How one man escaped from a North Korean prison camp

Fascinating read. This extract is from "Escape from Camp 14".

Shin, the man who was born in a North Korean prison camp, tells his story about the terrible experiences he suffered all the way up to his escape. He is said to be the only one who has ever escaped, and you'll see how incredibly lucky he was to make it out alive.

reminds me of when I read the book

Scars and Stripes

it's amazing what some of these guys can endure, and suffer through, yet survive. I can't imagine the level of hell they experience.

Seriously. Guy basically sent his mother and brother to their execution and was ok with it. He actually thought they deserved to be killed. That's some hardcore conditioning right there. Not to mention the fact that they probably killed his father after he escaped. Its surreal and makes you think twice before bitching about petty shit like a poor cell phone signal.
