to his family. Odd that they hadn't spoken for 3 months. Absolutely loneliness is a killer 😪
@flutterflyflowersltd8488 some people are what you'd call estranged from their families... abandoned for being disabled, severely mentally ill, homosexual, or some other reason like religion or betrayal...
That room is so damn small, living in such small spaces does increased the feeling of isolation and depression. Big open spaces with beautiful environment is needed.
Hmm... I've lived off grid for 5 years and prefer to be alone due to past bad experiences of bullying. It was the most right thing to do for me. I can go on for like a month without talking to anyone and only comes to the market to sell my stuffs. I prefer the quietness of solitude over the nagging of my mom, judgement of my father and society. The love of my life has married another man and searching for a woman who would fit my life as a farmer off grid is tiring.
So sorry to hear of your heartbreak and difficult past. Ive had to turn away from bullies and narcisistic family too.. Its not easy at all, but its so much more peaceful getting away from toxic people. Although you prefer to be alone now, which i totally understand , ..if ever you feel you want to meet people again, ..try and join a club or volunteer to help people in hospitals, charity ..or even church. . People who work here tend to be of caring gentle loving nature .and would be so happy to meet and get to know you. Keeping busy with your own hobbies and interests is the way forwards . Create your own safe wonderful world , and enjoy it to the max. Wishing you a great future full of love . 💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚💚🙏
Literally same for me,, apart from I live 3 mile from city Speak to nobody in the uk) I avoid family and city of all old mates,, exes u know how that goes,, I got dropped for another on new years eve by someone who was in open relationship behind my back with their ex waiting for the the person I was left for to join them 2021 and not dated since (27 years old) I wish I could move off grid tomorrow,, but not in UK,, As most house's (house apartments)are attached houses so no privacy or peace
It seems that I am not alone suffering in this world. I was taught by a friend that the reason we are here is to love others, even our enemies, and to pray for those who treat us ill and to help others who are suffering in this world. I will try joining volunteer groups and help people, as I am poor and barely scrape to survive.
I learned a lot watching your videos, I also like that you spread awareness about this kind of topic, thank you for sharing this. I feel sorry for that young man, may he be granted the peace he deserves.
This is so sad. I really respect you for doing this type of work.. I know I wouldn't have the emotional strength to do it. Thankyou for sharing this with us. 🙏🏽
I have a question if anyone knows. For an extensive service like this, who shoulders the cost of the operation? Is it the family memebers of the departed or the building management? This company is very thorough and efficient and work with so much respect and compassion🙏🏻 Admirable service!
The State claims your money if your bank account stays dormant for several years and no next of keen to manage them all so yeah the State should handle this when no immediate relatives manage your body
I have mad respect for these people. This is some real heavy work! Hope they take care of themselves and aren’t too often exposed to very strong chemicals.
I absolutely love the Japanese culture and how much respect and pride they put into their work and the respect they show for others... I have been watching quite a bit of these sorts of videos lately and I can say that this is a far FAR more thorough clean than anything I have ever seen... thank you for showing us a view into your work.
@@MrNajibrazak of course, I’ve seen it, it’s terrible, unless you live in front of the curtain like Beijing or what not, in other words the smiling face of China, where you suppression makes you unaware of the atrocities against human rights that are committed within your fancy capital city bubble. China is something else entirely, but it’s a fallacy to believe that the system in Japan should be dismissed and praised just because there are worse systems.
The work you carry out must be both physically and mentally hard. Especially when you know that the deceased was a young person & lived their final weeks or months alone & was in a very dark place mentally. May the souls of these poor people rest in peace surrounded with God's love 🙏
this is me right now but i like to believe things will change, well i hope it does one day. im 25 and can see why people have felt this low, rip brothers and sisters that couldnt deal with the same pain, no matter which country, i hope you feel at peace and have better look in the the next life
For all the lonely people struggling out there. Listen, you can do it and thing will be better! I never knew the fantasic people i have met now 5 years ago.
I hate hearing "things will be better", while it's a possibility things will be better, you don't know it. And often the people that have a hard time need to do something themselves for things to get better or wait for an eternity for chance.
