You will hurt yourself badly when you hit the ground.

And then you pick up your stuff.

What I survived
Becoming Mr James: Undercover Inside North Korea

Yeah, that was horrible.

What I survived
Becoming Mr James: Undercover Inside North Korea

But I learned so much else.

I learned to speak French as well.

What I survived
Becoming Mr James: Undercover Inside North Korea

No, no, no.

What I survived
Becoming Mr James: Undercover Inside North Korea

Luckily, I didn't.

What I survived

And I would call the guy I was getting it from.

What I survived
Becoming Mr James: Undercover Inside North Korea

He said, listen, if you buy a little bit more, you get it cheaper.

What I survived
Becoming Mr James: Undercover Inside North Korea

And in that way, my own stuff started to be free and I made a little bit more money.
