Thumbs up Japanese Human Art

A friend just sent this link. I was expecting something worth a marginal polite laugh, but this you have got to see. One: just coming up with the idea. Two: actually making it work they way they did. Watch and let me know what you think.

A scene from a Three Stooges banquet type food fight might be more entertaining.
I watched a Japanese performing group set-up for their performance in 1961 at Bovard Auditorium at USC in Los Angeles. The actual performance was not as entertaining as the 4x4x4 foot box that contained all of their props. They set the box in the center of the stage and began unloading an endless array of props. It kind of reminded me of an entire circus coming out of a volkswagon bug...
I don't know what this has to do with what I just saw except to say, the Japanese are a delightfully creative bunch of people.

How many people dressed in black are involved in that gag?

It looks like quite a few but I didn't pause the movie to count.
