Otto died days after being returned to America because the North Koreans knew he was about to die and didn't want it to happen when he was on their soil. Make no mistake, North Korea killed him.
james fischer, in a country where the people are starving, they thoughtfully provide enough sleeping pills to prisoners so that they can get a good night's sleep. Or commit suicide. Whichever they prefer. Ya right.
@@charwest9449 Hanging is also a possibility. He would have healed with no evidence by the time he returned if he didn't signigicantly damage his larynx. Not that I don't suspect foul play on North Korea's part. But a suicide attempt that left him braindead isn't out of the question. There could be multiple self inflicted reasons his brain was starved of oxygen leading to braindeath.
@@Mia-ln1zs He would have been carefully watched day and night. He was obviously a special prisoner, and they had BIG plans for him. His show trial alone with all the media is proof of that. His dramatic obviously coached "confession". There would have been NO chance to try suicide. Plus, you could see he was being drugged as they led him away. I really don't think suicide was what caused his brain to be starved of oxygen. It's just an obvious excuse to absolve North Korea of responsibility for this heinous attempt to let loose their hate for America. The key for me is the 20 day lapse between when they detained Otto at the airport by telling his tour and everyone it was because "he was feeling ill" and the time 20 days later that they suddenly came up with "oh and he tried to steal a poster". I think they used that 20 days to interrogate him enough to learn enough about his life to concoct that "crime" get him to act it out so they could tape it, and only THEN announce to the world that they had detained him for "committing a crime". Otherwise why not just say, We detained him because he tried to steal a poster, from the beginning. Why the 20 day lapse?
I completely agree. The other diplomats that have defected have described how they knew they were lying but they had to for extremely valid reasons. Once they make it out they're such amazing people who aren't at fault for this situation. ❤️
He was actually framed. His friends mentioned he was out having drinks with them (his friends) during new years eve & returned to the hotel @3am. The footage of a person stealing the poster was captured @1am. So obviously it wasn't Otto (source: 60 minutes)
right? what does that have to do with a 22 year old healthy man dying under their watch... clearly tortured to the state of comatosis and returned before he actually died on their soil.
I live in Rio (which I'm just going to assume is hotter than NK) and never heard of that happening. Bed sores can happen if you are immobile in bed for a really long time, like a coma or something, but that's why you move and massage the person....
North Korea has a continental climate, which means their summer is very hot, does not have to be Mojave Desert. And the winter is very cold. Summer in korea is also very humid. That does not mean i agree with that speech i just wanted to mention this.
@@noahdyedotcom US doctors said "no trace of torture". So he hasn't been tortured. He just committed a sucid after to have been sentenced, but not died, just felt down in a coma. Many people commit a suicid after being sentenced. That's it. He swallowed himself a pill. And have a look to the photo, when he came back to the USA : he wasn't even in a stretcher. So the guy is in a coma and they took him like that, without a stretcher, to get him to the hospital ? Doesn't make sense. DPRK released many other detained without any problem. Warmbier was just a financial sucker student who didn't care about the rules. Like every financial student, they just think they are the masters of the world, and rules don't apply to them. By sentencing him, we probably avoided a new Goldman Sachs killer.

It wasn't necessarily swept under a rug, there's just so much you can do against it, and a whole cargo ship was seized as revenge for his death. It was also global news, like even in The Netherlands we were updated about this case so many times.
*Exactly; they treat Jong-Un like a god despite coming from a family lineage that literally threw lavish parties in Pyongyang while millions of North Koreans starved to death in the streets during a famine. They treat him as if he doesn’t run an army that shamelessly executes, threatens, tortures, and lies to their own people. They’re all scared for their lives there.*
@@Aziial But I wonder how they are still loyal to their government even knowing all, read articles about their evil leader and a lot of human rights violation they have its all in the internet anyway, if they know twitter then they probably see a lot of documentaries about it.
this man is saying that they tried to save him, and said that we’re supposed to be the most medically advanced and couldn’t save him either, but the fact that he was in such a state that no one, not even our best doctors, could save him, just shows how badly he was treated. No one should have had to save him because he shouldn’t have been in that state in the first place. I’m not a trump supporter, but he’s calling trump crazy for accusing that they tortured him, but what else could have happened to him? It’s not like he had to be carried out with an oxygen mask because of jet lag. Plus, he’s saying that trump is a pathetic man with a big man, when he represents Kim Jong Un, the irony. He can’t even answer the questions.
