  • Why Tokyo auto shows are better than Detroit auto shows

    Okay, this is just a bit of humor but you have to wonder if Detroit would ever put up a display like this at their auto shows:

      Another clip of the same thing

      I did not save the clip I originally posted because it did not seem like the type of content Y/T would remove. In this case, it appears the original poster removed the clip.

      Fortunately, there are many more clips online of the same content. It is a display intended to demonstrate hydrogen fuel cell technology. For some reason, they decided to use a large replica of the Belgium statue of a little boy peeing. The original clip showed the display being turned on by a "booth babe" and I found it humorous to watch the expression on her face as she flipped the switch that was going to make the boy start peeing!

      You can see a similar clip (without the booth babe) at:

      UPDATE: I found a clip that is very similar to the original clip and it does show the "booth babe" that was in the original clip:

        An Interesting Clip

        I had watched both the original one that Patches , had posted on in this thread . Along with the one she had just added just recentky on here too .
        both were very interesting to have watched . Though I had tried to watch the " Booth Babe " to see her facial expressions . Just had a hard time in watching her . As she had flipped the switches to that display .
        It' curious that other countries around the world are not as '' UPTIGHT '' as we are in the U.S. In showing that of nudity / that of peeing openly in public . That of showing a display of a boy peeing . To also demostrate that of the use of Hydrogen as a possible fuel un the future . That every single living thing produces naturally .

        I agree with Patches in the Humor of what the '' Booth Babe " was doing . That was funny in a sort of way . I just wish that maybe the U.S. should not be as '' UPTIGHT " when it comes to that of this type of display . Especially when it's a natural and a display of a Human Body . Doing what it's designed to do . Plus a thing of art work that's something to look at and not be ashamed in doing so !!

        Just My Thoughts on this ; I do apprecate what you had shared on here , Patche , It was good to watch

          Wow, that was creepy. O_o

          Interesting question though.
          Being from the Netherlands, I think that we are not that much more liberal than the U.S. when it comes to this kind of thing (when it comes to children). It does seem that tv from the U.S. is much more censored than Dutch tv. This includes things like cursing (f*bleep*k - like anyone does not know what was said) and also nudity.
          Obviously we know about Manneken Pis (the statue). It's seen more as a landmark than anything else, so it would not be too strange to use it like this here.

            If this would have been done in the US, someone would have been screaming "child porn".
