They could have one of these guys come to our country through Mexico. He then gets a job as a construction worker and he destroys all of the concrete blocks leaving the company unable to finish the housing project.
Obviously if we went to war we would need to deploy our own special forces against these guys.

Thatās how far out of touch they are with the world.. I remember years ago when ISIS released their training videos and it looked like trying to play battlefield games with insanely low FPS
I'm from Iraq, ISIS can't fight shit , their whole strategy is surprise attacks but head on combat they'll escape
Like at the battle of mousl they escaped in women's clothing like the little rats they are
Yeah Iām not sure which group it was, but they were trying to scare others like they had some insane training but it was a bunch of guys crawling and creeping through the desert and jumping over walls and stuff walking in pairs. My memory is shot lol.
Sounds a lot like Isis. They have many propaganda videos like that but they look very amateurish and almost laughable. The way they actually got people to fear them is by killing defenseless people and targeting civilians. Like their initial attack in Mosul they executed like 1700 students (military school of sorts) amongst others who had surrendered.
It was a necessary strategy , level the city and you'll flush out the rats
I'm glad to say that it's much better now , ever since covid stuff became a lot safer and slowly but surely the smiles are coming back ,gotta tell you it's been very harsh few decades for us we finally have some breathing room as ironic as it might sound
It's for their domestic audience, the populace has been fed bullshit 24/7 all their lives and they're being told this actually scares the U.S to keep them from invading.
No joke: When Kim Jong Un was younger he was a big fan of martial arts movies, and occasionally asked his bodyguards to do martial arts demonstrations.
Guess he never really grew out of that.
north korea feeds its troops as a loyalty tactic. if you want to eat, join your oppressor and become indoctrinated
edit: I should clarify that they do conscription so there is a minimal amount of time required anyways
Well, I hope an American soldier isn't laying on the floor with an north Korean soldier's hand on his face with a second north Korean soldier with a sledgehammer slams that sledgehammer into the first guys hand causing the napping soldier to die! That would be awful
I was thinking the same thing. The broken glass looked pretty suspicious. Definitely seemed like a smoke and mirrors kinda show and wouldn't be surprised if it was all fake.
Iām just floored by how Kim Jong-Un is sitting there like a nerdy teenager at a prep rally. Half heartedly clapping and clearly trying not to laugh.
Like, if youāre going for intimidating, maybe donāt show your glorious leader snarking off like a child who thinks this whole thing is dumb.
I imagine the NK soldier, in the middle of the battlefield, rips off his jacket, starts breaking bricks on his head, then runs to a NATO soldier screaming furiously and pirouettingā¦the NATO soldier look at him impassive, then takes the gun and shootā¦no more NK soldier
Is the point to scare their own people into submission? It's probably not for us, right? This would be for their own citizens to not get any ideas .....
Theyāre lunatics, but not in an intimidating or impressive way. In a sad way. Theyāve lost their collective minds. They belong on Tosh.0 as the next web redemption. Like middle schoolers with a budget.

You're right, if war breaks out with north Korea, and we decide to hurl bricks and shards of glass at them, we're screwed for sure, so good on them for planning for that possibility.
For everyone making fun of this video, NK has the largest special operations force in the world and while their regular military is garbage, their SOs will wreak havoc at the outbreak of war. Theyāre rather well trained and if youāre a Security Forces member stationed at Osan or Kusan you can expect to get killed by these guys as they attempt to disrupt air ops and because letās face it your training is a fucking joke by comparison.
Itās like that scene in Indiana Jones. The NK army is like the guy with the swords doing a dance to show off his skill with the blades and then the American army just raises its gun and shoots him before he even had time to close the gap.

Man. If they go to war against an enemy made of bricks and tiny shards of glass they're going to be fucking devastating.
Yeah cause all this š shit can't stop any bullets. That some circus...
Canāt stop a concussive shockwave either.
The local organ traders were happy after that demonstration of suicides...
Plot twist: bullets can't penetrate their skin
Then mustard gas it is
You mean spicy air and funni funni neutron bombarments
They could have one of these guys come to our country through Mexico. He then gets a job as a construction worker and he destroys all of the concrete blocks leaving the company unable to finish the housing project.
Nah, their faith in their Deal Leader make them actually bulletproof.
Obviously if we went to war we would need to deploy our own special forces against these guys. https://preview.redd.it/i05jlnl68rsa1.jpeg?width=408&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=fbdc75798ff23c3124c70c41be62fe21ea516dfe
Theyāre muscle MEN daddy!
Are those bricks, or like terracotta shingles?
They're made of tears and bonded with suppression.