There seemed to be lack of oxygen. Either due to Otto's attempt to hang himself or due to drug administering. A N.K defector spy gives the 2nd occasion 70-80% chances. This rogue state has developed high tech biological potential .
A trip by college students to a place like North Korea is an accident waiting to happen! I would like to know whose bright idea it was in the first place! A heartbreaking tragedy... RIP Otto 💞
Yes moot a good idea. The travel company (run by Americans should have also been held responsible) it was advertised as a 5 night binge drinking party! Definitely not a good idea to get drunk in Korea of all places!!
Otto was going to study abroad in Hong Kong. Since he would be spending time in the area, he decided to check our NK, through a travel group called 'Young Pioneers' - the group included young people from Europe, Canada, maybe Austrailia. I think he was the only American.
Well, I mean, what did you expect? You didn't expect him to say "Yes, we tortured Otto and caused him brain damage. It's our fault", did you? It was a waste of time interview right from the beginning.
What's done is done. Otto had precisely NO business going to N.KOREA, much less China. When are American parents going to wake up to the dangers of world travel? Some of these countries that parents are sending their kids to is NOT like going to KiddieLand. God bless Otto's family and friends. R.I.P. OTTO W.
I'd heard he didn't steal a poster, and I've heard they found the poster in his luggage. Hard to know whether he committed the crime. Back then, you ran the risk of being detained and used as leverage against the US. I'm glad they've since restricted travel to the DPRK. I have a feeling that when it opens up again, things will be much different. Like with Russia and China, we at least need to get to a point where the citizens aren't caught in the middle of the tensions. I'd love to visit the N Korean people some day, when the risk is completely absent.
I love how he blamed america for otto dying 6 days after he got back like they did absolutely nothing wrong and he magically was unable to walk or do anything anymore. That's like saying someone got terminal cancer from being forced to mine uranium with a month to live and then they give the person back to their home country, and blame that country for not saving him.
The United States might be the most advanced in medicine but for goodness sakes we're not miracle workers!!! this guy Otto was totally beyond bringing back!
Key Question: Is their absolute agreement/proof Otto went to the 5th floor and/or took that poster? His roommate (UK) on the trip said he did not believe it, and the video footage was unclear. Is there consensus on this? I have always been curious about this as I followed this tragic case. I must say, regardless is he did it or not, he did not deserve to die.
@@californiaslastgasp6847his travel buddy said that they went outside and had returned 3am that morning.. that CCTV video was taken on 1:45 or something like that.. and his confession looks straight up fake.
@@rejim.philip9431 I watched recently the documentary where she said that it couldn't be Otto since they were not back in the hotel at that time. Maybe it's just me but it seemed that she wasn't very sure by saying it. Just her words and body language were not too convincing. I mean, if you make a statement like this and you're 100% confident about what you're saying, it would've looked and sounded a bit differently, in my opinion. Of course, everything is possible and in case Otto didn't touch this poster at all, it makes the situation even worse even if it's already the worst it can be.
@@silencestation557 Otto said something like, "North Korea has treated me very well" during his confession. That sounds completely scripted. Likely they tortured him and made him read some confession. I don't buy for a minute that his confession was authentic. Maybe the friend didn't know for sure, but I doubt the North Koreans did either. It was straight up Kangaroo court that he was convicted on.
