Watch North Korea's Kim Jong Un try to fly a plane

Well, sort of fly a plane.
North Korea leader Kim Jong Un appears to have a fair amount of help from his co-pilot in the video below, which was posted to a YouTube account that Time reports has featured other North Korean-focused news in the past.
The video sends us soaring into the skies with Kim, and we swoop along to a big-band soundtrack that feels like it was lifted straight from the propaganda films of the past. Judge for yourself just how much Kim is flying in the clip below. --Sarah Eberspacher
