The description on the YouTube page says:

The missile, launched at Pyongyang International Airport, travelled up to a maximum altitude of 6,248.5 km and flew a distance of 1,090 km for 4,052s before accurately hitting the pre-set area in open waters" in the Sea of Japan, KCNA said.

No way is that altitude correct; it's high by a factor of probably x100. Any idea what it really was?

It is accurate, and it is actually the usual NK way of testing new missiles: they aim high. The result is that the missile does not travel too far, but this gives them sufficient data to see how far it can go on a normal trajectory.

The answer to this is at least 13000km, with payload up to 2000km. Basically, they now can hit any place in the US.

It’s accurate. They fly them straight up hundreds of miles in NK airspace to avoid potential ABM intercept in international airspace.

OK, now if I lernt proper like setten next to Jethro Bodine in Cifering Class

Flight Time: 4052 Seconds = 67.53333333333333 Minutes of I

Altitude: 6248.5 kilometers = 3882.6378947 miles

Distance: 1090 km = 677.29459954 Miles

(...before accurately hitting the pre-set area in open waters") in the Sea of Japan.

So they hit the Target that was the Sea of Japan.

So Chia Pet Junior lobbed a Missile to an Altitude of 3882.6378947 miles, Forward to a distance of 677.29459954 miles with a Flight Time of 67.53333333333333 Minutes or 1 hour 7 minutes and 5333333333333 seconds.

And all he got was a used set of Binoculars from President Trump.

Also look at the height of the rocket compared to the height of the tenders on the ground. These missiles, if true. are on the scale of Apollo boosters.
