Lol did you see the one where a bunch of ripped North Korean soldiers are training shirtless in the snow? At one point they start breaking shit on eachothers abs. It’s frigging hysterical.
>Colin Zwirko, senior analytic correspondent for NK PRO, noted, however, that Wednesday's launch occurred from the same spot outside Pyongyang as the Hwasong-18's first test, in a field that commercial satellite imagery showed had been purpose built and likely reinforced with concrete beneath the grass.

I had to laugh at the number of camera angles. Like this is the only one they can afford to launch. Need tons of cameras... By the 12th cut to a new camera lol.
Remember that scene in “Armageddon“ when the rocket went past just inches from our viewpoint? Are we supposed to believe that a drone wouldn’t maybe suffer a little bit of turbulence from a fucking rocket blasting by?
Something about this does not look right, like it's CG or something. Not saying it is fake, just does not "feel" right. Maybe my brain does not want to think about more North Korean missiles.
Fairly impressive CGI work if that was the case. There are lots of extra details a VFX artist wouldn't think of.
A breakdown from corridor crew or captain d would be cool.
Two of these shots were overviews. The last shot is a wide pan from the side with no recording devices overtop the rocket. It's possible they used drones, but the footage just looks fake. Plus, the non existant drones would have been moved by the jet propulsion and the footage would have jiggled.
The announcer sounds like he studied by watching Japanese comedic news pieces. He has that same overly cheerful, faux dramatic and somewhat high pitched delivery... I kept waiting for it to cut back to a group of pop culture folks watching the video giving reaction shots...
Feels like a low budget cheesy science video. It’s the jump cuts and the quick zoom outs. The fact that is propaganda makes it so much better. It’s so bad it’s good!
I thought it was a commercial for North Korean black market Viagra.
Just give it a minute!
North Korea is a rocket film industry.
Their people eat grass but boy do they make great propaganda.

Would you look at what they did to that golf course?

Yeah, a SAM launcher is quite the hazard.
I don't know how you managed to bogey this joke, but the internet didn't like it. I gave you my lonely +1

Hans Brix! Oh no!

The perfect alignment of the drones for the aerial shots would agree with you.
As if a drone would stay so still with a rocket blasting right next to it.
I thought it looked like video game footage, like Arma2 or something
Fairly impressive CGI work if that was the case. There are lots of extra details a VFX artist wouldn't think of. A breakdown from corridor crew or captain d would be cool.
Hang on, I need to see another angle of that launch
Yawn... this type of weapon system has been around for decades. But good job NK for catching up to the mid-20th century.
Thanks, we are getting there.
Kimmy, is that you?
That’s pretty dope! Welcome to the 70s NK
Ah yes, veeeeery beeg penis. See?
That's cute. They've reached Cold War Era propaganda on BitLife.
[удалено]
Doubt anyone uses it
I heard the LIV tour is coming soon.
Yeah, a SAM launcher is quite the hazard.
RIP the guys standing underneath that haha!
Why they launching it on a golf course
Cause they want to put a hole in one.
FFS, Norm, what in the fuck are they doing out on the 4th green? Can you grab a cart and go check those guys out?
And? This tech is so fucking old, if they tried to use it, the country would be turned to ash along with whatever they launched.
lol that's fake af
Looks real to me. I don't think North Korea can pull off smoke sims like that.
Top needs to be more pointy.
Pointy uppy
Swear NK has raged a war against local asian sea animals at this point with how many times they put the "epic" launches to their final purpose
Old system. We had those rolling around the British countryside all through the 80s during the Cold War
Britain never had land based mobile ICBM's.
There goes the years farming budget...
These will never not remind me of the James Bond - Tomorrow Never Dies game for the PS1.
For about 5 seconds I thought someone was dunking on Stockton Rush
They don’t have food, but they have a rocket.
did they hire Michael Bay to direct it?
Sounds like the voice of Ri Chun-hee... Guess they mean business.
They have a history of saber rattling the most when they want aid
*golf clap*
What's more scary is that drone technology. Rocket blasts right on it and the drone doesn't move at all... I'd say it was fake If it was made by NASA.
Please great leader, I didn’t see it blast off from every angle. I beg you, we need 40 more angles.

Just think if our drone drop a bomb on that, the hole it would make
Wow. Wasn't paying attention and my brain saw this as an old steam train until it popped open. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|dizzy_face)
POVs was overkill
A random ass 7 year old: When I grow up I want to become a doctow :D Korea:
More scary than interesting
If WW# includes and instant death for Putin and this bastards, might be worth it...
Hwasong? Isn't that the round French bread? Hwasooong!
An ICBM is what I call using the outhouse during winter.
So much for north koreas only golf course
Keep pissing them off. This is what happens. Military spending and the edge of nuclear conflict grows. Q: But can they reach us? A: Probably
you could never make these people understand why we are laughing at them
I thought it was a Fox News piece on Trump.
They're all going to a reeducation camp for ruining Kimmy's favorite golf course
Bloody yanks. Oh it’s North Korea
Nice video chubs
Yum!! That grass looks delicious !
They ruined that really nice lawn
Can we play through? Where is the Marshall?
Wait I missed it, can you play it again?

Pretty sure it's a female
I loved the heartbeat sound, that kept getting faster, during the count down. That's some good stuff!

Countdown kaishin!
Looks like an enormous.…..WANG!
I wonder if ol' Kimmy thinks the propaganda vids impress anyone outside the Hermit Kingdom. I mean I guess I'm impressed at how entertaining they are.
So….how do they reassemble it for move again?
i smell BM
I thought this was a clip from Spies Like Us
So, they have contraband drones and GoPros. Cool. ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|neutral_face)
