Human japanese pyramid collapse4/17/2023 (NaturalNews) The age of human delusion is rapidly coming to an end. After all, the single most important survival tool you have is the one between your ears. Personally, I simply hope all kids and their families enjoy one nice weekend day without injuries.“If you have the personal aptitude to be adaptable at every level - physical, mental and spiritual - you can and will survive almost anything thrown your way. Other parents said that's teachers' responsibility to stop students do anything dangerous. Some parents blame on teachers, who let them do that. About 40% of school didn't perform the gymnastic formation in 2019 but the rest of schools did, and 51 accidents happened including 6 cases of fracture. Currently, whether you perform human pyramids or not is exclusively up to each school. The bottom line is: "Safe and fun event at school!" What's happening right nowįinally, Kobe's education board (Kobe is one of the major cities in Japan) has announced that they will prohibit the gymnastic formation including the human pyramid after 2020. There are many people expressing their concerns about the safety, and the change may not take place before more serious accidents occur. We, Japanese are not good at breaking rules, or traditions. What is the purpose? Development of a cooperative attitude? Like making them the future-slave-worker who can obey working extra long hours without getting pay? Patience training? Like making them to be able to keep smiling face while their future clients are making huge complaints? Isn't it supposed to be the sports day event? Are we sure of the safety? Why do they have to show off huge pyramids as the highlight of the day? I think it's ridiculous. We don't even know why we can't stop itĪre we going to do it just because we did it last year? Don't you have such an experience? Now, we are doing it again just because it's the tradition. Children only starts training about 2 weeks before the event. The lack of preparation directly means the danger of injury, of course. Has the human pyramid been loved and prepared well by Japanese school children? The answer is NO, unfortunately. Of course, most of the schools don't do such a dangerous activity anymore, but it still remains. A student at the bottom position gets about 200kg (440lb) pressure. A student at the top position is 7m (23ft) high from the ground. I've heard that 6 or 7-layer pyramids were made at elementary schools, and 8, 9 or 10-layer pyramids were made at junior high schools. Compared to the current one it was rather small. I simply put up with the situation without doubting its safety at that time. I felt small stones on my knee and got huge pressure from the upper layer on my back. I was at the very bottom of the human pyramid. I feel bad every time when I read news about an injury of a student caused by collapse of the pyramid. It piles the human body to make the pyramid instead of stone. A Human pyramid is one of the major events. In the group competition, students perform gymnastic formation to show their artistic quality. All students have to join the festival and compete to show their sporting ability to their parents, teachers, and visitors. On the other hand, in Japan, schools hold a sports day every year. The famous festival, known as the Dahi Handi festival, is celebrated to mark the Hindu god, Krishna's birthday in India. Human pyramids are popular among many different countries.
