North Korea missle test fails

[EuroTroll]

Whether the test failed or success, I think i'm cocked

Since we have a South Korean here, I'd like to ask: Is it true that South Koreans are on average about 3 inches taller than North Koreans, or is this just a myth? Supposedly, it's because of better nutrition.

Hard to say because there's any official statics about north korean's average height (South korean's average height is 68 inches)
but depending on what i saw before at the tong-il tower (This buliding is 11km away from North korea)
The myth is seemed to be true ..
I saw the middle-age north korea farmer through the telescope, he looked like really short person (I think about 62 inches)

Thanks! I heard it first from a lecture by Christopher Hitchens who has been to North Korea. According to him, the difference is most notable in soldiers on the edge of the neutral zone, with South Korean soldiers always significantly taller.

There's at least one tall North Korean:

Ri Myung Hun - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ri Myung Hun (born September 14, 1967) was a center with the national basketball team of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. He was also known as Michael Ri, after his favorite basketball player, Michael Jordan.[1] Once declared the tallest living human being in the world,[2] he stands 2.35m (7' 8.5") tall and planned to play in the NBA in the 1990s.[1] According to the Associated Press, he was "the world's tallest basketball player."[3]

It because they have to walk so much. They don't have a Hyundai

Yea but the big check still goes back to the originating country. Something most Americans are to stupid to realize. We are in the 'Sh!tter" and all we can see is the next wave of assholes.

And it is nobodies fault but ourselves. We priced ourselves out of the market with Taxes, Over-regulation and political expediency in caving to the Unions.

You believe in the free market. You should not be speaking of anybody being at 'fault'.
