If you want to do pull-ups at the torii gate, go for it. It's not up to us Japanese to angry. The shrine's deities will do that. It's not just one deity at a shrine. There are multiple deities. If you want to risk offending it, go ahead. I don't think it's accurate to say that Japanese people don't have faith. If that were the case, she wouldn't have been criticized so much. Many Japanese people take disrespectful behavior at temples and shrines very seriously.
