in Naha City on October 9th.
People filled the streets and used all their might to pull
the world's biggest tug-of-war rope, weighing 43 tons
and measuring 200 meters long.
THe venue for this event was National Route 58,
which is usually crowded with cars.
During the short time the intersection was closed to traffic,
how was this huge rope brought in and then put away so quickly?
The truth is that several large cranes worked together to pull
off this amazing feat.
