Brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un

If you're of a particular age, the summer of 1989 holds special meaning for you. Specifically, you were almost certainly completely obsessed with Tim Burton's Batman starring Michael Keaton and Jack Nicholson. The film redefined superhero movies for a generation, was a relentless blockbuster at the box office, and kicked off a wave of Batmania that left no merchandising stone unturned well beyond that fateful summer.But at the heart of that film is Nicholson's stunning Joker performance. And one of the elements that makes it so memorable is how it marked the first time that the Joker was depicted in live action as a brilliant, but murderous chemist, just as he was in his very first comics appearance back in 1940. Joker spends the second half of the movie holding Gotham City hostage via “Smilex” a deadly nerve toxin that leaves its victims with a hideous post-mortem grin on their faces.These kinds of weaponized poisons are nothing new in the real world, but it's the specific combination of effects that Smilex creates that make it so notable. We're taking a look at the real world parallels, including some disturbingly high profile terrorist attacks that would have made the Joker proud. In the process, we also examine just how this movie's approach to live action superheroics (and supervillainy) changed everything on the big screen.Watch the latest episode of Does it Fly? right here or check it out on our YouTube page!SUGGESTED VIEWING Of course, you must watch Batman (1989). But here's a friendly reminder that we also covered one of Tim Burton's other great films, the original Beetlejuice, on an episode of Does it Fly? recently, and you should absolutely check it out right here.And while the rules of the Joker toxin as we discuss them in this episode apply specifically to this particular Batman movie it's been around in other media, too. Notably, a generally less lethal version made a few appearances on the classic Batman: The Animated Series, which is always worth a watch, especially now that gorgeous remastered versions are available on HBO Max. A few to consider that might scratch your Smilex-induced itch…“The Last Laugh” (S1E15) It's primarily laughing gas here, but you know what it's supposed to be.“Almost Got ‘Im” (S1E35)A case can be made that this is the best episode of the series, even though the Joker and his attendant poison only feature in one segment of it.“The Laughing Fish” (S1E46)Based on several classic issues of the comics (more on one of them down below) this is probably the closest you'll get to the lethality of the original toxin in animated form.FURTHER READING Do you want to delve a little deeper into the facts, concepts, and stories Hakeem and Tamara referenced in today's episode? Of course you do! VX Nerve AgentWe're bringing this up here in part because of the extraordinarily well-documented (and almost Joker-esque) assassination of Kim Jong-Nam in 2017. The murder was carried out using VX, a nerve agent and banned chemical weapon that is considered one of the most deadly and fast-acting out there. Let the CDC fill you in, because trust us, you want no part of this stuff.The Animal Kingdom and Joker Venom“There is no venomous animal on the planet that could do [everything the Joker Venom does]. Having said that, there are components of different animal venoms in the animal kingdom that could, in combination. My understanding of the Joker is that he's quite a smart chemist, so it would be possible to extract the components from those venoms and put them all together.”More on this subject from Professor Jamie Seymour can be found here.Now, about that “recipe” (do not do this)...You'd want a little venom from the box jellyfish, known as one of the deadliest marine animals. A pinch of cone snail venom. And perhaps a dash of the blue-ringed octopus' fatal defense mechanism.2001 Anthrax MailingsA somewhat Joker-esque crime that terrorized an entire nation involved the mailings of lab grown anthrax to high profile politicians and journalists in the autumn of 2001. No less than the FBI itself has a wealth of resources on this incredibly bizarre case.The Source MaterialFor those who want to dive a little deeper into the comics, there are two key stories to consider. Note that the idea of Joker injecting victims with a toxin that causes them to die smiling was introduced in his very first appearance, way back in Batman #1 (1940). But for much of the character's criminal career after that he was comparatively harmless…that is, until 1973's Batman #251 which brought back the idea of the Joker as a murderer with a penchant for unique chemistry, in a brilliant tale called “The Joker's Five-Way Revenge” by the legendary creative team of Dennis O'Neil and Neal Adams. This story, along with “The Laughing Fish” and “The Sign of the Joker” from Detective Comics #475-476 by Steve Englehart and Marshall Rogers also formed the basis of the similarly named Batman: The Animated Series episode above. Since then, well…it's been around a lot, but these are the two real historical keys for those who can't get enough!WANT MORE FROM DOES IT FLY?Shortly after the success of Batman, Disney tried to replicate it with The Rocketeer.

