Yukuzas cut off a finger to atone #video#Japan When a member of a Japanese Yakuza owes an apology to a boss, they have to endure a ritual called yubitsume, which means, chopping off their own finger! The pinkies are usually the first to go. For Yubitsume, the penitent lays his hand on a cloth and uses a sharp knife to cut through his finger, just above the top knuckle. Then he wraps the severed finger in the cloth and gives it to his oyabun, Yakuza boss. We once witnessed a yubitsume ritual and it's not a scene for the fainthearted!
