Japan did what Japan does best and took a ridiculous consumer product from the States and applied several layers of insanity to create their own version. I can’t read Japanese but I’m pretty sure somewhere in here it says, "Masturbating in public has never been easier!"

This is “Walkable Sleeping Bag”.
As the article says, Mr. Yoshiki Furukawa felt inconvenience about existing sleeping bags in 3 reasons.
1) Once I put myself into sleeping bags, I can’t grab anything until I crawl out.
2) If I were assaulted by a bear, I cannot stand up and run away quickly.
3) Cannot bend my knees. Cannot turn over.

So…. how are they supposed to get themselves out of the bag? They are pretty much screwed if they fall down.

omg it’s even better. The header reads “‘In this thing, you can quickly jump up and escape if you’re attacked by a bear in the middle of the night,’ but can you really go that fast?”
Where’s this ad from?

While I think the Snuggie is one of the signs of the End of Civilization, I’ve lived through a few Japanese winters — no central heating in the boonies, no insulation in the paper ‘n balsa walls — and I’m looking at that Japanese Snuggie and wishing I had one way back when…

Bears can attain speeds up to 35 mph. If a bear wants you, then being wrapped in a “walkable” sleeping bag ain’t gonna help

You would think the Japanese of all people would have applied embedded photovoltaic solar cell fabric to this creation, not only could you have stayed warm, you could also charge a device such as a cellphone or netbook. Oh well, Maybe Next Year.

Just add two sleeves for the arms and you’d have…a snowmobile suit.

So two guys are sitting barefoot by the campfire and a bear runs towards them. One guy starts putting on his gym shoes and the other guy says “Are you crazy? You can’t outrun a bear.” And the first guy says “I don’t have to outrun the bear, I just have to outrun you.”
