Watch the Chinese Air Force bombing the Yellow River to destroy its ice

The Yellow River has been completely frozen for weeks. China’s flood prevention authority decided that, before the snow melts and a huge clusterfuck ensues, they should destroy de ice and make it flow again. So they said: “Let’s ask the air force to bomb it because—fun!”

China’s Air Force sent a few airplanes loaded with heavy bombs, dropped 24, and destroyed that ice. Vini, vidi, go to hell, river. What’s a few dead fish and even more pollution in a river that is already breeding mutant animals to begin with? Right? RIGHT? Right. The Yellow River is now flowing again. Carry on.
