    Hidden in the microverse all around you, there is a merciless war being fought by the true rulers of this planet, microorganisms. Amoebae, protists, bacteria, archaea and fungi compete for resources and space. And then there are the strange horrors that are viruses, hunting everyone else. Not even being alive, they are the tiniest, most abundant and deadliest beings on earth, killing trillions every day. Not interested in resources, only in living things to take over. Or so we thought.
    It turns out that there are giant viruses that blur the line between life and death - and other viruses hunting them.

      actually there is scp-439, the bone hive. But that is based on a earwig that enters your body and produces abnormal bone growth so you become a immobile living hive for them. They eat some of your organs but keep the rest alive and functioning so you provide heat, protection from outside and, sometimes, they use your digestive track to pre-process their food and make it into a nutrient rich slurry....

      Because classifying things is stupid at its core. I mean, it's very useful, but when you look at it every living thing is just a marginal variation from another one. All the marginal variations make complexity. So it appears that a flower is something completely different from a giraffe (and it is), so you can classify them. But considering time and numbers, it's all about marginal variations. We think at life like it's a mathematical discrete group, but it's more like a mathematical continuous group

    Best "viral" video i've found. The graphics were great for keeping my ADHD mind engaged and focused while he explained. I watched 2 other good videos on viruses and this one took it a step further. These are helping me understand viruses as part of an ecosystem rather than trying to memorize a bunch of facts, so i'll recall better during the exam. Also, he repeated each term several times during the explanation so i'll remember them better. Thank you!

So in a way, you guys gave me direction in my life

    It honestly sounds like the plot of some Sci-Fy movie/story. Its like Life wanted to be its own thing, so Nature gave it the ability to life. But at the same time, the Universe wanted everything to be the same, so it made viruses to make everything return to being very dead. At least, that's my take on viruses and cells.
    EDIT: Found this channel back in 2012, and have kept up with it since. I love your videos, and they never fail to make me want more. I love what yall do.
