The "Wolf of Wall Street" Jordan Belfort said North Koreans should assassinate leader Kim Jong-un in the next few months, TMZ reported.
"They got to figure out a way to get his own people to take him out," Belfort said, as he made a shooting gun gesture. It's not clear who he means by "they," but his answer follows a reporter's question about invading the country.
Belfort called the North Korean dictator "out of his f****** mind," and said he turned down an offer last year to visit the country.
"I'm afraid I'll do something wrong without realizing it and they'll throw me in jail," Belfort, who spent 22 months in prison for fraud and money laundering, said. "Once in jail is enough."
