Kim Jong-Il, North Korea's "Dear Leader" from 1997 through 2011, had some priceless gems, including:

He never once in his life needed to urinate or defecate

He wrote over 1,500 books for North Korea's universities

He could control the weather with his mind, making rain or shine as his mood suited

He learned to walk at the age of 3 weeks, and talk at the age of 8 weeks

And my favorite (this one is actually true)– Kim Jong-Il once kidnapped two South Korean film directors and forced them to remake a version of Godzilla in North Korea.