The assassination of Kim Jong-Nam, brother of North Korea's leader Kim Jong-Un, was an outrageously mind-boggling event. It unfolded like a script where a spy thriller and a candid-camera show intersected and somehow, incredibly, changed history. Prank comedy, particularly in East Asia, has solidified its place in entertainment by capitalizing on the universal appeal of humor and surprise. This unique genre thrives on the unexpected and transforms everyday situations into stages for unscripted comedy. Watching ordinary people caught in extraordinary setups is often hilarious—unless the "prank" turns into a meticulously planned murder, leaving the unsuspecting participant dead. In this case, the victim was no ordinary person but a potential leader of North Korea's Kim dynasty. His death during what seemed like a prank show was actually a political assassination.

This is the second part of our episode about assassinations! This episode turned out very leftism-centric, with Salem covering Trotsky and Mia going over the assassination of Kim Jong Nam. There is a healthy dose of history in this episode, not just of the assassinations themselves, but also of the important historical events leading up to the murders, so if you feel like you need a refresher on Soviet history, this episode is for you!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
This week on WDDD, Sarah brings us an exciting story that seems like it could only be a Hollywood movie. The former North Korean dictator, Kim Jong-il, had several possible heirs, but the first in line had a knack for infuriating his father. When he had the audacity to try to sneak his family into Disneyland Japan, it was the final straw. While some parents might seek a milder punishment, for the Supreme Leader, the only reasonable move was to arrange for his son's assassination. However, when his attempts failed, and he passed away, Kim Jong-nam thought he might be off the hook. Yet, his troublesome and unpredictable little brother was right there to pick up where his father had left off. Join us for this incredible tale of a long-game assassination plot that's almost too wild to believe.

The wild story of a college activist's high-stakes attempt to topple the North Korean regime and change the world. In the early 2000s, Adrian Hong was a soft-spoken Yale undergraduate looking for his place in the world. After reading a harrowing account of life inside North Korea, he realized he had found a cause so pressing that he was ready to devote his life to it. What began as a trip down the safe and well-worn path of organizing soon morphed into something more dangerous. Hong journeyed to China, outwitting Chinese security services as he helped ferry asylum-seeking North Korean escapees to safety. Meanwhile, Hong's secret organization, Cheollima Civil Defense (later renamed Free Joseon), began tracking the North Korean government's activities, and its volatile third-generation ruler, Kim Jong Un. Free Joseon targeted North Korean diplomats who might be persuaded to defect, while drawing up plans for a government-in-exile. After the shocking broad-daylight assassination in 2017 of Kim Jong Nam, the dictator's older brother, Hong, along with Marine veteran Christopher Ahn, helped ferry Nam's family to safety. Then Hong took the group a step further. He initiated a series of high-stakes direct actions, culminating in an armed raid at the North Korean embassy in Madrid-an act that would put Ahn behind bars and turn Hong into one of the world's most unlikely fugitives. In the tradition of Jon Krakauer's Into the Wild, The Rebel and the Kingdom is an exhilarating account of a man who turns his back on the status quo-to instead live boldly by his principles. Acclaimed journalist and bestselling author Bradley Hope - who broke numerous details of Hong's operations in The Wall Street Journal -now reveals the full contours of this remarkable story of idealism and insanity, hubris and heroism, all set within the secret battle for the future of the world's most mysterious and unsettling nation.

I servizi segreti nordcoreani vengono accusati di aver eliminato un possibile pretendente al potere.

Kim Jong-nam byl nejstarší syn bývalého severokorejského diktátora Kim Čong-ila. Byl dlouhou dobu považován za nástupce svého otce. Ovšem po incidentu v roce 2001 na japonském letišti, kde cestoval na falešný pas, jeho otec přehodnotil situaci a určil jako svého nového nástupce Kim Jong-una. Kim Jong-nam žil v exilu a příležitostně kritizoval systém a zpětně se zjistilo, že spolupracoval se CIA. Osudným mu byl 13. únor 2017. Na letišti v Kuala Lumpur mu byl vstříknutý nervový jed do obličeje.
The assassination of Kim Jong Nam, Kim Jong Un's older half-brother who was at one time believed to be in line to succeed their father, stands among the most shocking episodes of the current leader's decade in power — all the more so for the manner in which it was done.

