North Korea is intensifying their development of nuclear weapons. Their most recent activities and missile tests have presented an enormous threat to all other countries. Now, it seems that their activities could be a threat to the entire planet. The reason why their tests are a threat to the planet is that their most recent test was so incredibly powerful that it actually moved the Earth's crust.
North Korea's Recent Nuclear Tests Caused Aftershocks That Have Moved The Earth's Crust
#1
The nuclear test that we are talking about here happened back in September. North Korean officials confirmed that they tested an H-bomb under a mountain at Punggye-Ri. This particular bomb is ten times more powerful than the bomb dropped during WWII on Hiroshima.

"When you have a large nuclear test, it moves the Earth’s crust around the area, and it takes a while for it to fully subside. We’ve had a few of them since the sixth nuclear test," an American geological survey official said.

Just this past week, two minor tremors have been detected from the mountain test site. The registered a magnitude 2.4 and 2.9 and were likely aftershocks caused by the sixth test back in September.

There is plenty of concern that this test has caused damage to the underground mountain testing site. Rumors spread that close to 100 workers have been trapped in that location despite the fact that there is evidence that two new test tunnels have recently been created. There is now widespread fear that Kim Jong-un has plans to test his nuclear weapons while above ground, especially after Donald Trump, threatened to "totally destroy" North Korea if it threatens the United States.

Geographically, there is concern involving a nearby volcano that is active. Since the testing started, there have been several earthquakes coming from Punggye-Ri, and the fear is that these earthquakes will cause Mount Paektu to erupt.

The volcano is a sacred location to the people of North Korea and is prominently found in Korean folklore. The media reported that several military members, along with Kim Jong-un climbed to the top of the volcano in order to "emphasize his military vision." Kim Jong-un not only climbed this 9,000-foot structure without using any special gear, but he also did it while wearing leather dress shoes. Sounds sane, right?

Even though Mount Paektu has not erupted since 1903, it is believed that the close proximity of the nuclear testing could cause an eruption. Fun fact: Kim Jong-un claims that his grandfather, North Korea's first dictator Kim Il-Sung, was born at the site of this volcano, But, there is contradictory evidence that states he may have been born in the Soviet Union.

So, we know that North Korea is sending vibrations that are affecting the Earth's crust, but South Korea is known to be sending out vibrations of their own. South Korea blasts sound vibrations from the world's popular songs through these high powered speakers.

In this video, you can hear 'We Are the Champions' being played over propaganda speakers that are made to carry sound over extremely long distances.
