That amazing roller coaster is incontrovertible proof that North Korean weapons technology poses a grave threat to the United States.

Looks considerably more dangerous than the rides at Lotte World.

Looks like something you’d find in one of those really old amusement parks that can be found all over South Korea. Here in South Korea its a cheap and convenient way to spend a Saturday afternoon, in the PCRK (People’s Cultish Republic of Korea) it’s a vacation that took years of saving and planning.

Is this the first ever roller coaster in North Korea?
