This new Chinese military recruiting video is insane

U.S. military recruiters take note: It's time to up your game.

The Chinese People's Liberation Army has released a new recruiting video geared toward young people that beats anything the U.S. military has to offer.

The PLA video moves at the pace of a "Fast and Furious" movie and shows off all the Chinese military's equipment in a pageantry of death machines.Eagle-eyed readers also spotted what looks like a U.S. F-16 at the very end of the video. Presumably, the People's Liberation Army Air Force does not have Vipers.

Not since the days of "Be All That You Can Be" and Marines fighting lava monsters have U.S. recruiting commercials been nearly this awesome.
