A peek inside Iraq's most notorious weapons market

The fun-loving Chinese journalists in this segment manage to out-VICE VICE. 侣行 On the Road is billed as “a homemade outdoor reality show” featuring an "extreme couple" who love adventure. The pair and their team got some great footage of an open-air weapons market in Sadr City.

It's not the sort of place that's friendly to news cameras. They used discreet bodycams.

The resulting report is very newsploitation, but hey, credit where it's due for getting it done.

Their intro video for the series is hilarious. I think they're a cute couple.
