Here's one of those articles about Japanese pop culture. I didn't expect this one since the conversation wasn't long enough, which then brought out some incorrect facts, but that's what happens when there's no fact checking or research.

It’s life and death, you just committed the worst crime, and well, either you turn yourself in, or you run. But the world is fairly big I guess, but where can you go and live? One of the Japanese dudes Shoichi Yokoi lived underground for 28 years. Hiroo Onoda did the same for 29 years.
