“Human error is any mistake or accident caused by a human being.” What was once right is now wrong. But I still believe that I am the one who is human error. Still here, in Tokyo. I’m still skating. 「ヒューマンエラーとは、人間が原因となって発生するミスや事故のこと」かつて正しかったことが今は間違い。 それでも信じる自分こそヒューマンエラーなのかもしれない。まだここで、東京で。僕はスケートしています。