Even with high respect before work, he left an important caring message. Wow. What a good caring guy. Hopefully his message will be out there, and people will continue to live and be loved, not distanced.
Japan is an AMAZING country, but as a foreigner, I think to notice how working very long hours affects the birth rate of the country and the number of depressions. I hope they can turn the tide before it's too late
Thank you for doing this type of work. It definitely is disgusting and i know i would probably puke when i would enter this apartment.. but.. someone has to do it. I greatly respect it, definitely.
This is very sad. Thank you for the awareness. At least people are becoming aware of the loss of young life so we all can do something about it and reach out to the lonely and beautiful souls.
Read the Bible...it is all explained, how that works...and how God's judgment works.....He did not leave us as orphans in this horrible place 🙏🙏🙏✝️🙏✨️theONLYway
This is the reason why I befriend my neighbours in Japan. I'm living alone and I have asthma so I'm not confident that I can live long enough. If they don't see me around within a month, I just hope they'll look for me and make a report.
Live and be grateful, don’t overthink the future, make sure to leave your best impression on people and do GOOD. You’re worthy of living, worthy of love and happiness !
It's a very sad world. We can only give hope and pray for people like this. Thank you to the channel for doing such a great job clearing up the aftermath in the face of such horror.
I came here from a comment on one of Spaulding Deacon’s videos. Something I noticed is that you all call someone dying alone a “lonely death”, whereas in the US it would have been called an “unattended death”. Just an interesting linguistic difference.
So heart breaking, poor fella ... all the lonely people in the world suffering all sorts of hardships. We need to build communities again, get to know our neighbours, understand that as human beings we need each other in order to gain a sense of belonging and support. How bloody tragic modern society is ...
This is a hard job you do. I guess I never thought there would ever be such a need for it. So sad what can happen to people and their dead and no one knows or cares until someone notices something wrong. Unfortunately, I dont think it will go away anytime soon. There are many lonely people everywhere. I think there are more since pandemic.
WTF? The situation have to be really bad if the ones bringing awareness to this topic are a specialized cleaning company.. Such a sad topic. I'm in my thirties myself and this is the time where young adults should fulfill their dreams and start founding a family. It's a good thing that you're speaking out for the people who can't anymore and maybe even were too shy to do in the past and were left alone with their problems. This has to be a emotionally very very hard job too, so every respect for you and your work. Rest in Piece,fellow human.
Japan have low birth rates and will soon died out in the future. We won't know whn but the race will cease to exist and now thiswhere young peoppe have mental health issues and mental issues are becoming epidemic.
The company I work for managed a large residential apartment block area in Chiba city and Narashino near Tokyo. One day me and the guy I work with were called to clear out an apartment where a lady had died alone. She had been found about a month later and her body had been removed but her skin was still stuck to the floor where her body had been. It was our job to go there and start clearing out her apartment. It wasn't anything we'd been trained to do and it was definitely way outside our job description. It was already nearing sunset when we were in her place and the power was off so as it got darker and darker in there, we both got freaked out and left LOL..We were both thinking "Fuck this!" Let the professionals do this...I felt like a burgler going though her private things...I never went back and strangely enough nobody at the company even mentioned it to us...Wierd. I'm not even Japanese. I'm from New Zealand, so it was bizarre that they'd tell me to do such a job for a dead Japanese women...These kinds of deaths in large public housing apartment blocks are quite common...I guess nobody wants to do it. Sitting in that dark gloomy apartment with the skin of that lady stuck to the floor where she had fallen was one of the most bizarre experiences I've had in Japan.
This is the most professional clean after someone dying that ive ever seen the attention to detail 💯....and that ozone fumigation is amazing... total respect to everyone around the world who does work like this without the relatives having to which would be so traumatizing to those involved....you all very much earn your wages which im sure should be considerably higher ❤️👍👌👌the message at the very end of the video was very humbling and loving caring sending out a message that things need to change....
I've heard that cancer patient decomposition smell is some one of the worst and if he also had a poor diet, was overweight its no wonder the smell was so strong.