Otto Warmbier was worth so much more to the DPRK alive than dead, or in a vegetative state. He was a pawn for them and, at the time, was one of just a couple of Westerners they had to play their game with. Doctor after doctor has stated that there were no signs of torture nor visible injuries to the extent that the parents claim to have seen on Otto's body. To those who say he was a healthy young man so they must have tortured him, healthy young men have underlying medical conditions that even they don't know they have, or can contract one or more of those conditions. The Warmbier family have my utmost sympathy for their loss, but without intentionally sounding disrespectful, I can't help but think they didn't want an autopsy for the fear that it may have brought to light something that could put their claims into doubt. Whatever happened, I hope Otto is resting in peace.
Once back in America, Otto ‘died’ when his parents requested him to be taken off life support. The actions which put him in such a vegetative state-the actions which effectively killed Otto and left a shell of a human being-were committed on North Korean soul. North Korea killed this man, no doubt. In America, he was simply allowed to pass peacefully.
His answers were very well prepared. If he only strayed away from what he was scripted to say he wouldve been murdered, very likely with his entire family.
Otto was already in a coma for what is predicted a year before he was released back to America. His parents saw his condition and the decided it’s best to take him of life support. So many theory’s of what happened but in my opinion is Otto would’ve been alive right now had he not gone to North Korea.
lol It's obvious they're not even in the same room. They never show both of them together, and when they do one of them is blurred out and It's always the back of their head. Weird
There wasn't found torture signs. You are such ignorant, you even didn't watch your news. Let's say you tortured, you came, as walking and died in 6 days how it's possible?
I don't understand why people want to go to North Korea in the first place. The sad reality is that a healthy young man went there and when he finally returned home he was a vegetable. We will never know for certain what happened to him while he was in custody in North Korea. Given their history of human rights violations it is plausible that he was tortured. It is very sad that he died, but nothing will change that fact. All his family has left of him are their memories.
Love how he doesn't answer any of the questions and just says the Americans are at fault for letting him die after he was released from their imprisonement
Higher ups in the North Korean regime know a lot more about the outside world than what you might think. This is especially true with Kim Jong Un in office, where as Kim Jong Il had a much more elitist methodology of keeping North Korean's pure and 100% homogeneous. This can be seen now by the advent of cars, cell phones, working personal computers as well as a working intranet within North Korean homes. Well, at least in wealthier areas.
You *_know_* that there's going to be some person who watches this video, and the only thing they take away from this is "Wow, even the North Korean guy knows how horrible Trump is." like a North Korean official in 2017 disliking Trump is some sort of revolutionary discovery.
mmm with regard to Otto Warmbier, North Korea clearly wanted to cause an international accident, ask yourself if his life has such a great value as to cause a national accident.
There's some specifics that don't get discussed much about Otto's condition: He wasn't "just" braindead. He was severely beaten, his arms and legs were broken, misshapen and deformed, some of his teeth had been ripped out and broken, he was intentionally blinded and made deaf - and somehow, whether by severe beating or some kind of drug - has severe brain damage. Otto was awake when he landed back in the US. Awake and screaming in agony, but he could not hear, could not see, could not speak, and his only reaction to any stimuli was agonal groaning and screaming. What happened to Otto was far worse than "only" being braindead.
You're SO full of it. A defector who had colleagues who dealt with him said he was "only" beaten up because he was too weak and pathetic (in their view) for proper torture. He did think he was drugged, though, in order to prevent him from coming and exposing the conditions he experienced in the country.
"We did everything to recover Otto back to health"
..
Why was he in that condition in the first place?
No one knows and I find it strange that his family refused an autopsy.

ermmm, its a good thing right HAHH
Sphiwo Rantabe I don’t wanna go to that shithole region anyways
I really can't believe all of this was just swept under the rug, and literally right when Otto passed. No body was talking about it.
No one talked but they have their thoughts on it even the North Koreans
My Opinion is a young Life shouldnt have ended like that or children who es as civilist in a war field or we dying in viruses Cancer etc
Every Country was his Tragic history and Wars wars Not only destroy the living Planet ans human lives they make the ground unlivable radioaktive they still dug Bombe out everythere even in North Korea From past wars
Trump was. The US government seized a NK cargo ship breaking an environmental law and gave the money to Otto's family.
