Tokyo Window Cleaners Score



As window cleaning add-on jobs goes, this takes the biscuit! Window cleaners are used in Tokyo to perform football games at height. We were first introduced to the noble sport of Vertical Soccer a few years ago when it brought pedestrians to a standstill in Tokyo as part of an Adidas promotion. As you can see in the video, the sport basically involves playing soccer while hanging from a billboard on 26-foot bungy cords. How this sport has failed to spread to all corners of the globe is beyond me. It has all the elements you would want from a game: acrobatic moves & window cleaners as athletes. The referee is fired in from a canon... not really, but it would be justice.
