Forget marching bands – Japanese synchronised walking is the most precise thing you’ll see anytime soon

We were all recently blown away by the practised skills of the Fightin Texas Aggie Marching Band, when we saw them doing this:

That’s because we didn’t know that Japanese synchronised walking was a thing – but we do now.

They walked backwards in formation and it was still insanely precise. This could make rush-hour Oxford Street a lot more manageable.

One former captain of a competitive synchronised walking team – because that happens – said,

“People say Japanese youngsters these days lack the ability to work collectively in a group, but we just proved that we don’t. We all mastered this highly disciplined training and made it our habit to stick to strict rules. I believe this experience will be an asset as we enter into the job market,”

We sincerely hope they don’t start introducing this to job interview days.

Here are a few snapshots of other teams.