Desde hace casi un mes, se ha conocido la noticia de comenzar el proceso legal de los responsables del asalto a la embajada de Corea del Norte en España y que se le acusa hasta 4 delitos realizados en 2019. Sin embargo, los responsables temen que si eso finalmente ocurriera, puede que el régimen norcoreano tomen acciones por su cuenta y que sea un siguiente episodio de lo que ocurrió con Kim Jong-Nam.

On the 13th of February 2017, two young women - believing that they were taking part in a bizarre Japanese game show - smeared baby oil across the face of a stranger at Kuala Lumpur Airport in Malaysia. The truth, however, was that there was no Japanese game show; the baby oil wasn't baby oil; and these two women had just unknowingly assassinated the estranged half-brother of North Korea's one and only, Supreme Leader, Kim Jong Un.

The nightmare these two women found themselves in was far from over. Throughout their lives, they had been exploited, by poverty, by sexism; and now the exploitation was coming from international politics. They were set up to take the fall for the people who actually planned this crime; and what followed as multiple nations got pulled into the ugly diplomatic aftermath had nothing to do with justice.They were imprisoned, cut off, their lives dangling in the balance. And even though the world almost completely denied them a role and a voice in deciding their fate; we wanted to tell this story in a way that kept these two human lives front and center.Listen To Learn More About: North Korean Assassination attempts The assassination of Kim Jong Un's older brother, Kim Jong NamThe women who murdered Kim Jong Nam, Sisti Aisyah and Doan Thi Huong VX Nerve Agent For Full Show Notes Visit mydarkpath.comMUSIC:Brenner by FallsStormy Night by Ian KeloskyNocturne by ElisionProwler by HillSystem Failure by Wicked Cinema102 F by Dario BenedettiPerfect Spades by Third Age

Two women entered Kuala Lumpur International Airport to film a prank show. Their target: an unassuming business traveler. The result: the assassination of the former heir apparent of the North Korean government. How did two aspiring actresses end up caught in the middle of the biggest diplomatic incidents of the decade?

There's a glitch in the matrix this week. One minute before recording Dani and Carly decided to focus on one story this week since Dani's case is complicated, fascinating, unbelievable, and we had never heard of it before this week! Do you about the assassination of Kim Jong Nam, the half brother of Kim Jong Un? Siti Aisyah and Doan Thi Huong smeared a chemical agent on Kim Jong Nam in broad daylight in an international airport. One hour later he was dead. The news called the women "female assassins" and "femme fatales", but Siti and Doan didn't know they killed Kim Jong Nam, they didn't even know who he was. They thought they were starring in a prank show. This story is the craziest one yet.

On the 13th of February 2017, the world witnessed the most high profile political assassination in decades when Kim Jong-nam was exposed to a deadly nerve agent known as VX in the centre of Kuala Lumpur International Airport. The two women who killed the exiled half-brother of Kim Jon-un, claimed they had been tricked and that they thought they were taking part in a Japanese YouTube prank show.We had the amazing opportunity to talk to Ryan White about the case and his new film Assassins, that follows the two legal teams who fought to save the two women (Siti Aisyah and Đoàn Thị Hươn) from Malaysia's mandatory death penalty for murder.The video version of this interview is available on Patreon for all $10+ Patrons and Assasins is out now on multiple platforms.For more information about our Patreon and to follow on social media please follow this link See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Ryan White, director of ‘Assassins’, joined Sean on the show.
The documentary “Assassins” investigates the bizarre 2017 plot to murder Kim Jong-Nam, the half brother to North Korea’s Supreme Leader. His killing was carried out in a Malaysian airport lobby by two young women who thought they were performing for a TV prank show. Official trailer:
Documentary filmmaker Ryan White (The Case Against 8, The Keepers) talks about his new film Assassins about the murder of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-Un's half brother Kim Jong-Nam. He recounts how Kim Jong-Nam was killed in broad daylight with the deadly VX nerve agent, questions the press’s sensational portrayal of two young Southeast Asian women as diabolical black widow assassins, and reveals that the truth of what happened is even more bizarre than anything that the media could make up. Ryan discusses his belief that the two women were unwitting pawns of North Korea’s Kim Jong-Un, explains why the dictator would want to murder his own brother in such a sensational manner, and shares how 8 North Korean agents, who were suspected of masterminding the plot, slipped right through the hands of Malaysian authorities. He recalls covering every moment of the very public show trial of the two accused murderers, what it was like to become so emotionally invested in the fate of two people he had never even met, and what kind of security precautions he had to take as he unravelled an international thriller involving one of the world’s most ruthless strongmen. Assassins is now showing in theaters and available on Video-on-Demand starting January 15. Follow Ryan White on Twitter at @RyanWhiteIV and at www.tripod-media.com.

