#old but I have to share in disbelief that I only discovered it now:

In 1970, a group of Japanese college kids fashioning themselves as #communist revolutionaries hijacked a plane with samurai swords to foment the overthrow of capitalist Japan, using the most half-baked plan ever, and managing to both magically succeed and fail at the same time. The story is WILD.

SPOILER: they make it to their new stronghold, Pyeongyang North Korea, but when they decided that they wanted to go back to Japan, guess what North Korea said?
