“You can see the missile... actually going up” bruh

Kind of a bummer. I didn't want to see the intercept with Predator's eyes.

[BryanErnest]

"Will we see it intercept then?"
"Yes absolutely"

“You can see the missile..actually going up”


Yes, they tend to do that.

I don’t think people realize how difficult it is to hit a missile traveling at 4K mph from a defensive position. It’s like trying to hit a fly with a BB gun while riding on a train.

"Wow you can actually see the missile... going up"

[ulosophy]

4 years later and I still can't believe you can see the missile going up. Incredible beyond belief

North Koreans are so advanced their missiles intercept themselves.

Commentator: You can actually see the missile going up Me: oh wow, thanks for explaining I thought it went down

[johnnypickles]

Bro this is actually the craziest video on YouTube like, the missile is actually going up!? Who would have guess that’s insane!!!

[Sooner]

My question is, What if they missed the intercept? Blame it on Iran? Lol

[GabeSegundo]

Weird missiles usually "fly" underground but this one goes up? Incredible.

The world is slowly turning into *Supreme Commander 2*

[kluasking]

North Korea: how many interceptors do America have?

America: yes.

North Korea: what?

America: what?

I love that she just says, "Yeah..." when he says, "You can see the missile actually going up". Here I was expecting it to go down.
