Almost... but no death involved although a shortened life span could qualify and what about the neighbours?

Is this for real? I mean, do the Scouts really have a "merit badge for atomic energy"? I thought they did camping and knots and stuff.

Jama: Kim jong-il is about the right height to be a boy scout.

He has similarities to Mini-Me from Austin Powers.

And some similar aspirations as well...
