This just in: North Korea has landed a man on the Sun. 17-year-old Hung IlGong started his journey at 3am this morning, traveling alone, to reachour nearest star, a journey that took him just 4 hours.A North Korean central news anchorman said during a live broadcast: "Weare very delighted to announce a successful mission to put a man on thesun. North Korea has beaten every other country in the world to thesun. Hung Il Gong is a hero and deserves a hero's welcome when hereturns home later this evening".Hung is expected back onEarth in just a few hours time, where he will be greeted by his uncle,and supreme leader: Kim Jong-un. Hung traveled in the cover of darkness,as it would protect him from the harsh, and extreme temperatures of theSun. Hung will also be bringing back some sun spot samples for hisuncle, which I'm sure he will show off to the world in a short amount oftime.The North Korean centralnews agency is calling the 18-hour mission the "greatest humanachievement of our time" - and so they should, landing a man on the Sun,a trip that took 18 hours return, is quite the achievement, all thingsconsidered. I wonder if Dennis Rodman considered this a slam dunk forthe country.Read more at http://www.liveleak.com/view?i=4d4_1390845826#61VHwjdx7DDoqRgq.99

I know the actual story is fake, but did North Korea actually claim this?
