Daring Vlogger Films From Inside North Korea

March 22, 2017

An American YouTube star risked being at the center of an international  incident when he visited North Korea and audaciously filmed some of his  stay in the notoriously secretive country.

Known only as 'Vexxed,' the young man used a tourist visa to spend five days in North Korea last December.

The ill-advised adventure was fraught from the beginning as his camera  and computer aroused the suspicion of officials at the airport in  Pyongyang when he arrived.

Had they accused him of being a journalist sneaking into the country as a  tourist, Vexxed would have been in a world of trouble and likely  sitting in a prison somewhere in North Korea today.

Find out more about his remarkable adventure and see video of him tempting fate by irritating a tour guide at the Coast to Coast AM website.
