We've all grown up watching the military exercises of the Chinese on TV. They march in perfect unison, seeming to move together as one. The precision, the attention to detail, the unwavering posture and failure to even momentarily slouch or slump has been a something to marvel at.

Well, seems that the Chinese have implemented their own special methods to obtain that look of precision and expertise.

Recently released photos display the barbaric methods used on the military police in order to insure proper stance at all times. The men are in danger of puncturing their necks with stick pins should they allow their heads to drop.

Officers of the People Paramilitary Police have been in extensive training in preparation for the Olympic ceremony being hosted in China. It is hoped their presence will ensure no visitor or resident steps out of line with the tough Communist regime.

In fact the biggest security effort the world has seen has been enlisted to patrol the Olympics.


At least 94,000 security staff will be deployed at Beijing in August, outnumbering the 10,500 athletes by nearly nine to one. The International Olympic Committee has said athletes should feel free to speak freely on their political beliefs, as long as they follow Olympic Charter rules.

Yea, right. And we all know how free the speech is in China, right?

I don't know about anyone else, but seeing these goons surrounding me at all times would have me sweatin' bullets. They seem like a source to be reckoned with in more ways than one.
