Laughing is considered good for health. Experts claim that the more you laugh, the better your health is. But how would you feel if someone tells you that you have to laugh once a day.
Actually, there is a city in the world where a law has been made that people living in this city have to laugh once a day. Let us tell you about this special city and its strange law in detail.
Where is this city?
The city we are talking about is in Japan. Japan’s Yamagata Prefecture has implemented a strange law. Under this law, it is mandatory for the citizens living in Yamagata Prefecture to laugh once a day.
Yamagata Prefecture has made this law inspired by a study of Yamagata University’s School of Medicine. This research claims that laughing makes a person physically and mentally strong.
What will happen if someone breaks the law?
While some people are supporting this law, politicians like Toru Seki and Satoru Ishiguro are criticizing it. These politicians say that you cannot force anyone to laugh. By doing this, you are violating the constitutional rights given to the citizens here.
While, the government here argues that it wants to improve the health of its citizens by doing this. Actually, research by the School of Medicine of Yamagata University has also revealed that laughing reduces the risk of heart disease and increases the lifespan of humans.
Now let us come to the question that what happens if someone breaks the law. According to the government here, this law has definitely been made but there is no provision for punishment in it. That is, if someone breaks this law, he will not get any kind of punishment. Let us tell you that this law was made in Yamagata Prefecture after a research involving 17,152 participants aged 40 or younger.
