The North Korean regime is reportedly rewarding Olympic winners with refrigerators and new cars. The losers face the threat of labor camp existence.

Several of the athletes are thanking dictator Kim Jong Un for their success.
ABC Yahoo reported
North Korea’s Olympic athletes are thrilling their countrymen with surprising success in winning medals and they are attributing their success to their Dear Leader Kim Jong Un.
But others, including former North Korean athletes who have defected, suggest the success of the country’s small contingent of athletes at the games may be the result of a policy of training them from a very young age at specialized schools, backed up by rewards like cars and refrigerators for winners and the threat of labor camps for losers.
North Korea ranks 14th in the overall medal count, but fifth in terms of the number of gold medals with four.
The country won two golds in men’s weightlifting, one in women’s weightlifting and one in women’s judo. It also captured a bronze medal in women’s weightlifting.
The communist nation has 56 athletes competing in 11 sports. Its hopes for additional medals lie in boxing, wrestling, diving, table tennis, judo, and archery. The best Olympic result in the past was four gold medals and five bronzes in Barcelona 1992.
Joyful residents in North Korea gather to watch the games on huge outdoor screens and public places with television connection.
“After witnessing the gold medal at the Olympics, my heart is unutterably happy and my pride (in our nation) is growing,” an unidentified woman said on state television news.

“North Korean Athletes Thank Dictator for Gold Medal Success”
Translated from North Korean: “You didn’t achieve that. Somebody else made that happen.”

The losers will end up shackled to the walls of an underground nuclear test chamber.
‘Regarding North Korea’s next nuclear test, this much is certain: Iranian nuclear experts will observe the blast, as they have observed their proliferation partner’s previous provocations, and a number of North Koreans–prisoners slated for execution–will die in the underground explosion. They will be put into a portion of the newly excavated test tunnel that will be under special video surveillance in order for their final moments of agony to be viewable in real time by North Korea’s sadistic rulers, including the country’s 20-something Supreme Leader, Kim Jong-un.
The condemned list includes political prisoners and purged officials, according to Foreign Confidential™ analysts, who assert that Pyongyang has executed prisoners in each of its (Iranian observed) nuclear tests. Kim’s father, Dear Leader Kim Jong Il, who died last December, is believed to have delighted in witnessing the nuclear executions–live and on video.’
Again, Prisoners Will Perish in a N. Korean Nuclear Test
Why waste food on them in a slave camp when they can serve the Nork state with their final sacrifice, be punished for losing and provide amusement for the fat little Nork dictator as he watches the video and eats expensive chocolates.