It wasn't necessarily swept under a rug, there's just so much you can do against it, and a whole cargo ship was seized as revenge for his death. It was also global news, like even in The Netherlands we were updated about this case so many times.
Worse than dead. They returned him suffering great damage from torture. What they did to that boy is unforgivable.
Not even great damage, they practically killed him, but somehow managed to keep him alive long enough to not let him die on their soil.
Shouldn’t have gone to North Korea in the first place.
Imagine if the American had spoken of Kim Jong Un the way the DPRK official spoke of Trump.
Imagine an american speaks of Kim in front of that North Koreans
oops somethings bad would happen
*Exactly; they treat Jong-Un like a god despite coming from a family lineage that literally threw lavish parties in Pyongyang while millions of North Koreans starved to death in the streets during a famine. They treat him as if he doesn’t run an army that shamelessly executes, threatens, tortures, and lies to their own people. They’re all scared for their lives there.*
North Korea is like a box of nukes. You'll never know what you're gonna get
Hea right about trump tho
This guy was ordered not to speak of the truth obviously
Wait, how did North Korea have access to twitter? haha
khoa T the government officials have it, I guess
Only the government officials have it
Imagine for a sec, being a government official in North Korea. Your life would be totally different from anyone else
SMTR how fun having actual access to stuff like twitter youtube and even wikipedia
@@Aziial But I wonder how they are still loyal to their government even knowing all, read articles about their evil leader and a lot of human rights violation they have its all in the internet anyway, if they know twitter then they probably see a lot of documentaries about it.
dont be mad at the representative
hes making sure his entire family doesnt get publicly executed or tortured
He probably was anyway.
North korean system is like that one kid who tries to act smart but literally everyone sees through his bs
Arborly Bubble nope they know they speak bs and everyone else knows they speak bs
wrong. Us foreigners know it's BS. but they don't care about that. Their society is completely brainwashed, because that's the only thing they hear
Except for its citizens.
My thoughts and prayers are still with the Warmbier family and Otto. I'm so sorry for your loss..it's an international tragedy.
cia spook he was.
Amen!!! in Jesus mighty name 🙏🙏🙏 father give the justice and solace in the land of the living
this man is saying that they tried to save him, and said that we’re supposed to be the most medically advanced and couldn’t save him either, but the fact that he was in such a state that no one, not even our best doctors, could save him, just shows how badly he was treated. No one should have had to save him because he shouldn’t have been in that state in the first place. I’m not a trump supporter, but he’s calling trump crazy for accusing that they tortured him, but what else could have happened to him? It’s not like he had to be carried out with an oxygen mask because of jet lag. Plus, he’s saying that trump is a pathetic man with a big man, when he represents Kim Jong Un, the irony. He can’t even answer the questions.
You must be very intelligent, the North Korean man is obviously trying to not get killed by the government
There seemed to be lack of oxygen. Either due to Otto's attempt to hang himself or due to drug administering. A N.K defector spy gives the 2nd occasion 70-80% chances. This rogue state has developed high tech biological potential .
He knows if he told the truth, he'd end up like Kim Jong Un's uncle 😭😭💀💀
A trip by college students to a place like North Korea is an accident waiting to happen! I would like to know whose bright idea it was in the first place! A heartbreaking tragedy... RIP Otto 💞
Yes moot a good idea. The travel company (run by Americans should have also been held responsible) it was advertised as a 5 night binge drinking party! Definitely not a good idea to get drunk in Korea of all places!!
Otto was going to study abroad in Hong Kong. Since he would be spending time in the area, he decided to check our NK, through a travel group called 'Young Pioneers' - the group included young people from Europe, Canada, maybe Austrailia. I think he was the only American.
"He's just a pathetic man with a big mouth". Fine diplomacy
To be fair, this was not a diplomatic mission, this was an interview.
Well, I mean, what did you expect? You didn't expect him to say "Yes, we tortured Otto and caused him brain damage. It's our fault", did you? It was a waste of time interview right from the beginning.
