| Shigemi Hazama (631),
hilarious |
| He’s a superstar
in Japan. Not only for his TV comedy shows but also
for his singing talent, winning him many many fans,
including amongst our competitors who simply love
his mimics. When we went to talk to him about life
on the bivouac, he decided to centre the interview
on the delicate problem of natural needs in the wild.
The kind of topic we seldom raise on that website,
but central to runners’ preoccupations. Here
are his full comments (unfortunately without the
accompanying facial expressions): « the
big surprise here, it’s the toilets, I’d
never seen such huge toilets… [he points to
the desert]…but I must also tell you I am shocked
by the quantities I produce… can you imagine,
a man as little as I am… laying a cobra, a
real cobra…” Someone had to go there.
A Japanese star did.
