Only in Japan

A) They're showing the emergency drills at Ueno zoo as part of the news.
B) In training for a gorilla escape, they have some guy dress up in a plushie costume (disney character type), and be the gorilla, including pretending (I think, I was too busy boggling to actually listen) to be knocked out by a tranquilizer gun.
C) Then there was training for a poisonous snake escape, complete with fake snake (it looked like a tentacle, and thanks to [livejournal.com profile] caprine's influence, that sent my mind in a whole different direction)
D) And they had someone pretend to get bit by the snake, and went through the injection and CPR practice on a person. It looked like they actually injected something. I imagine it was saline or something.

Reality check: is this as weird as I think it is?