I don't believe this North Korean man for one second
JacobMartinek101 nothing but lies lies lies
September Fumich I agree
힌지 힌지 Keep abiding by your god Kim, you mental rat.
Pastor Hass I'd prefer the Canadian media, because they don't make up how 'glorious' they are like the DPRK
Angel is NK troll
What's done is done. Otto had precisely NO business going to N.KOREA, much less China. When are American parents going to wake up to the dangers of world travel? Some of these countries that parents are sending their kids to is NOT like going to KiddieLand.
God bless Otto's family and friends. R.I.P. OTTO W.
I'd heard he didn't steal a poster, and I've heard they found the poster in his luggage. Hard to know whether he committed the crime. Back then, you ran the risk of being detained and used as leverage against the US. I'm glad they've since restricted travel to the DPRK. I have a feeling that when it opens up again, things will be much different. Like with Russia and China, we at least need to get to a point where the citizens aren't caught in the middle of the tensions. I'd love to visit the N Korean people some day, when the risk is completely absent.
Younger people than this man are shot to death in their school in America. Why do parents let their kids go to school in America?
Stay away. Plain simple. Or have the pain for the rest of ur life. End of story
Our doctors and nurses tried every form of torture we had he just didint die.
They made sure he wouldn’t be able to share his experience once he returned home.
Poor guy having to come up with good enough defenses or him and his whole family are doomed.
Our doctors and nurses made immeasurable efforts to save him.
Translation: he went to gulag
Can we just appreciate that this journalist is in north Korea roasting a DPRK politician. Like dam
I mean they do need some sort of heat but yeah the way he talks I wouldn't even say to anyone even if I'm angry...
I love how he blamed america for otto dying 6 days after he got back like they did absolutely nothing wrong and he magically was unable to walk or do anything anymore. That's like saying someone got terminal cancer from being forced to mine uranium with a month to live and then they give the person back to their home country, and blame that country for not saving him.
Sad part is he had to say that too or he and his family would end up the same way
When I heard he got 15year Jail and hard labour, I already know his chance of coming back alive is slim
Why am I actually kinda mad he’s talking down on trump
He definitely told the truth about trump, however it had nothing to do with the situation at hand.
Very Opinionated no, he really didn’t
You can blame N Korea for a lot, but not that.
I mean Trump is a pathetic man with a big mouth but two wrongs dont make a right
He’s talking down on trump and you felt bad.
So what do you think about, what Trump thinks of American's president *versus* Kim Jung Un....
It’s almost like watching a 400 pound guy calling a 200 pound guy fat and lazy.
Trump is around 300 tho.........
"You have a huge head" said the sparrow to the owl.
Thats impressive spin for putting someone in a vegetative state and twisting their teeth around
It make me get sick about what they did to him
i think everyone can agree that Otto Warmbier was indeed tortured to the limit and then sent back to the USA knowing that he was going to die.
The United States might be the most advanced in medicine but for goodness sakes we're not miracle workers!!! this guy Otto was totally beyond bringing back!
I'm so glad I was born south of the DMZ. Thank God!
It's like paradise vs prison, lucky you
It’s sad what the north civilians have to live and put up with food shortages and no freedom horrendous place 👍🇬🇧
Thank god, I'm an alien.
I wish you all would go up there and free your brothers and sisters from bondage
@@royfairchild6895easier said that done
He didn't even steal the poster, he just held it for one second
he brought that poster to airport.
I read an article that Otto's roommate said he bought a souvenir poster from a gift shop.
It was in his suitcase
Key Question: Is their absolute agreement/proof Otto went to the 5th floor and/or took that poster? His roommate (UK) on the trip said he did not believe it, and the video footage was unclear. Is there consensus on this? I have always been curious about this as I followed this tragic case. I must say, regardless is he did it or not, he did not deserve to die.
Yes, there’s video as well as his confession.
@@californiaslastgasp6847his travel buddy said that they went outside and had returned 3am that morning.. that CCTV video was taken on 1:45 or something like that.. and his confession looks straight up fake.
