Japanese Model Rubbed Her Chest 10,000 Times To Find Out If They’ll Grow Bigger

There are plenty of old wives’ tales in the world today.

I’m pretty sure your mom has told you some before.

Things like don’t leave rice grains on your plate or your future girlfriend will have a lot of pimples on her face.

Or if you have a fever, cover yourself with a thick blanket to sweat it out.

But among the thousands of old wives’ tales out there exist one that we all wouldn’t mind trying out.

Rub Your Breasts & They’ll Grow Bigger

Is this true?

While most of us don’t mind experimenting with this (in the name of science), the folks in Japan decided to put this theory to the test.

Meet Nana Yasuda, a 27-year-old bikini model.

She teamed up with Japanese broadcaster, TV Tokyo, to find out if the old wives’ tale holds water.

By trying it out on herself.

They were so serious about it that they even got in a “breast development counsellor” to come up with an optimal rubbing regime.

So here’s what he came up with:

  • Firmly cup the underside of her breasts
  • Transition into a palming and rotating motion

Sounds easy, right?

Except, she has to do it 10,000 times.

Deeming it too much for a single session, they decided to do it over the course of 2-weeks, administered by Yasuda herself.

(Yes, it’s not done by a guy. You’re welcome.)

Milestones Progress Reports

As with any experiment, if you want it to be as accurate as possible, you’ll need updates from time to time.

And here’s what Yasuda provided for hungry netizens like us. And when I say hungry, I meant hunger for knowledge. Serious! 

At 2,000 rubs, she said her shoulders no longer felt as stiff.

At 5,000 rubs, she claimed that her breasts felt bigger.

And at 6,000 rubs, she said they “are overflowing from her bra”.

Measurement Time:

So what’s the verdict at 10,000 rubs?

Here’s how it turned out for our resident beauty looking to challenge our worldview:

Before: 

  • Bust size (top measurement): 81 cm
  • Under-bust: 73.5 cm
  • Cup size: D

After:

  • Bust size (top measurement): 82 cm
  • Under-bust: 68.5 cm
  • Cup size: F

The experiment allegedly made her bust size grow by two cups and altered the shape of her bountiful mounds.

Although it needs to be said there could be other factors at work here. After all, it’s a two-week programme and there are many other factors that might’ve changed like her calorie-intake and whatnot.

But at least we know one thing for sure.

If your shoulders ache because of an over-generous chest, doing the prescribed rubbing motions on your chest might help to relieve them.

Nice.