Getting out of this social isolation is really a hard experience too. I remember i drifted away because i really got obsessed with a certain game for so long. After meny years i realize that i acturally need/want someone to talk to. This is where hell begins because once you find somebody to talk to you feel so happy that you want to talk to them again and again not to feel like shit and you become this annoying clingy person and the person dont want to deal with that and then oushes himself away. Its a constant cycle i deal with and its really had to get into a functional friendship circle when ya 33.. its like, if i had lots of friends allready i wouldnt need to cling to one person for social interaction, but then instead i get to talk with meny different people, wich gives them space and me aswell. But i will never get to such a point. I do realize that dying alone is a very real possibility for me and i hope i can serve at least as a small example that no matter how asocial or soxial anxious you might be, you need social interaction, we are human. Right bow im doing okey, but i really like if i werent relying on antidepressants to release my dopamine correctly. It also doesnt help me that i have a very niche interrest wich might narrow my possibilities with the impression i give off.
I have a lot of pet birds who die from time to time for various reasons and I bury them all with my hands. One of the things they do when their time has come(they somehow know its time to leave) is that they start starving themselves and they find a place where they are all alone. There they close their eyes and slowly leave their body. Dying is the absolute final step we do in our lives and so we need to prepare for it. My pet birds do so why can't I?
Very tough job, Full respect for you and your crew. I once knew someone(now deceased from old age) that also had a hard job, They were the ones called and first on scene to major accidents such as plane crashes, Trains cars etc etc They said you get used to most of it after doing it for many years but sometimes it was mentally tough such as seeing little children that didn't get to have a life.
Considering the cooling sheet for their head and the cancer treatment pamphlet this person probably just fell asleep and never woke up. Their suffering is now over. May they rest in peace.
I've been in the apartment maintenance trade since summer of 2016. At one of the places I worked I was unfortunate to be the first to find a deceased resident during routine inspections (every 6 months). The worst time was during the lock downs and the months following. 3 suicide deaths, two overdoses, and an elderly man who simply passed away one night in his chair.
Reaching out to distant family members is the best thing anyone could do, especially when you have no idea what they're up to. Great work and all done in a professional manner
you can not stop people from any age who commits suicide from happening. they are too many suffering from depression and too many others who are to busy to be concern.
There was a pamphlet on cancer. There was also a cooling pad that they said he had on his head. Which is used for sweating. This doesn't seem as if he took his own life.
The team really went above and beyond expectations to solve the horrible situation at hand. In America we don’t even go to the extreme of this extent! Very well done!
So sad seeing the home be emptied. A home has so many spirits, and it's a reflection of the person who lives there. When everything gets emptied, it's like it's being taken away, you can't do anything about it. It just disappears, the home is gone, empty. You can also see home as a metaphor for "Soul"
I would never be able to do this job because other than the smell, I would get too attached to the person who died just by cleaning up their belongings and learning about them through their things. 😢 Props to clean up crews who are able to do this kind of work. ❤
I’ve never smelled the smell of death but it has to be something terrifying. And also makes you think how penetrating it is that it can get stuck to concrete and glass. Stripping down the whole interior was a good idea, but I think the bacteria that were stuck to the interior materials of the home were also stuck to the concrete during the stripping process hence making it necessary to repeat the treatment.
I have smelled death before both animal and human due to work (elderly care) While both stink very foul.. something about human death even if you don't know what the scent is or where it's coming from gives you a sense of fear and anxiety it's very strange I wonder how it took so long for neighbours to report something
Yes i agree with others. It is a smell you will never forget . Death decomposiyion smell of animals i have smelt after death was shocking . Its so bad , that it makes you want to find the source and get rid of it . For me , it was impossible to ignore or get used to. The best example , is "gone off rotten " meat and fish ...but ten times worse. The door and windows were sealed very tight in that department ... No flies or insects got in , which is unusual , . So i imagine it took 3 months to find its way out . Maybe the neighbours could not work out where it was coming from . So many questions ....
One of my sisters also works in a similar service, but she works closely with the police cleaning criminal scenes after all evidence has been gathered and she gets the authorisation to proceed with the cleaning.
Excellent service. Amazed the neighbours didn't notice the smell. Can people in Japan call the police to do wellness checks on anyone who has not been seen for a while...at work or with friends and family. I hope things improve.

