Tokyo commuter Katsuo Katugoru caused havoc on a crowded tube train
when his inflatable underpants unexpectedly went off. The rubber
underwear was made by Katsuo himself, and designed to inflate to 30
times their original size in the event of a tidal wave. "I am
terrified of water, and death drowning is my greatest fear," said
Katsuo, 48. "Unfortunately I set them off accidentally while looking
for a boiled sweet on a rush hour train. They were crushing everybody
in the carriage until a passenger stabbed them with a pencil."
