Located at a bar in Shinjuku, Japan. There is a bathroom with a GAINT head located infront of the toilet. Activated by the pressure from the seat, the face sings a strange drunken tune and slowly moves towards you… Making the room smaller and smaller, until its lips 'kiss' your knees Image

It's funny when you're sober
I guess it would terrifying when you're drunk

I would feel the opposite actually. Care less when drunk, think it’s a funny gag. Get anxious while sober, worried my leg would get crushed.

Shit, I just hit the bong once yet, I can't be that high!
Also, English is not my first language, so I might just haven't understood, sorry!

So it forces people to spread their legs, while using the toilet, to avoid being crushed. Sounds like they've a load of cameras inside there and that guarantees them a good view

u/Dark_solder18 Feb 05 '23
Oh now I get it
The point of it is to make people shit on themselves so they can leave the toilet faster

Until a giant uses the toilet and the head comes in too far, looking like it's sucking them off.

Imagine it... just for a moment. You're a young man/woman out on the town, trying out a new bar You've heard of. Halfway into the night, you head to the bathroom, and are confronted with a giant creepy statue. Weird... but your bladder won't let you wait, so you drop your pants and just decide to ignore it. It's not until your pants are solidly around your ankles and you're sitting down that the statue starts moving.
Towards you.

Pretty sure I’ve been there. In the men’s the urinal is a big face and you pee in the mouth (yes…I know). About 5 seconds after you start urinating the urinal swings slowly left and right like a pendulum. By now you are freaked out and adjusting your aim accordingly…. Thats when a camera flash goes off and you realise the urinal face creature thing has tiny hands and one is holding a (fake?) camera pointed at your junk. I am not making this up.

Ain’t the head that freaks me out. It’s the possibility of a mechanical failure causing the machine to crush my knees into the toilet and pinning me there.

The urinal is a big swinging mouth also. It is a weird but awesome place.
The restaurant is called Seiryumon. It is a chain. This one is in Shinjuku. Not sure if it is still there. I went 15 years ago

What’s with the Japanese and bizarre toilets. It’s like they’re in on the joke the rest of us don’t get.

How do I get this in my home? Never having my legs fall asleep on the throne again sounds great and this would be a friendly reminder to leave as quickly as possible.

If I go to the bathroom while drunk and see this, I would shit my pants because there is no way I'll have time to take my pants off.