I was there too man, for about 5 years. I was also suffering multiple daily panic attacks, real diagnosed depression, and anxiety. My life was really no different from being dead.

Call it character development if you must, but it certainly helped at least provide a sense of structure that I gradually transitioned with making money through gig delivering as a hobby. THAT forced me to be out there in the public and actually having to talk to real people face to face. Shit also made me create a genuine work ethic man. Today, I'm more hopeful for the future. I'm not even halfway through my 20s but... I feel like im "man'ing" up. Feels weird not hating myself, that huge self critical and cynical dark reflection not there.

Recommend you to find a local community in your city/town and get more engage with the people there.
Or you can start playing Pokemon Go and find the local community for raid boss there.
@GeorgeMartinus honestly, before inviting anyone into our lives; we should fix the relationship with ourselves
Man if anything isolation and complete silence with too much free time is a formula for you to over think a LOT
May sound weird from a stranger, but thank you for not giving up!
It is not just japan. It is everywhere. Society has become so toxic and scary. It is a lot easier to sit alone at home instead of having the pressure and danger of being out in public. Yes I am almost one of them. I leave the house to do what is needed and that is it. It is not about being lonely or being sick. As soon as I leave the house it feels like I am on a mission. A stressful mission. that only subsides when I am back home.
I've always been a loner, it scares me that when my parents are gone I will be alone except for my sister and niece.
The fact is you have to be strong in todays world. Not in a physic way, but in a mental way, cause our way of life changes to fast in the last 40 years. Many governments had failed to take the people with them. Industrialization, socialism and capitalism have brought too many changes with globalism and digitalization, too quickly for people. The progress came to fast and overwhelmed many.
In addition, there were many crises. Financial, health, and economically, we live in a time of populism and war. Which is getting closer every day.
First it was the Middle East, now it's in Eastern Europe. A lot has changed socially too. Everything has become more fast-moving, traditions are being broken and social models are being questioned, and you have to do more to get the same thing as you did 40 years ago. This has become too much for many.
And it seems this is a global issue among the industrial nations of the world. The goverment together with thier progress eats his children.
It's the collapse of the Western World. It will only get harder.
It seems more that the internet is a socially acceptable way to isolate, unlike something like binge drinking
Society is way better then it used to be wtf do u mean? do u have any idea what life was like back then??
I absolutely love how respectful you are and how you pray at each doorway before entering!! You are true angels!
thank you so much.
@@k_clean0I got realy sick for 5 months and I couldn't get help at hospitals. I went to 3 different hospitals and they all said I was paraniod. I'm lucky I didn't end up like this. Feeling like I was going to die alone wasn't fun.
I'm atheist, but I agree he was extremely respectful, I thought the praying before going on was also respectful and it wasn't just another job, rather than a man who sees it as a way to earn money. I'm not in japan, I hope I'd never need this service, if I did I'd use this company. I expert it can give lived once a sense of peace with his handling of the entire job. It's shocking someone so young can go 3 months without anyone realising it :(
@@k_clean0 Can you mention the story of the person and pictures with permission
pray to who ?
As a young person, I do not really want to watch videos like this, but as this is a growing problem I will need to be facing the reality. Thank you so much for sharing all these videos with us. I have a lot of respect for you guys!❤ May this person rest in peace.
Cause girls rejects ugly boys, and that leads to being introvert, anxiety to express feeling, thus leading these type if case, unless family forces an arrange marriage and if the girl's loyal, thats a win win, until the girl devorce one after not tolerating their looks.

Yes and the very result of this we can clearly see in this video.
Terrible 😬
Theres more to life then hard work and money
I may not be japanese but being out of your house working for almost 14 hours, only to get back to eat and sleep, having 0 meaningful interaction between people most of the day, and leaving your friends and hobbies aside.

I really appreciate how they pray for the deceased one before cleaning. It might seem pointless to some people, but it is nice to have someone show you a moment of care and respect in your memory.
The guy didn't even know if the deceased person was fat or thin, much less the name, it's really just performative
@@azv343Maybe the size of his clothes gave them a clue...
The death won't have memory of this because they are dead
Agreed.
to clear up some of the confusion The remains had been removed prior to the cleaning company coming in to work. After 3 months of decomposition there is still skeletal remains and the remnants are from decomposing fats. It appears he was unwell and was vomiting blood perhaps from a Gastrointestinal (GI) bleed and possibly had stomach cancer (from the brochure). It is sad that he was not found for some time ~ 3 months someone had to have recognized the odor and gone looking for the source as it was apparent from 50 meters away. May the deceased rest well in their new home
Yes bones still remain especially the skull and hair. He was obviously removed by inspectors/crime specialist etc
Yeah I was wondering about this! Since the body "liquified", what's left are only the bones? Must be a gruesome scene when they discovered his body... 😨
there were no insects because the room was well sealed. so odds are that's also why nobody smelled anything
poor guy, must have been extremely painful
Maybe the neighborhood is that smelly that even dead carcass don’t make them suspicious 😂
Watching this just broke my heart. Dying alone with no one by your side is the worst. It even took 3 months before his body was discovered. And it was probably just because the smell of decomposition was so steong that it disturbed his neighbors. So heartbreaking.
It is . RIP
thats really awful reality, but it is.. when you cut every connection or relationship from everyone/family/friend/neighbor, thats the worst could had happen to them/us.. we are created to help each other and keep connected as much as we can
True and also nobody contacted him in these three months not even his family or friends.. so sad
@@swetasingh5SP not even his director. Judging by his clothes he must have been working, and even visiting hospital.
i would not mind as long as it's fast and painless.
I always find it upsettings seeing their personal belongings everywhere.
I saw drawings , art work on the wall.
The uneaten food in fridge.
The books , the cancer treatment leaflet ...
Clothes, hat , umbrella and shoes.....
The whole place tells a story ..
The last person that turned on his tv , or hung his clothes was the young man ...still hopeful for life .
Regardless the decomposition on the floor and bed , its still hard to accept hes gone.
You cant help feeling the person is still alive.
He has just popped to the corner shops and will be back soon.
Isn't it sad that his whole existence is scrubbed out of that house ?
As if he is no longer wanted on this planet . 😭😭😢
I feel so sorry for family or friends he may have had ....
Im sure they regret not staying in contact or reaching out ....
Maybe they did...who knows ?

