The most scary place in the world Increase Your PM Length

Simple question...

I'm thinking the DMZ. I have been having apocalyptic dreams lately

EDIT: The thing about North Korea/South Korea is that it has the potential to erupt into world war III. You have enough firepower there to make the peninsula a dust bowl, you have China (and that island place it wants to invade (the name has escaped me)), Japan, Russia and a not inconsiderable amount of US interests. Pretty big time bomb I think, but is the clock actually ticking?

I voted Somalia.

Not so much because of the violence and all, but for a caucasian like me, I think that is one of the places on Earth, where I'd be the least welcome.

Hey, those are all good places.. if you like soldering that is .

Anyway, my answer is the same with Asmodean, all are pretty hairy places but for me as a white guy, I think I'd be downed in Somalia so fast it wouldn't be even funny.

The junction at Fountainbridge can be pretty scary, especially when you're drunk.

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

But to be fair, in those places my white butt would be different from the most and there would be a chance of getting downed just the same in most of those places.
But I think my chances are better in the rest of the places. But no way I think Somalia is the scariest place in the world, or any of those.. I just have to think hmm..

You forgot South Africa (highest murder rate world wide, maybe at the moment topped by Iraq) and Rio de Janeiro (did you know that in the past decades more people died in slum shootings in Rio than in the Near East died during the whole 2 Intifadas?)

Suffering from ads?

Civilian Control Zone, its an area (I think on the SK side, dunno about NK), that's used as a military training place for UN troops. The whole civilian thing I think is designed as an historical irony.

I thought that was Sierra Leone? Although murder and civil war kinda blurs there, so maybe it's not easy to judge.
