That must be why humans stop producing milk-digesting enzymes after weaning. Unless your ancestors actually depended on herding dairy animals, you're probably lactose-intolerant. That's why so many people get by eating little to no dairy at all. I guess they discovered there are other sources of calcium out there, but nobody bothered telling every "scientist or dietician [sic] ever".

So the majority of the world's population are lactose intolerant.

This has to be a first in North Korea. Someone is too fat. Would love to have been there the moment they fractured. Hope it hurt.

I think I remember this happening to other fat people. For Americans especially, this happens due to a combination of poor diet, muscle atrophy, and poor muscle memory.

My guess is, Kim doesn't use his legs much, which means his muscles don't support or make smooth the usage of his bones, meaning there's a lot more stress on the bones.

Another possibility is that he was wearing platform shoes and slipped, which was probably the straw that broke the camel's back.

You know what? I just realized Kim's name spelled backwards is Nu-Gnoj Mik.It sounds Martian.

My comparison:
Martian = Martin the Martian = M&M's = Chocolate = Switzerland = Swiss school Kim went to-
I figured it out!

I doubt they have much dairy in the NK diet, and lack of dairy=lack of calcium=brittle/weak bones.


You do realize he was recently busted for eating a shit-ton of cheese, right?

That's one of his favourite foods, alongside most everything else that is edible on Earth.

This is an unsubstantiated rumor made by a South Korean tabloid. Why does the western media treat every B.S. story made about North Korea as fact? I highly doubt Kim Jong-Un's inner circle are giving state secrets to crappy newspapers. All we know is that he is not feeling well, nothing more.

No. He's not. North Korea is a single-party democracy.

Also, I'm kinda offended by all these fat jokes. Why is it still alright to make fun of people for being overweight?

What does that have to do with his weight? I mean, I'll readily admit to bigotry towards the overweight but even I can't bring myself to such dickery. No matter who it is.