Japanese and Korean society can be pretty brutal when it comes to having a future. Just look at how the idols are barely paid, jpop and kpop performers not having anything once their careers are done, listen to the manga artists that put in 60 hour weeks and cannot afford to live on their own, the system is broken.

The room feels strangely full of life even when the owner is dead. Clean clothes family tree books and so much story. What a remarkable person he was I wonder.
The cancer pamphlet appears to be for proton therapy for cancer and it is usually for cancers that are near vital organs or areas that are hard to treat and more. It also appears that the pamphlet inner section on the left side discusses a type of cancer called lentigo. Maybe he had a type of cancer that was difficult to treat?
That explains the strong odor and hard to remove it?
They might have given up on treatment exactly bc of that
@@MyFirstHandle I can say that treatments/medication for cancer do... something to the body. My grandpa went through treatments for pancreatic cancer, and I was astonished at his bowel movements. I don't know what decaying death even smells like but when I smelled him leave the bathroom after he started his treatments, that was the first time the deep instinctual part of my brain ever went "that smells like pure death". It was sad and he passed 2 years after being diagnosed.
I had a friend who worked for a "cleaning service". he was quite a harsh man, not really what you would call easily disturbed or shock. but he had to quit within a week, he said it got too rough. after he picked up brain matter from a suicide he had had enough.

