Kim behaves like a child.

He tries to look mature. Look at the choice of his glasses. The kid is gaining pounds, too.

I can only guess the consequences of a FAILED engine test.

Every time I see a pic of Kim he comes across as a third-rate Kingpin imposter:
At least Wilson Fisk does kill people with his OWN bare hands!

Who is the person that Kim is carrying on his back, the head of the project? And what are the consequences in a country like NK that Kim is carrying someone?

At least one person is getting enough to eat in N Korea.

what are the consequences in a country like NK that Kim is carrying someone? Basically, he is blessed for life. Those who had face-to-face audience with the holy one are on a fast track to success. They are given the top priority in promotion or economic benefits. Even kids who presented a bouquet to the leader at one of numerous routine state events are given special treatments.

What up with the “piggy back ride” in one of those photos?? (Aptly termed....)

Piggy back ride is sometimes an folksy gesture of gratitude or appreciation. Maybe Kim chose a folksy way of saying “Job well-done.” I heard that he is keen on showing that he has good rapport with people, unlike his father who was aloof and secretive.

Kim behaves like a child. He could pass for a democrat.

What a freak show. A murderous comedy.
To: TigerLikesRooster
This test is very similar to a test of a Titan II ICBM first stage test from the 1960’s. We see an orange cloud at initial firing that is rich in Nitrogen Tetraxoide oxidizer. We also see two smaller side plumes from the visible main engine. This leads to the conclusion that it’s a firing of an engine pair very similar to the Titan II. These side plumes come from the main engines turbopumps which are driven by small rocket engines using the same type of fuel as the main engines. From these observation we can conclude that the engines are for an ICBM of the Titan II class! This is very BAD for the world as this class of ICBM’s is capable of putting a 10,000Lb object into orbit or landing it anywhere in the world. Something like a large nuke maybe!!
I have some experience in this area as I have over 200 Alerts in Titan II silo’s!

I have some experience in this area as I have over 200 Alerts in Titan II silos! I pulled close to 400 Alerts as a BMAT and was in the Instructor Shop for a few years. I was looking at the exact same things you mentioned here. They may be perfecting the system for a large liquid fueled ICBM but, as you know, the system is complex and prone to leakage. There were many trials and tribulations bringing the Titan II into being and they will need to overcome the same obstacles. It could be bad for us if they do.

He just looks fat, the bullet proof overcoat,
bullet proof vest, bullet proof shirt, bullet proof
underwear, pants and shoes tend to make him bulk up...
