I noticed that sometimes they don’t manage to wake up at their stop. ^^
You shouldn’t assume when they jump out at a certain station that it’s because it’s their home station. Sometimes they went to far and have to take the train in the other direction.

Nice picture! My husband has had similar experiences too (and he too always hits his head on stuff since he is 6-4). A long time ago I took a picture of a girl who looked poised to fall asleep straight into his lap. And I also don’t understand how they all manage to somehow wake up just in time for their stop. How do they do that??

I don’t know I have read a lot of blog posts with similar stories of them just waking up at the exact moment they needed to to get off. Maybe it is a japanese interal clock thing since the busses are so prompt. I notice that when lightly nap i’ll wak up shortly before I need to leave or do something. I dunno.

The Japanese are so amazing when it comes to sleeping, they can do it while standing up and anywhere^^ Also interesting how the sleeping beauty woke up at the right stop, would make me wonder if she was actually asleep or did it for some other reason…