@@rejim.philip9431 I watched recently the documentary where she said that it couldn't be Otto since they were not back in the hotel at that time. Maybe it's just me but it seemed that she wasn't very sure by saying it. Just her words and body language were not too convincing. I mean, if you make a statement like this and you're 100% confident about what you're saying, it would've looked and sounded a bit differently, in my opinion. Of course, everything is possible and in case Otto didn't touch this poster at all, it makes the situation even worse even if it's already the worst it can be.
@@silencestation557 Otto said something like, "North Korea has treated me very well" during his confession. That sounds completely scripted. Likely they tortured him and made him read some confession. I don't buy for a minute that his confession was authentic. Maybe the friend didn't know for sure, but I doubt the North Koreans did either. It was straight up Kangaroo court that he was convicted on.
Well no Korean would touch that poster unless given perior permision
“All the money for nursing” 30 seconds in and its just a massive lie
Turn on english subtitles while the north korean is speaking. The auto generated subtitles are priceless
mans name dropped ronda rousey 😭
Interviewer : A young American tourist died in your country after being arrested and tortured how can you explain this ?
North Korea : Yes .
Why didnt they ask how he got the brain damage ?
Why bruh go to North Korea in the 1st place?
Otto Warmbier was worth so much more to the DPRK alive than dead, or in a vegetative state. He was a pawn for them and, at the time, was one of just a couple of Westerners they had to play their game with. Doctor after doctor has stated that there were no signs of torture nor visible injuries to the extent that the parents claim to have seen on Otto's body. To those who say he was a healthy young man so they must have tortured him, healthy young men have underlying medical conditions that even they don't know they have, or can contract one or more of those conditions. The Warmbier family have my utmost sympathy for their loss, but without intentionally sounding disrespectful, I can't help but think they didn't want an autopsy for the fear that it may have brought to light something that could put their claims into doubt. Whatever happened, I hope Otto is resting in peace.
In fact, reportedly the Korean guards considered him a weakling, thus sparing him of torture beyond "regular" beatings.
Whole interview?!
LMAO that's like asking liberals to tell the truth WARNING: don't hold your breath
Once back in America, Otto ‘died’ when his parents requested him to be taken off life support. The actions which put him in such a vegetative state-the actions which effectively killed Otto and left a shell of a human being-were committed on North Korean soul. North Korea killed this man, no doubt. In America, he was simply allowed to pass peacefully.
Out of all the countries he had to go North Korea
And he loves the N. Korean enough that he want a poster for survenir, LMAO, and he was like 28 yrs old. You can buy those poster everywhere, cheese.
His answers are like me writing an examination that I haven't prepared and writing the same answer over and over again irrespective of question asked
His answers were very well prepared. If he only strayed away from what he was scripted to say he wouldve been murdered, very likely with his entire family.
Otto was already in a coma for what is predicted a year before he was released back to America. His parents saw his condition and the decided it’s best to take him of life support. So many theory’s of what happened but in my opinion is Otto would’ve been alive right now had he not gone to North Korea.
lol It's obvious they're not even in the same room. They never show both of them together, and when they do one of them is blurred out and It's always the back of their head. Weird
he died six days after he came back because yall tortured him LMAO "it's a mystery" lmao
There wasn't found torture signs. You are such ignorant, you even didn't watch your news. Let's say you tortured, you came, as walking and died in 6 days how it's possible?
@@youknowmyfirstlastname3206 I feel sorry for you let me guess you live in North Korea?😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Not even asking hard questions. The NY Times is just as complicit.
The interviewer knew that Otto didn’t commit the crime. He was just trying to live.
they did everything to recover him back to health after they did everything to put him in that situation
Send them a bill for funeral expenses!
"based on those tweets, i think trump is a crazy man"
Pick another tweet, that one is the only correct on imo
The hot weather gives you bedsore for being in bed for some times? As a Medical doctor are you kidding me?i live in a tropical country this is false
lol
You should've asked how he got to that state in the first place
I don't understand why people want to go to North Korea in the first place. The sad reality is that a healthy young man went there and when he finally returned home he was a vegetable. We will never know for certain what happened to him while he was in custody in North Korea. Given their history of human rights violations it is plausible that he was tortured. It is very sad that he died, but nothing will change that fact. All his family has left of him are their memories.
