There are summer camps and summer camps, it seems. Camp Okutta, somewhere in the Canadian wilds, is the best training camp outside a war zone, apparently, where you can toughen up your little darlings. Twinky-looking camp counselors give classes in grenade throwing, automatic weapon handling and land mine dodging (quite a handy skill if you’re thinking of playing frisbee with them in the near future.) And I know what your next question is going to be: Where can I sign the brats up?

I’m afraid you can’t, became Okutta doesn’t exist. It’s all a figment of charity War Child Canada’s imagination, who made the video to draw attention to the plight of the world’s child soldiers who do end up in war training camps. [Camp Okuttavia Neatorama]
