N. Korean army gives brutal show of 'strength, bravery and morale' | AFP

North Korean leader Kim Jong Un overseas an extreme martial arts demonstration in which a row of men -- some shirtless and some in full military uniform -- punch through layers of concrete bricks or use their heads or hands to break them. The display, broadcast by state-run station KCTV on Tuesday, marked the opening of an weapons exhibition in Pyongyang that included aerobatic flights.

Its good to learn martial arts when your country cant afford rifles.

[HeavyArmsJin]

Okay but are they tough enough to withstand bullets?

Kim Jong-un looking like: "Damn I wish I could be this fit."

“Good… very good…” Kim Jong Un while eating a brick of cheese

[paulkowalik]

Very impressive but war is not a circus, all the flipping and jumping is useless on the battlefield.

What did bruce lee always say bricks don't fight back.

[LuisRuiz-svmz]

I remember being stationed in Okinawa and going to Japan for some winter training and watching the Japanese army training with the samurai. It's pretty impressive.

[jj]

It doesn't matter the entertainment because Kim Jong Un is always thinking about cheese.

[LEEOHNEL.]

Kim up there thinking to himself “these mf’s crazy” 💀

[gabriellockett]

These training exercises will definitely come in handy against guns, nukes, and grenades

Me and my friends drunk in the parking lot at 2 a.m.:

[amnizt]

probably the ruthless actively soldier out there

[marianb]

Are years of training for skills like that worth anything in modern warfare in distances of dozens miles?

[kadenchiu]

Did you know?

The South Korean army is still a shit ton stronger than its northern counterpart. Just google up Global Firepower 2024.

[anthonym.pacelli]

I understand they can stop bullets with their frightening yells.

[billmcc]

Wow. Someone's gonna have a bad case of arthritis if they live to old age.

[cringecorps]

Always the professional bad asses in the comments section that are unimpressed 😂 The only weight ya’ll be lifting is food to your mouths.

[sigmaman]

They cut the video too soon.. a few min later Kim was showing his skills 😅

[aman]

So long as America has Chuck Norris, I ain't worried

[UmurikenEmperor]