Lonely deaths? No such thing! This is the vaccine
While we embrace internet because it connects us to anything and to anyone, it is also a very dangerous tool in our existence. Majority of what we see on socmed are unreal - happy people, expensive food, travel luxuriously and likes - we know that this are just facade. A lie to tell the world how awesome our lives are. Unfortunately, some people feel envious of these experiences which added to the loneliness they are feeling inside. And if being ignored - this kind of feeling can end up badly. Internet is good, if being used with caution. This is my opinion..
Thank you for posting this kind of video, not a happy one but definitely an eye opener.
@@pearlangelie most people use internet to cope like porn addiction and social media like tiktok youtube instagram 24/7 makes people dumber and more awkward
@@TransitionedToASharkStop exposing yourself as a person of conspiracy.
What it means is that yeah, the internet can allow people to easily connect and stay in touch with people, but it can also make it much easier to isolate yourself from society if you let it.
This gentleman obviously died from cancer, it is a real shame that he had to no family by his side. Rest In Peace.
This is so sad. The whole building has to smell bad, why do the neighbors not report the smell? Maybe if neighbors would start reporting unpleasant smells the deceased wouldn’t go so long without being noticed. As a society we have to do better and start looking out for each other. May his soul Rest In Peace 🙏🏾
I just cannot understand why the neighbours would not report it. How could they even bare to put up with the foul odour. So very sad that they were alone and forgotten.
In Japan there is very strong “mind your own business” mindset (it’s considered rude to do otherwise). It’s so prevalent that Japanese people have ignored sounds and signs of abuse as well as incredibly obvious sounds of a murder.
That part!!!
Our neighbor across the street from us died outside apparently hanging his laundry and none of us knew until 2 months later . He was a loner , He had put up purple post and fencing around his house to keep people out . He did not like people coming into his property . We’ve actually thought he died several times but we’d see him pop back up again .. very sad . We never noticed anything off . Never an odor but we’re in a rural area . His house is about 200ft from ours and it was warm when he died but very cold when he was found . So the elements have a lot to do with decomp . So sad that anyone dies alone .
According to the video the apartment was well sealed, meaning it was built strongly. A well sealed room can keep decay odors from leaking out of a place like that.
This is so very sad, so much respect to you guys! I also love that you guys prayed before entering to show respect for the young man's spirit. To me I feel in a way, that the second time you cleaned it, his spirit was finally free from that attachment and you somehow in someway helped the spirit to move on and rest hopefully in peace. So I feel your job is more than a cleaning service it is a cleansing service as well. May you always be blessed and thank you for what you do💞
cancer is one thing but despair is another
Yea
he probably got both. and no one was there for.him to talk too. he is young have is own place and things. he may not just get depress. he probably got good career. if it wasnt cancer
Love that they lit incense and said a prayer before starting. Very touching and respectful. A very important and insightful documentary. Thank you.
Typical in Japan to pay respects to the deceased regardless of whether you knew them or not or whether you are religious or not.. Even the police put their hands together in front of a corpse they come across on the job before beginning their work.
Terribly tragic and heartbreaking to finish one's life like this! How come nobody "missed" him- family,friends,workplace... He was terminally ill, wasn't he in any treatment in a hospital? Didn't they wonder,why he didn't show up any more? And doesn't people with serious diseases die in hospital? And what about his bills, the money stopped coming and nobody asked why (rent,elecricity, phone...) ?
Watching this video and fate broke my heart! Only his belongings were left behind to tell his "story". My deepest respect to this company for their professionalism and utter honour for the deceased person.
sometimes Japanese society can be like this... people often are not close to their families... the culture is very closed off... I know because I have lived here for many years.
They are so busy with their lives to the point where there families felt like strangers to them.
That's why it is important to have a balanced life... work and home.
Japan problem: workers work 18 hours per day and cannot make a mistake. Social life doesn’t exist and exist just for a group of rich people.
It is both a tragedy and a blessing that your service is available. I pray this young man’s family finds peace.
His family? No one contacted him for 3 months while he was decomposing alone in that studio flat!!😳😩😭
His famiy probably sucks ass
How much is this service though? I doubt it's cheap.
Loneliness is worse than living a life with people who dont meet your expectations or standards. Trust me people need you no matter what you think about yourself- Ppl who are less fortunate, a relative or simply a work you are passionate about. If you feel worthless be with people who will look upto you for even the most basic of things. Volunteer, get involved, stay active socially, if unwell then reach out for help. Sometimes we continuously push ourselves to fit a life where everything is just seen from one perspective, please you do not have to see it that way. There is hope and love for everyone in this world, you just need to break free and move on to a suitable place.
Its so hard to understand how people can be dead so long and noone noticed the smell.
3 months !?! I have smelt some dead wild birds at first stage of decomposition ,
and will never forget how awful and strong it was ....
but I cant imagine how bad the smell and mess is after 3 months.
The poor young man ....
God bless his soul.

I actually don't have any respect for a family, who didn't even notice a part of it is missing for 3 freaking months!
@klefleee it did make me wonder ... 🤔 why were there no ph calls , visits from family, I don't go a day without saying hi to my brother's and parents.
@flutterflyflowersltd8488 some people are what you'd call estranged from their families... abandoned for being disabled, severely mentally ill, homosexual, or some other reason like religion or betrayal...

may their souls rest in peace 🙏🏼

Hmm... I've lived off grid for 5 years and prefer to be alone due to past bad experiences of bullying. It was the most right thing to do for me. I can go on for like a month without talking to anyone and only comes to the market to sell my stuffs. I prefer the quietness of solitude over the nagging of my mom, judgement of my father and society. The love of my life has married another man and searching for a woman who would fit my life as a farmer off grid is tiring.
So sorry to hear of your heartbreak and difficult past.
Ive had to turn away from bullies and narcisistic family too..
Its not easy at all, but its so much more peaceful getting away from toxic people.
Although you prefer to be alone now, which i totally understand ,
..if ever you feel you want to meet people again,
..try and join a club or volunteer to help people in hospitals, charity
..or even church. .
People who work here tend to be of caring gentle loving nature
.and would be so happy to meet and get to know you.
Keeping busy with your own hobbies and interests is the way forwards .
Create your own safe wonderful world , and enjoy it to the max.