This man just called our president a thug
That is the truth...
@@veritas4517 yeah leaders of china and north korea are angels
He was right about that. Glad Trump is gone. At least we can vote out our despots.
I loved the politics aside part 😂😂😂😂
2:07 He's not wrong there . . .
What else do you expect the guy to say when he prbly doesn't want to be publicly executed
He never answered the question about how the injuries occurred in the first place!?!?!?
if you had taken two completely different interviews and mashed them together, it would make as much sense as this utter madness
thats standard 60 minutes australia procedure
I feel like that last line was secretly about his leader as well.
No, it was definitely about trump and it’s all true.
"Based on this tweet, I think Trump is a crazy man" Without context, this sounds like something anyone would say lmfao
Love how he doesn't answer any of the questions and just says the Americans are at fault for letting him die after he was released from their imprisonement
oh yeah that guy DEFINITELY is telling the truth...
What a grammatically confusing title for this video.
Gotta love the pivot into how he doesn’t like Trump
So sad government of his country didn't do nothing for get him out ):
we did...
It couldn’t
yall gotta stop criticizing him for his answers, he’s trying to save himself and his family, and the next 3 generations
You have to be a lunatic to visit North Korea, Iraq, Syria, or Iran for vacation. WTF was this kid thinking??
Well, the Korean guy wasn't wrong about Trump
Nope. He was just exaggerating to distract the reporter from the Otto subject. He played right into the American media’s narrative
The real question is how this north Korean knows about twitter
Higher ups in the North Korean regime know a lot more about the outside world than what you might think. This is especially true with Kim Jong Un in office, where as Kim Jong Il had a much more elitist methodology of keeping North Korean's pure and 100% homogeneous. This can be seen now by the advent of cars, cell phones, working personal computers as well as a working intranet within North Korean homes. Well, at least in wealthier areas.
You *_know_* that there's going to be some person who watches this video, and the only thing they take away from this is "Wow, even the North Korean guy knows how horrible Trump is." like a North Korean official in 2017 disliking Trump is some sort of revolutionary discovery.
He's right.. Why did Otto suddenly die when he got to the US and the family didn't even ask for an autopsy??? 🧐
North Korea acting like people end up in comas all the time.
mmm with regard to Otto Warmbier, North Korea clearly wanted to cause an international accident, ask yourself if his life has such a great value as to cause a national accident.
2:14
Dude might be a North Korean communist, but he said one thing right about trump tho.
When your facts align with those of a North Korean communist you should get them checked out.
Ah, the good old days when the New York Times was a newspaper.
They covered up the Holocaust. They've always been crooked anti American filth
If u say treat him well how he broke his teeths?
How he cant heard? How he cant see? Become blind? You guys treat him so terrible just took 1 pictures
He should not have been in that condition when you returned him. That is insane.
There's some specifics that don't get discussed much about Otto's condition: He wasn't "just" braindead. He was severely beaten, his arms and legs were broken, misshapen and deformed, some of his teeth had been ripped out and broken, he was intentionally blinded and made deaf - and somehow, whether by severe beating or some kind of drug - has severe brain damage.
Otto was awake when he landed back in the US. Awake and screaming in agony, but he could not hear, could not see, could not speak, and his only reaction to any stimuli was agonal groaning and screaming.
What happened to Otto was far worse than "only" being braindead.
Omg 😮
source ?
Yeah I call bs! These people never name their source!
Well that was depressing to read. Hope it wasn’t that bad for the poor guy jeez
You're SO full of it. A defector who had colleagues who dealt with him said he was "only" beaten up because he was too weak and pathetic (in their view) for proper torture. He did think he was drugged, though, in order to prevent him from coming and exposing the conditions he experienced in the country.
