2020-07-19 04:02:02 +0000 UTCDo you feel like filming these types of spiritual festivals takes a little bit away from the experience for yourself? I'm sure you're focused on where cameras are positioned, but what do you experience when you participate while filming?

2020-07-19 04:01:01 +0000 UTCI'm curious if warm water was a blessing or a curse. It seemed like it offered a moment reprieve, but then you were soaking wet in sub freezing temps. Was this colder overall than the Okayama fundoshi run?

2020-07-19 03:58:51 +0000 UTCHi John. Regarding the experience, what did you feel was worse, the initial feeling of cold as you went out or the cold you experienced after briefly feeling the warm onsen water?

2020-07-19 03:57:32 +0000 UTCDid you keep contact details of any of the other guys who participated in the festival? It would be great to share the production with them, they can then share with their friends! Of course 🇯🇵 subs from Hana or someone as wise would help them appreciate it a little more 🙃 They’ll also have fun trying to understand all of our comments on the video 😂

2020-07-19 03:55:05 +0000 UTCHi John! I know I've asked this in Discord, but others may want to know as well :) is the festival open to foreigners or is it more of a local thing?

2020-07-19 03:54:11 +0000 UTCAre there other events held besides this one in the festival?

2020-07-19 03:52:35 +0000 UTCHow hard would you think it’ll be to participate in these with little to no Japanese speaking ability? Can you get by with intuition? Would they be able to provide some sort of English instruction?