You’re not alone, Brad. Same thing happened to me.
Literally same for me,, apart from I live 3 mile from city
Speak to nobody in the uk)
I avoid family and city of all old mates,, exes u know how that goes,,
I got dropped for another on new years eve by someone who was in open relationship behind my back with their ex waiting for the the person I was left for to join them 2021 and not dated since
(27 years old)
I wish I could move off grid tomorrow,, but not in UK,,
As most house's (house apartments)are attached houses so no privacy or peace
It seems that I am not alone suffering in this world. I was taught by a friend that the reason we are here is to love others, even our enemies, and to pray for those who treat us ill and to help others who are suffering in this world. I will try joining volunteer groups and help people, as I am poor and barely scrape to survive.

I came here from a comment on one of Spaulding Deacon’s videos. Something I noticed is that you all call someone dying alone a “lonely death”, whereas in the US it would have been called an “unattended death”. Just an interesting linguistic difference.
So heart breaking, poor fella ... all the lonely people in the world suffering all sorts of hardships. We need to build communities again, get to know our neighbours, understand that as human beings we need each other in order to gain a sense of belonging and support. How bloody tragic modern society is ...

This is a hard job you do. I guess I never thought there would ever be such a need for it. So sad what can happen to people and their dead and no one knows or cares until someone notices something wrong. Unfortunately, I dont think it will go away anytime soon. There are many lonely people everywhere. I think there are more since pandemic.
Thank you for doing this video.. My brother died a lonely death, somehow this was a tiny bit of closure in some way.

WTF? The situation have to be really bad if the ones bringing awareness to this topic are a specialized cleaning company.. Such a sad topic. I'm in my thirties myself and this is the time where young adults should fulfill their dreams and start founding a family. It's a good thing that you're speaking out for the people who can't anymore and maybe even were too shy to do in the past and were left alone with their problems. This has to be a emotionally very very hard job too, so every respect for you and your work. Rest in Piece,fellow human.

The company I work for managed a large residential apartment block area in Chiba city and Narashino near Tokyo. One day me and the guy I work with were called to clear out an apartment where a lady had died alone. She had been found about a month later and her body had been removed but her skin was still stuck to the floor where her body had been. It was our job to go there and start clearing out her apartment. It wasn't anything we'd been trained to do and it was definitely way outside our job description. It was already nearing sunset when we were in her place and the power was off so as it got darker and darker in there, we both got freaked out and left LOL..We were both thinking "Fuck this!" Let the professionals do this...I felt like a burgler going though her private things...I never went back and strangely enough nobody at the company even mentioned it to us...Wierd. I'm not even Japanese. I'm from New Zealand, so it was bizarre that they'd tell me to do such a job for a dead Japanese women...These kinds of deaths in large public housing apartment blocks are quite common...I guess nobody wants to do it. Sitting in that dark gloomy apartment with the skin of that lady stuck to the floor where she had fallen was one of the most bizarre experiences I've had in Japan.

This is the most professional clean after someone dying that ive ever seen the attention to detail 💯....and that ozone fumigation is amazing... total respect to everyone around the world who does work like this without the relatives having to which would be so traumatizing to those involved....you all very much earn your wages which im sure should be considerably higher ❤️👍👌👌the message at the very end of the video was very humbling and loving caring sending out a message that things need to change....

This is where hell begins because once you find somebody to talk to you feel so happy that you want to talk to them again and again not to feel like shit and you become this annoying clingy person and the person dont want to deal with that and then oushes himself away. Its a constant cycle i deal with and its really had to get into a functional friendship circle when ya 33.. its like, if i had lots of friends allready i wouldnt need to cling to one person for social interaction, but then instead i get to talk with meny different people, wich gives them space and me aswell. But i will never get to such a point. I do realize that dying alone is a very real possibility for me and i hope i can serve at least as a small example that no matter how asocial or soxial anxious you might be, you need social interaction, we are human. Right bow im doing okey, but i really like if i werent relying on antidepressants to release my dopamine correctly. It also doesnt help me that i have a very niche interrest wich might narrow my possibilities with the impression i give off.
Maybe finding more interest can lead you to more ppl
I recently went to an event where they role played d&d or something like that
Are you Asperger's? They have groups now.
I have a lot of pet birds who die from time to time for various reasons and I bury them all with my hands. One of the things they do when their time has come(they somehow know its time to leave) is that they start starving themselves and they find a place where they are all alone. There they close their eyes and slowly leave their body. Dying is the absolute final step we do in our lives and so we need to prepare for it. My pet birds do so why can't I?
Cats do it as well. It's sad but it happens
interesting dichotomy, where the dead is respected so much, but those alive aren't given a chance to live
I give my 100% Respect for the whole crew doing this job.

