Back on the right side of the dateline-a monkey wants to get back to Shibuya station as much as I do!
The video is of a monkey above one of the track signs at Shibuya station. The reporter is talking about how the police are trying to keep him contained until they can bring a net. All of the passengers are gawking and takine cell phone pictures. As you will see the monkey leaps over the net-heads out towards Hachiko-mae and then goes up on the Yamanote line and keeps going. The end of the video shows the police hunting him down.
Lots of familiar scenes in that video……Sigh. Lucky Monkey!
The video also points out he escaped from the Ueno Zoo and was in Setagaya for a few days before backtracking to Shibuya.
(H/t to Japan Probe!)
Too Funny. I laugh because my two year old son’s favorite book is the one of Curious George and the train. I’ve got to show this to him tomorrow…!!!