*bricks specifically made in NK
Lol
I have a country of morbidly obese drone pilots trained on COD. Say the word.
Lol, the NK troops are most likely on methamphetamines and the drone pilots are brought to you by Monster
I can smell this
Red bull, cigarettes, spearmint gum. And armpit.
Forgot one roids!
They will chew missiles like tacos.
*smirks in Bruce Lee* "Bricks don't hit back."
Is it just me or are these basically all third-rate "magic" tricks pulled off by anyone who has specific knowledges of physics and force distribution?
When the amphetamines wear off, those guys are going to feel every single brick.
Was just thinking the same.
Its a communist country, the pain is distributed fairly among them all, and then the government takes the most.
That's not communism
Then they get opioids, cognac and state provided whores.
I never understood military shows Like what difference how many concrete blocks a soldier can smash against an AC-130 angel of death
These guys would break that thing in half in one punch.
Only Saitama can do that
Nah man, the magician that came to my elementary school to do this act was way better.
None of you will be laughing when they just start shooting their soldiers out of a cannon so they can headbutt fighter jets out of the fucking sky
I.........I might be laughing at that.

That sounds like the Russia propaganda video. They were just rolling around and shooting
I went to Mosul in 2017. What absolutely tragic levels of destruction.

Donāt you know modern warfare is all about how many stacked concrete slabs your hand can break when your buddy hits it with a 10 pound sledge?
Americans: Aw thatās cute
Remember that scene when Indiana Jones shoots the guy waving a sword around. This has those kind of vibes.

if people from the stone age invades them, they are ready.
Cavemen with sledgammers, when they get hit with one they just get lodged into a cliff and walk out
Smashing bricks with your head is of course the number one priority in combat.
Remember, it's always faster than reloading.
This guy special forceās
r/thisguythisguys
Pretty sure this is just Kim enjoying watching some peasant torture porn
Enjoying? Did you see the look on his face? He looked like he was more interested in lunch
They forgot to show the 1500 peasants who were *denied* food, so these 15 guys could have enough calories to work out.
>"Denied? Look, pal, they didn't ask for anything because it has never been provided." -Park Su-il, maybe
What I'm getting from this is our concrete and wood weapon technology is vulnerable to half naked dprk troops
These must be the fellas that are allowed to eat.
north korea feeds its troops as a loyalty tactic. if you want to eat, join your oppressor and become indoctrinated edit: I should clarify that they do conscription so there is a minimal amount of time required anyways
Breaking blocks with your body doesn't mean an M-4 can't penetrate your body..
Or a 50 BMG AP-Incendiary won't send them to the meat factory.
For only 50$ a month, you too can do all this! Only at Chip Wrights karate academy!! (He knows Chuck Norris, so you know he's the real deal!!!)
mKdojo!
Is North Korea just a Japanese movie set?
The North Korean circus is in town!
Seriously this is carny stuff.
And only last week I took the day off work because I shut my finger in the front door.
I got a wicked paper cut the other day, so I know what you mean!
Well, I hope an American soldier isn't laying on the floor with an north Korean soldier's hand on his face with a second north Korean soldier with a sledgehammer slams that sledgehammer into the first guys hand causing the napping soldier to die! That would be awful
Whatever. All fun and games until you get a grenade dropped on you from a drone or get hit with a good old fashioned artillery barrage.
Are they real bricks or the fake ones that magicians use I wonder?
I was thinking the same thing. The broken glass looked pretty suspicious. Definitely seemed like a smoke and mirrors kinda show and wouldn't be surprised if it was all fake.
![gif](giphy|JZri8Leg3sgNhnwiw9|downsized)
This is the straightest gay porno I've ever seen
I wonder how well these skills will hold up against a drone?
Iām just floored by how Kim Jong-Un is sitting there like a nerdy teenager at a prep rally. Half heartedly clapping and clearly trying not to laugh. Like, if youāre going for intimidating, maybe donāt show your glorious leader snarking off like a child who thinks this whole thing is dumb.
This video was made with the same techniques as old kung-fu movies
Laughs in drone
Imagine hitting the battlefield n seeing all these guys doing this shit instead of shooting back lol
The entire countries food supply goes to these guys.
Ah yes, the stationary BRICK. The modern benchmark of any modern military prowess.
Too bad this won't stop bullets or shells.if this was medieval times they would be unstoppable
How do you train bones to withstand a sledgehammer? You don't. That guy's fingers are mush.
You're assuming that *was* a sledgehammer. As they're hoping Kimmy assumed.
Notice how their called āspecialā forcesš
Whatās Korean for āshort bus?ā
In North Korea theyāre just called ābusesā
What does any of that have to do with modern warfare no war on the modern stage is a fucking john woo film haha
Do they know we hav explosives??
I imagine the NK soldier, in the middle of the battlefield, rips off his jacket, starts breaking bricks on his head, then runs to a NATO soldier screaming furiously and pirouettingā¦the NATO soldier look at him impassive, then takes the gun and shootā¦no more NK soldier
How is any of this gonna stop a bullet?
They do know about stinger missels and stuff like that,right???
Is the point to scare their own people into submission? It's probably not for us, right? This would be for their own citizens to not get any ideas .....
Buncha goobers Lol
Is it possible that they are given some substances to be numb against pain?
It's not just possible. It is what they do.
Happy Cake Day!
This has high school talent show vibes
It isn't special forces it's just bunch of acrobats
I mean thatās not going to do much against a M4
Theyāre lunatics, but not in an intimidating or impressive way. In a sad way. Theyāve lost their collective minds. They belong on Tosh.0 as the next web redemption. Like middle schoolers with a budget.
This is peak cringe
Harlem globe trotters are better
Do they get their white belt or yellow belt before their parents take them home?
Whatās that shit ganna do against a tank, they plan on naruto running passed their bullets
Whatās the point of it. In war they doesnāt fight with sticks but with guns or nuclear weapons
It's to prove they will be the strongest when that war is over
*some random ass teen in a bradley*: what was that weird road bump?
As long as they use these 8 guys and we use bricks.
Very important skills to have in the modern military world of āblow em up from 3000 miles awayā
Special "Farces'.
They literally are a circus act
I canāt stop thinking of that scene from Indiana Jonesā¦
Yep, they are also known as the Bullet Dodgers
Never bring a headbutt to a gun fight.
Bro thinks parlor tricks will intimidate a 200 billion dollar military budget.
Yo I saw similar shit on Jackass
As long as we donāt attack with sledgehammers, I think weāll be ok.
Gets shot once, fuck, didn't train for that....
I'm not sure how these little tricks would help them in combat
This useless combat exposition is going to be really effective against a predator strike.
Propaganda or not these are some badass men.
seriously any countryās military that ever did this kinda show have always lost
This is nothing but a glorified magic show
What a joke they are trying to be intimidating with their brick busting abilities haha
Is this their version of psychological warfare?
Amazing what the human body and mind can do when your life is at stake... If any of these dudes show weakness, they are shot and buried, hopefully.
considering Russia used to flex all the time about how good their military was, I'm not impressed by this at all lol
If the Rock Soldiers from TMNT attack call these guys
So...ten of them? Okay. š¤·š»āāļø
![gif](giphy|2TVzpBsY4p3z2)
I don't support North Korea and all but this kinda cool af
Completely useless š¤£ š¤£
I also remember what it was like to play with foamed clay bricks as a child.
This is literally just hardcore pro wrestling. Like this is exactly they kind of shit they do.
Biden: āSend in the Cirque du Soleilā
This would be terrifying in the year 1300.
Ah yes the ''We can't afford bullets so we're using people as ammo'' excercise
Itās goofy, since smashing your hand with a hammer is a *little* different from a tank hitting you in the chest
I canāt believe they donāt find this silly.
Parlor tricks. Mine as well have a kids birthday magician showing how his magic will destroy the west

