KILLER DOORS attack and kill thoughout Japan!
Topic: Japanese life

Boy dies after being stuck in revolving door in Tokyo
More... (Kyodo) TOKYO, Japan ....

My comment: These are no ordinary revolving doors, that you push but rather huge, compartments turned by a motor that fit up to 8 persons.
According to TBS TV news this morning (March 29), there have been 59 REPORTED cases of these powered doors attacking people.

Tokyo police raid building, door company in revolving door death
Tuesday March 30, 12:10 PM

Investigators probing the death of a six-year-old boy crushed by a revolving door raided the headquarters Tuesday of a Tokyo shopping mall operator and the company that built the door, officials said.
Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department agents looking for evidence of professional negligence in last Friday's death poured into the offices of Mori Building Co. and door-maker Sanwa Shutter Corp. Officers left with boxes of documents..... Sanwa Shutter has acknowledged it knew the doors keep moving about 25 centimeters (10 inches) after safety sensors are activated.
