I like the top comments:
"I can't believe after all that, they didn't print in the article what the code said!"
"It probably goes against their beliefs, so it will take a while to mis-translate."

There have been similar videos from the other side as well, of course, those tend to randomly disappear from YouTube for some reason.

YouTube is strange.

None the less. regardless of sides, wish they'd stop fighting. Not like anyone's ever going to win anything anyway.

North Korea, you crazy...
No more ridiculous or unbelievable than the cultural myth-beliefs of much of the rest of humanity.

So you're often jammed up on it in a 125 mile jam during a blizzard with no civilisation directly around you?

I though that driving through the English countryside was limited to 125 miles before you hit water :mrgreen:
(May very well be my own country I am now confused with 8-))

Its jams are legendary. It does not really matter how far from civilisation you are, if you still cannot get to it. All that will have changed in Russia is peoples belief that attempting to travel in blizzard conditions is now a viable thing to do. Wrong.