Today on KIOS at the Movies , Joshua LaBure sits down with Patrick Kinney and Diana Martinez of Film Streams in Omaha to talk about a new documentary film that dives into the strange assassination of Kim Jong-Nam, Assassians . Assassins is a new documentary by filmmaker, Ryan White, examining the circumstances surrounding the murder of Kim Jong-nam, the older half brother of the North Korean Dictator, Kim Jong-un. The film takes a deep dives into the stranger than fiction story of two young women who believed they were part of a prank show, but really were used as pawns by North Korean operatives. Featuring interviews with a journalist covering the story, the defense attorney on the case and tons of archiva and CCTV footage, the filmmakers do an incredible job at providing much needed context beyond the headlines. This film pulls back the layers of this truly bizarre and convoluted assassination, that truly leaves you feeling deeply for the two women who’s lives were forever changed in
Director Ryan White joins us to discuss his documentary, ”Assassins,” in theaters and virtual cinemas on December 11. The film takes a deep dive into the plot behind the 2017 assassination of Kim Jong-un’s half-brother, Kim Jong-nam.
Kim Jong Nam, Halbbruder von Nordkoreas Diktator Kim Jong Un, starb nach einer Attacke mit dem Nervengift VX. Im Prozess gegen die mutmaßlichen Mörderinnen kam unfassbares ans Tageslicht, denn die Täterinnen wähnten sich angeblich in einer TV-Show.
(12/3/20) The confounding 2017 murder of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s brother Kim Jong Nam in a Malaysian airport sparked an international investigation at the heart of the new Ryan White documentary Assassins. The film focuses on on the two women on trial for the killing—one from rural Indonesia and the other from Vietnam. Who are they? Fierce assassins or pawns in a twisted game of cloak and dagger being played at the highest levels of government? Go beyond the headlines for a look behind one of the strangest political assassinations in modern history in this installment of Leonard Lopate at Large on WBAI.

-Venezuela has reached a point where over 90 percent its citizens have lost an average of about 20 pounds. As if we needed any more proof that socialism is bad...-Pat discusses his son's experiences in Finland and tells us that the place is not as awesome as liberals say it is. In fact, the society there has been so homogeneous for so long that racism is rife among the population amid the recent arrival of immigrants. -Stu likes produced diced to his liking. Most Americans feel the same way. Yet it costs us tons of money. Why do we keep letting stores save us a minute amount of labor for a massive uptick in cost?-Surveillance footage of the exact moment that Kim Jong Nam (the half- brother of North Korean supreme leader Kim Jong Un)was poisoned at an airport in Malaysia has been released.

While the Finnish people are great, according to Pat's son, they have not been very receptive to the recent surge of immigrants entering their previously homogeneous society.-Why do we allow grocery stores to charge us a ton of money for pre-sliced produce?

-John F. Kennedy Airport in New York had a monumental security breakdown as passengers walked straight through an unmanned TSA checkpoint. What do you do if you're one of those passengers? Do you tell an airport policeman about it, or do you just go on ahead and board your plane?-Pat has a motto. How did he get it? He got it from the 1970's hit song "Afternoon Delight". This begs the question, what exactly does this song refer to? Here's a hint: Jeffy did not know that it referred to a daytime sexual encounter...-Pat and Stu praise the work of an MSNBC reporter (yes, you read that right). Reporter Katy Tur was discussing relations with Russia with Rep. Francis Rooney (R-FL) when he brought up a discussion Barack Obama had with Vladimir Putin in 2012. Tur immediately ended the interview after saying "I don't know what you're referring to." Was her response appropriate? What about her follow up, in which she acknowledged the 2012 meeting and explained herself?-Nestle. Do they hate America, or are they smart business people? It's the latter.
