Folks who have been reading for a few years would have seen this video already. No YouTube at the time so it was on this server. Just uploaded it to YouTube - check the football pitch on top of the building too.High(er) res at http://youtube.com/watch?v=_Fv2X5GDbJw&fmt=18 if you want. walpaper also available in the wallpaper pool. Music by Chris Abbott.
Never seen before, nice video. It had a nice feeling to it.
Check out this one, from back in the day: http://www.vimeo.com/814772
The music was very nice :) Thank you for sharing Danny!
Awesome vantage point there for sniping videos... =/
Football on top of the building...very convinient...
Awesome video; loved it. And the music was very nice.
Wow , so lively...loved the music.
Great ;D
such a lively place...
Since you brought up soccer(futbol for non-americans), which sport is the most popular in all of Japan in your opinion?
Very nice video, Danny. The music fit perfectly. But you didn’t show Hachiko: http://www.flickr.com/photos/victor_lee/498953889/in/set-72157600203486664/
Wow, pretty nice video. The crowdy road's have a warm feeling in it. Was never like that in my country. And also , the music is so shooting and calm too. The football pitch on the rooftop is so cool. I want to play too. Talking about rooftops, I always want to go to a rooftop of a very tall building (any building will do) and observe anything from there. And if I can, I want to fly from there (and I mean really flying, not jumping off), but it's a pity human cannot fly...
Thanks Danny, this is a great video. Always enjoy watching it over and over again. Thank you for providing the hi-res URL. I have been using the Vixy converter http://vixy.net/ to convert and download to my HD. I like to do this with some vids to get the best quality. Anyone who is interested, the converter is a BETA for both Windows and OSX and is FREE. Not sure if it will remain that way once it leaves BETA.
I also took a video from Hachiko crossing... but it was a small one, and only while crossing it... no "air shots". It's impressive. And it wasn't even at a time were too many people are there....
The exercise on top of a building reminds me of Son Goku training on top of the tower during his childhood arc. In the manga, the training seems to be very effective on building stamina. ^^
Oh, I rememeber this. That's crazy that they have a soccer field on the building roof. =D
Really nice video, the music really brought it to life. I hope it showed more people doing about their stuff.
Loved the video. The soccer play reminds me of one commercial where two very famous tennis players were challenging each other on top of a very high building... Better not hit the ball too hard or it really will be out of bounds. ^^ I love the zoom capability, it always amazes me... A bit like a curious creature looking at the horizon and wanting to look for more. The same feeling goes for the inhabitants... From this distance they look like a colony of ants (no offense intended at all), with each having a role to fulfill. Even jaywalking becomes a trivial thing at this distance. ^^
By the way, the music reminded me of the one they used for the Last Emperor movie.
so with so many people how do cars cross the crossing? Do the cars have to press a button so they stop pedestrians to let cars pass?
Have not seen before...very interesting.
i remember this one and as always...NICE VIDEO ^^
SHIBUYAAAAAAA!!! I wanna go see Hachiko!!! I really really REALLY wanna go to Shibuya when I go to Japan. Gals! has made me love Shibuya!! Wowza... football pitch on top of a building... swimming pools I've heard and seen of, but not football pitches... Nosiree.
Just a side not, I haven't seen this video before, but it totally rocks. And that camera is AWESOME. And that was a few years ago!! It's probably sad how amazed I am at the zoom function....lol. And the music is awesome too. Reminds me of the Totoro music.
Wow, they play football ontop of the building... I wonder, has the ball fall down from there before?
Thanks for the video! Would love to go there one day once I've saved up enough money which will be a lot considering all the possible things I want to buy (Akiba comes to mind!). Wouldn't also mind a spot of five-a-side footy as well. Wonder why there were/has to be two refs to watch over a match on a small pitch....
The red light at that crossing must be about 4-5 minutes long? That's a lot of people! Wow my first time seeing a rooftop soccer pitch!
I wan to visit shibuya! T_T
Isn't that the same field used in Fast n Furious Tokyo Drift?
As i see the resemblance,I think it is.
Wow, we should start to put stuff on the buliding top. That will sure save us lots of space
when I was in japan, there was a batting cage on the rooftop of the building right across from the hotel I was staying at in Ikebukuro. First time I ever saw that.
woaaa =o!! that's cool!! awesome
nice video nice music ~
Loved it. The music and filming choices really makes one feel like one was there...and now I really want to be. :D
