TED video of yo-yo master 6/6
What is the most popular Japanese culture?
There are many unique things in Japan. They are Japanese animations, Bushu-do culture, splendid video games, mangas, and so on. Many of them are also popular in foreign counties. I’m happy to hear that Japanese culture is popular all over the world. Actually, some of my colleagues like Japanese animation and when I came here, I could talk about it and get along with my colleagues.
I found a TED video of yo-yo in these days. When I was a child, “Hyper yo-yo” was very popular in Japan. I also got yo-yo and practice some tricks. It was very fun that I play yo-yo with my friends and show up improving skills each other. “Hyper yo-yo” was less and less popular in Japan, so I don’t think that there are some people who play yo-yo for now.
In the video, the player shows his yo-yo skills in the TED conference. The conference held in California. Viewers are foreign people. His yo-yo skills are very fantastic. He said that he couldn’t give up his passion for yo-yo. He joined a company and he worked as system engineer. But he quit his job and practice yo-yo. Additionally, he started learning acrobatic skills, music, and so on.
He was obsessed with yo-yo but I think he tried improving his skills.
Passion is the most important thing for master something.
