Watch The Chinese Air Force Bombing The Yellow River To Destroy Its Ice

The Yellow River has been completely frozen for weeks. So much that it doesn’t flow. China’s flood prevention authority decided that, before the snow melts and a huge clusterf*ck ensues, they should destroy the ice and make it flow again. So let’s ask the air force to bomb it because, fun!

China’s Air Force send a few bombers loaded with heavy bombs, dropped 24, and destroyed that ice. Vini, vidi, go to hell river. What’s a few dead fishes and even more pollution in a river — the second largest in Asia — that is already breeding mutant beings to begin with? Right? RIGHT? Right. The Yellow River is now flowing again. Carry on. [Thanks Matt Hardigree!]
