A little more detail on the tree incident, American forces wanted to trim the tree at the DMZ because the tree blocked sightline from a South Korean observation tower which the North Korean forces can manoeuvre behind to set up strategic position. A team of American and South Korean solideres went to trim the tree but was met by a North Korean captain calming the tree was planted by Kim John il and prohibited the American forces from cutting it they ignore it the the short tempered North Korean captain ordered to “kill those bastards” and the rest is history
One of my grandpas friends was actually one of the two Americans that died in the axe murder incident, and apparently they cut down the tree because it blocked the view of what the North Koreans were doing
5:50 is just… perfect for me. It completely matches my sense of humor to an uncanny level. I literally just finished thinking that exact same thing as a pinch line and **IT HAPPENED.**
2:29 Honestly, the idea that a random North Korean can casually split a log lengthwise with his bare hands like it's no big deal is far more intimidating to me as an American than any propaganda they could com up with.
I haven't laughed until it hurt in a long time. The description of the absolutely insane arsenal we brought along to chop down a tree just as a big middle finger is almost cartoonish. I can hardly believe that actually happened. I can't imagine the pure panic when everything started showing up.

@@Shiestey You mean "we poke and prod everyone, but when someone tries to bite back just a little bit, we go fuck this guy". Then say we were the good guys all along.
Yes. The unusual show of force wasn't so much to make North Korea back down, it was to make China back down. War with NK means war with China. Period. Every year the joint forces of South Korean, US, and all US allies in the Pacific theatre practice a full scale war in full view of the North Korean forces... Every year. It was called Team Spirit. It was also the first time I encountered Gurkha troops and where I learned about the interesting knife they carry. They are extremely well respected. I dunno why I thought that was important. At the time that I was there (70's to 90's), the US civilian population also practiced a non-combatant evacuation (NEO) during the exercises. I am always shy to get political, but given the planning and history of US forces overseas, I will say that I am left a bit confused about the breakdown of events during the Afghanistan evacuation. I have never been there, though, so my perspective should be taken with a grain of salt.

