The only chair that I would be afraid to sit down on

The only chair that I would be afraid to sit down on photo

I am sorely afraid that this chair would suddenly open up its great maw and swallow me whole, leaving me lost in the netherverse that is Totoro's stomach. Nonetheless, I know some of you (*cough*Colette*cough*) are obsessed with all things Ghibli, and would love to own this. They're selling the chair for a measly 35,000 yen -- y'know, $350 or so. Plus shipping and all those other good things.

I don't remember how I came across this item, but suddenly discovered it sitting in my bookmarks today, and was reminded of how terrifying something like this is. I'm sure it's nice and comfortable, what with the chair being made from the skin of the actual Totoro. Once you fall asleep in the chair, it will come alive, summoning forest creatures to hold you down while it slowly eats you alive.

I told you it'd be dangerous to purchase this thing.