Thank you for this ❤
Very tough job, Full respect for you and your crew.
I once knew someone(now deceased from old age) that also had a hard job, They were the ones called and first on scene to major accidents such as plane crashes, Trains cars etc etc
They said you get used to most of it after doing it for many years but sometimes it was mentally tough such as seeing little children that didn't get to have a life.
Considering the cooling sheet for their head and the cancer treatment pamphlet this person probably just fell asleep and never woke up. Their suffering is now over. May they rest in peace.
I've been in the apartment maintenance trade since summer of 2016. At one of the places I worked I was unfortunate to be the first to find a deceased resident during routine inspections (every 6 months). The worst time was during the lock downs and the months following. 3 suicide deaths, two overdoses, and an elderly man who simply passed away one night in his chair.
Reaching out to distant family members is the best thing anyone could do, especially when you have no idea what they're up to.
Great work and all done in a professional manner
you can not stop people from any age who commits suicide from happening. they are too many suffering from depression and too many others who are to busy to be concern.
There was a pamphlet on cancer. There was also a cooling pad that they said he had on his head. Which is used for sweating. This doesn't seem as if he took his own life.
You have helped many people out there in Japan, you are a very kind and special person as you comfort people. May you be blessed ❤
Thank you for watching the video.
The team really went above and beyond expectations to solve the horrible situation at hand. In America we don’t even go to the extreme of this extent! Very well done!
Definitely not an ordinary cleaning service video. This is like a documentary level content.
thank you
It must be so tiring everyday 24/7 trying to be the best just to keep living 😔
🙏🏼 Ty to these people who come and clean up. Very respectful
This is very hard work and they did it exceedingly well! I hope and pray they are paid what they deserve!
So sad seeing the home be emptied.
A home has so many spirits, and it's a reflection of the person who lives there.
When everything gets emptied, it's like it's being taken away, you can't do anything about it.
It just disappears, the home is gone, empty.
You can also see home as a metaphor for "Soul"

ご視聴いただきありがとうございます。
I would never be able to do this job because other than the smell, I would get too attached to the person who died just by cleaning up their belongings and learning about them through their things. 😢 Props to clean up crews who are able to do this kind of work. ❤
I’ve never smelled the smell of death but it has to be something terrifying. And also makes you think how penetrating it is that it can get stuck to concrete and glass. Stripping down the whole interior was a good idea, but I think the bacteria that were stuck to the interior materials of the home were also stuck to the concrete during the stripping process hence making it necessary to repeat the treatment.
I have smelled death before both animal and human due to work (elderly care)
While both stink very foul.. something about human death even if you don't know what the scent is or where it's coming from gives you a sense of fear and anxiety it's very strange
I wonder how it took so long for neighbours to report something
@@MonaLisaSarcasm yeah. It might be wired into our brains by pure evolution but I’m sure it triggers the ‘fight-flight’ instints.
Yes i agree with others.
It is a smell you will never forget .
Death decomposiyion smell of animals i have smelt after death was shocking .
Its so bad , that it makes you want to find the source and get rid of it .
For me , it was impossible to ignore or get used to.
The best example , is "gone off rotten " meat and fish ...but ten times worse.
The door and windows were sealed very tight in that department ...
No flies or insects got in , which is unusual ,
. So i imagine it took 3 months to find its way out .
Maybe the neighbours could not work out where it was coming from .
So many questions ....
the first time you smell it you immediately know that it's the smell of death
Those bacteria were probably not ordinary because it's probably from a cancer. This man said that it was 'rare' to find an odor so hard to get rid of.
One of my sisters also works in a similar service, but she works closely with the police cleaning criminal scenes after all evidence has been gathered and she gets the authorisation to proceed with the cleaning.
3 months before someone noticed? Shame on his neighbors.
Thank You for your Hardwork.
These guys are forms of angels, thank you for your work and kindness.
Excellent service.
Amazed the neighbours didn't notice the smell.
Can people in Japan call the police to do wellness checks on anyone who has not been seen for a while...at work or with friends and family.
I hope things improve.
