**North Korea Arrests Shipyard Officials After Naval Destroyer Launch Mishap: “It Was Supposed to Float, Not Flop!”**
In a shocking turn of events that has left the world scratching its head and North Korean officials scratching their backs, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea has arrested several shipyard officials following the disastrous launch of its latest naval destroyer, the *SSS Unbelievable*. Eyewitnesses reported that instead of gracefully gliding into the water, the vessel performed what can only be described as a “belly flop of epic proportions,” splashing water everywhere and leaving onlookers drenched and confused.
Kim Jong-un, the Supreme Leader and self-proclaimed naval expert, was reportedly “not amused” by the incident. “I told them to build a ship that would strike fear into the hearts of our enemies, not one that would make them laugh,” he said, while sipping a piña colada on a nearby beach. “Next time, I want a destroyer, not a floating bathtub!”
The shipyard officials, including the now-infamous Chief Engineer, Mr. Kim Woe-Not, were swiftly apprehended. “We thought we were building a destroyer, not a water park attraction,” he lamented, as he was led away in handcuffs. “I mean, who knew that using inflatable materials was a bad idea?”
In a bizarre twist, the North Korean government has announced plans to repurpose the *SSS Unbelievable* as a new tourist attraction, complete with water slides and a gift shop selling “I Survived the Belly Flop” t-shirts. “We’re just trying to make the best of a bad situation,” said a spokesperson, who wished to remain anonymous but was definitely not named Kim.
As the world watches with bated breath, one thing is clear: North Korea’s naval ambitions may be sinking faster than their latest destroyer. Stay tuned for updates on this watery debacle, and remember, folks, if you can’t float, at least make a splash!