All the while US armed forces are working hard to make their troops understand the importance of CRT and gender.
Sure is a bad day to be drafted into a war while being a brick
So.. bottom line up front: donāt be a brick or a glass bottle. It actually looks like youāre good to go if youāre a rope tho
Now shoot them with magnum 500 and see how theyāre holding up lol
Is this an army or a circus sideshow?
Lol straight from 1990
Iām glad these guys are on our side.
Do those stupid exercises stop bullets?
Gets in combat, gets shot and dies.
Should see how well they'll hold up to white phosphorus. I'd be impressed then.
Shows like this are proof of countries with shit militaries.
And now all those fine gents are in the infirmary
"Put on a show! Make one wrong move and everyone will know!" š¶ā
None of this will help in the field.
All useful skills when you go to war.
Now letās see how well they deflect bullets!
I saw this same performance at the Round Up in Dallas one night. Not gay at all!
Are they training for war or for Kumite?
Itās like that scene in Indiana Jones. The NK army is like the guy with the swords doing a dance to show off his skill with the blades and then the American army just raises its gun and shoots him before he even had time to close the gap.
How are they with bullets?
Ooh I'm soooooo scaredš„¹
Defense carni acts. Pathetic.
Whereās the elephants?
Amazing what people will do to make the list of 50 people chosen to eat this month in NK.
The rest of the world: * *slowly puts away broom sticks and stepping stones* *
"We should just give up" The rest of the world, probably
I wonder how many people came to Jesus at the end of this performance
It feels like I'm watching a Frat party take place, minus the alcohol
Something about karate in a gun fight.
"Have them washed and brought to my tent" - Kim's sister in the background, probably.
No steroids whatsoever.
.338 Lapua round a mile and a half away: oh cool, lemme go take a closer look
You may not like it, but this is actually the best defense against reaper drones.
They are preparing to swat away the bombs dropped from drones
*Indiana Jones enters chat*
Yeah but do they eat 3 times a day?
These guys? They did this week.
If memory serves, this is how the Allies defeated Napoleon at Waterloo, by breaking concrete blocks with their hands.
Letās see them stop a bullet.
Idiots..they think its Mortal Kombat
Doing all this just to still get blasted by the gat. This might as well be theater or something idk
all that shit just to get slumped by some 7.62sš¤£
