Vexing Question Of The Day

Perhaps it does not seem that vexing, but a conversation today came down to this question:

If a whale explodes in Taiwan, how much less likely is it to be caught on amateur video than if it had exploded in Japan?

Finding an answer can only help our standing on the Blogs of Note list.

Unfortunately, a Google search on "video cameras per capita japan taiwan" does not produce concise, useful results. Research continues.

Unbelievably, I'm on the edge of deciding that this sort of information is not available for free, unless you want to do a lot of work.
