I’m Your Pusher
April 21st, 2008 by Khumpty
Oshiya, or “pusher”, is an informal Japanese term for a worker who stands on the platform of a railway station during the morning and evening rush hours, and pushes people onto the train. This video is a good example of just how crowded it gets on Japanese trains.
Damn people, catch the next one!
I wonder what it looks like when the doors reopen.
They have yoshuma’s, or “catchers”, at the other end.*
*I made that up.
