A Japanese 10-year-old has become the youngest person authorized to prepare “fugu” pufferfish — a delicacy that can kill if its poisonous parts are not properly removed.
Fifth grader Karin Tabira passed a test this summer that means she is now certified to slice and gut the fish for consumption.
She recently used her new skills to serve a platter of paper-thin slices of fugu sashimi to the governor of southern Kumamoto region where she lives.
Most adults are functionally removeded and can barely drive a car. These kids are the exception. Most humans are incredibly stupid.
the kids are also incredibly stupid. I saw about 15 of them throwing open sizzers 20-30 feet up a brick wall so they could catch it with their bare hands not even a week ago
No the kid is a statistic waiting to happen. There is absolutely no reason a 10 year old needs to do this other than bragging rights.
I like how being able to drive a car has become the metric that decides if you are removeded or not. Like come on. Cars are killing the planet and even if they weren’t they are the most dangerous form of transport by far. Stop hyping cars.
Also you can have physical issues, coordination issues or attention issues that make driving difficult, but can still be more level headed than the average person.