The tree was sentimental… I don’t remember where but I watched somewhere where they went to trim the trees so they could see the bridge that was crossing the DMZ… That’s why North Korea didn’t want the tree trimmed or chopped down so the US and SK could not see them
It was cut so they could get a better view from the building across (this was right at the border), NK soldiers saw that they were unarmed and demanded to stop cutting the tree, they refused and then the NK attacked, beating several and dragging one across the border to safely beat him in a nearby ditch while soldiers looked on, when his body was recovered he was essentially a pulp. The tree had no actual sentimental value, they just wanted an excuse to not let the SK and US forces have their way with the border
I know this comment is old and all but yeah, the North Koreans claimed (after the axe murder) that Kim Il-Sung himself planted the tree there, and under no circumstances could it EVER be cut or trimmed. The US and South Korea wanted it cut down because it blocked view of parts of the DMZ. There was some more dick waving between the murders and the actual operation to cut it down, but besides that the rest was spot on
Just incase any of you forgot the full list is: -140 American and South Korean Troops armed with Axe Handles,Pistols,M-16’s,Grenade Launchers,Vehicle-Mounted Chain Guns,And Chainsaws. -Commando’s with Claymores strapped to their chest’s. -Team of 64 South Korean Martial Artist’s trained in Taekwondo weilding clubs. -23 Vehicle Convoy Accompanied by a Tank. -20 Utility Helicopters. -7 Attack Helicopters. -B-52’s. -F-4’s. -F-5’s. -F-86’s. -F-111’s. -Carrier. -Nucleur Capable Bomber’s. -Full Infantry,Artillery,and Armor Divisions. *You don’t fuck with America.*
You know, I'd rather have better education, healthcare, functioning public transit, & roads that don't suck, but chopping down some tree on a different continent? That's probably a close second.
I've seen a photograph of the early days of the DMZ with a line of South Korean soldiers literally standing in the middle of a field facing a line of North Korean soldiers 10 feet away.
My brother was stationed at the dmz for a while. He said there were small scale boarder raids were they would take pot shots at each other happening off and on on both sides while he was there
I remember being stuck at the DMZ for training and you can hear the loud speakers non stop shouting propaganda, after awhile it turns into white noise.
Well, they also played martial music. But I clearly remember the strange change in crescendo as they swiveled the banks of loudspeakers around as they would occasionally play those eerie, religious-like choral pieces, dedicated no doubt to the Great Leader or Dear Leader -- the sounds would be wafting and waning. (The South Koreans tended to play pop music.) I remember being on top of G.P. Oullette, at night, with our NODs (AN/TAS-6s), observing the area around, and they were broadcasting some audience hall speech. I asked a KATUSA who was speaking (because it clearly wasn't Korean); and he said it was Ceaucescu, the Romanian dictator (who would later be killed in an army coup around 1989).
The amount of forces the they sent into cut down one tree is the amount of forces that the Canadian government assigns to logging companies to act as operational protection against the Sasquatches in the Canadian forests. It's a perfectly reasonable amount of protection.
It is not overspending. The US is the richest country so it has more money to spend. Also when looking at a countries spending you need to look at 2 measurements. Spending to gdp percentage and military spending out of government spending. The US spends 3.4% of its gdp on its military and 10% of its government spending on military. It teice as much on healthcare than its military. Its spending percentages are average when compared to the rest of the world. You must remember that the US just has a shitload of more money than everyone else. Also with this Ukraine war right now and the looming Taiwan war, i think were spending the right amount. Have a nice day.
I see your understanding of history comes from memes. Tell me, do you think war with China would have been a good thing? Because that's what that 'overspending' was there to prevent.
You should do a video on the Colombian troops sent to help in the Korean war, who were then abandoned and fought with just machetes. It's pretty interesting!!
One thing to take into account is that there was no formal peace treaty between the two Koreas so the Korean War has been going on for who knows how long by now
I was at the DMZ in 2000. Wild place. Staring at an isolated enemy that almost feels straight up alien, as they train their rifles on you, is bonkers. You know they probably aren't going to start an international incident to kill you. Probably...
Also if anyone is interested in the 4 North Korean soldiers who got caught by South Korean lumber jacks, Vice has an interview with one of them! He’s a pastor now in South Korea if I remember correctly.

For a demilitarized area, there sure seems to be a lot of military operations happening in the area!
Your military needs to make sure that the enemy is holding to the Demilitarisation
Some call it the designated military zone, both are technically right.

Can I just say that it's really weird that the DMZ, *Demilitarized* Zone, is one of the most heavily militarized pieces of land on the planet?
It was renamed, now it's called
Da Militarized Zone
Actually, it just got renamed to the Re-Da-Re-De Militarized Zone.
I think all the military stuff is just outside the zone itself?
yeah. Also Iceland is green, Greenland is icy, French Fries were invented in Belgium, and Belgian waffles were invented in Germany. Naming conventions are weird
I think the Korean DMZ is the most militarised zone in the world where there hasn't been ongoing conflict. I am probably mistaken tho
As an arborist who takes trees down for a living I can confirm that they needed at lest 6 more tanks to take down that tree properly
you know the muricans. they never do things properly.

I was at the DMZ in 2000. Wild place. Staring at an isolated enemy that almost feels straight up alien, as they train their rifles on you, is bonkers.
You know they probably aren't going to start an international incident to kill you. Probably...
For a place called the demilitarized zone there sure are a lot of military there.
More vids pls these are insanely good
Also if anyone is interested in the 4 North Korean soldiers who got caught by South Korean lumber jacks, Vice has an interview with one of them! He’s a pastor now in South Korea if I remember correctly.
That poor tree was innocent in all of this, yet had an entire nation attend its execution.
Operation Paul Bunyan is the reason I love our disgustingly bloated military budget.
North Korea: Can't even give its soldiers guns to murder two noncombatants.
USA + SK: Would you like nukes with that?
Honestly it is funny.
