Are people other countries even allowed in north Korea? I'd really like to see this big fail with my own eyes. I can't get over 1:31 I mean it looks like it was specifically designed to launch missiles. Hell I wouldn't be surprised if the building itself came crashing down on some unsuspecting country.

lmao awesome!

So true. Living in the free world I spend every day suffering under the unbearable evil of Charlie Sheen. If only I had a statue of the dear leader to smile upon me!

Seriously though, it's funny that you refer to it as a kingdom, since that's what it is. It's basically a recreation of pre-revolution France: perverted royals living in excess and "happy citizens" starving.
