. Is anyone else like me, in that they want to visit a dangerous place? I don't mean flying but only in that you could go and be immune to backlash. My late mother visited East Germany when it still existed as a tourist. China isn't so scary now, even though I wouldn't want to live there either. Russia is a crapshoot. But the only place now, that I would AND would NOT visit would be North Korea. If I didn't have to worry about being arrested and dying over a stupid fucking poster, I would visit North Korea. Kinda like visiting a alligator or crocodile zoo.

Are you high?

Um no.

My mom literally visited East Germany when it still existed. I can only guess at the time that East Germany was desperate for money so they allowed family/tourists to come in for a tour.

Kinda like when you go to the zoo and you want to see a Cobra or rattlesnake but you don't want to hold them or get bitten by them.

I would visit North Korea if I wasn't afraid of dying. Just like I don't mind looking at a great white shark from a boat, but don't want to swim with them without a cage.

You'd have been better off to just say you are high.

Though I say it as shouldn’t, I consider myself a fairly well-travelled person. I honestly don’t think I’ve ever considered a ‘danger’ factor, though. 

But Brian, I don’t think you're serious about wanting to visit a dangerous place. You just said you want to visit places and be immune from danger. Wassup with that?

Thanks for stating the obvious.

Ultimately I will never visit North Korea in the same way I've only seen sharks in Aquariums. I am not interested in free diving without a cage.

If you go to a place where you’re immune from danger, then it isn’t a dangerous place.

Duh.

You should try rock-climbing it is the best sport in the world except for all the damn rock climbing.
