A launch ceremony for a new North Korean naval destroyer went horribly wrong in front of 'supreme' leader Kim Jong Un, according to state media.
Kim watched on in horror as the 5,000-ton ship was severely damaged after failing to launch properly.
He declared the mishap a 'criminal act caused by absolute carelessness' that 'could not be tolerated'.

In a statement KCNA said: 'Due to immature command and operational negligence, the parallel movement of the bogies could not be guaranteed, resulting in the launching sled in the stern detaching first and causing the ship to capsize.
'The ship's balance was destroyed due to a rupture in the hull in some sections, and the bow section was unable to detach from the keel.'

I wonder how many people he’ll kill - after all, it’s such a useful way of getting the populace to toe the line...

5,000 ton is really small for a warship these days.

Norks are really short people. They don’t need full size warships.

I doubt he experienced horror, after all his predecessors (or him) enjoyed killing people by dropping mortars on them

You do have a rather timely sense of humor, when it suits you. Good funny.

Their innards will be used to grease the slide for the next launch.
