@The Truth of the Matter Another thing that’s destroying life is death. We’re all going to die eventually so everything including politics will be gone forever at some point. That’s why I think about politics when it matters, but not all day long regardless.
True but they don't know they're being dicks. They're doing the best they know how. Or to put it another way, part of what we are is not what we want to be.
well its not like they are evil assholes trying to take over everything, they just don't understand the "stop dividing" or "undergo apoptosis" messages, you can't really fault them for that.

Well, in high school one of my teachers told us that 25 years is the age when humans stop replacing cells at the same rate that they die, and therefore it's the year that we truly begin to age (and begin our journey towards death).
As a biochem prof, I teach the bio and chem of these ideas in my classes, but don't touch so much on the philosophical areas which are interesting. One area I wish the video had explored is the fuzzy distinction between a colony and individual. Some colonies of individuals (such a bees, ants, termites) exhibit properties of a single multicellular organism. In some organisms (sponges, slime molds) the distinction between colony and organism is even more blurry.
Well, sorry for yet again touching the metaphysical part of it; but - assuming we're a pattern - wouldn't the whole structure of the colony be a single living being? I mean, cells pretty much do the same, and are not considered individuals of their own. If a cell of yours died, would you be dead? Colonies just went bonkers with the idea.
I think the ant or bee colony still have their own individual needs, while our body is ,cells needs less than the ants. Idk if a particular cell wants more glucose but they seems like machine who require similar and each enzyme etc function is fixed. Cancer cell feels like how we might have come lol. Like they seem to have own consiouness, evading body's immune system etc.
@@alireardon6664 when starting out, a star is made up of light elements such as helium. As it ages, the gravity of the star forces the light elements inside it to fuse. Going up the periodic table up to iron. Then it dies. Stars are basically factories that convert elements into other elements. We are made of carbon, which comes from these star factories.
@@SZACULT personally i don't think this video and the informations in it give off a "dread" vibe. I think that being aware of stuff is good and makes me feel better
And not any star, the heavier elements that we are made up can only be created in the most massive stars. And even more, the heaviest of the elements can only be created when the corpses of two of the most massive stars collide.

it's been 32 years since I got stuck in the loop, I pressed a CGP gray video, and then I moved to a kurzgeasgt video from the CGP gray video, and then it was the same CGP cray video, I'm stuck in an eternal loop.
these videos are the best to watch while eating, like i can feel the food being chewed in my mouth, feel them going down my throat and give me feelings that i can't explain
I love watching this channel it always feeds my curiosity for the bigger picture. I know many ppl say these videos gives them existential dread but I love it cause it really puts into prespective how amazing just existence is and how easily we forget that getting caught up in minor details and the issues in society. It's nice to give your brain a break and enjoy being.
I feel the same way! These videos makes me feel a sense of comfort in a way and makes me forget about the problems i have in life. Learning and knowledge are a really great thing it makes me appreciative of my very existence and I'm happy as well that we were able to evolve into such amazing species starting right down from how we survived and become who we are in the present to how these survival mechanisms made us able to invent, create, and form new things that is able to further advance us in our life but these inventions are the very thing that is also harming our planet earth Sorry from my poor english, it isn't my first language and I'm still learning about it. I have a lot to learn.
David C. So...What about the fact the digestive system is digesting that food? And the question what is you is also important. Since if you consider your brain is not you it makes sure you remember how to eat food and don't try to shove it through your nose. lol
Undertale Addict That guy asked for it. (I smell him coming back for me D:) *Runs away* *While running away* and also your Skin cell might revolt any moment. (Kidding)
The fact that you and CGP Grey did two different videos connecting each other is crazy, when i saw the CGP Grey's version then the switch to you made me feel like god, same the other way around.
I first thought about it when I read about ship of Theseus. The closing statements resonated so well with those weeks and weeks of obsessing over this topic that I had.
I wold say it is your continued consciousness that is you. The rest is what makes it possible for you to be you like parts who make a full working car. But if you change to much to quickly you change, You are still you but not the same as before.
watching this after i forgot it existed, algothrim keeps giving me his videos lol, rewatching this one reminds of what i thought a while back, i think "you" or "me" isn't static, its a concept. an amalgamation of all the experiences that all of you go through. "you" would be the things you did, or are, in the perspective of everybody including yourself. this makes my brain hurt, i want to sleep now
I would like to point out that this comment is much deeper than it appears when you think about it. It is easier to deal with absolutes than it is to deal and properly work with foggy/hazy borders. It is also easier to be bad than it is to be good, and less comes from being good than from being bad on an individual scale.
I am not my body, I am my consciousness. My body is simply the tool with which my consciousness experiences, manipulates and moves through the world. You can replace every part of my body with something else, and I'd still be 'me', as long as I experience continuity of consciousness, and none of the replacements affect the thoughts that make up my consciousness.
Hm… large parts of body might affect how you think about yourself and how you experience the world, so a lot of your body affects (not effects) your thoughts.

it's been 32 years since I got stuck in the loop, I pressed a CGP gray video, and then I moved to a kurzgeasgt video from the CGP gray video, and then it was the same CGP cray video, I'm stuck in an eternal loop.
these videos are the best to watch while eating, like i can feel the food being chewed in my mouth, feel them going down my throat and give me feelings that i can't explain
I love watching this channel it always feeds my curiosity for the bigger picture. I know many ppl say these videos gives them existential dread but I love it cause it really puts into prespective how amazing just existence is and how easily we forget that getting caught up in minor details and the issues in society. It's nice to give your brain a break and enjoy being.
bet you didnt think someone would appreciate this comment 3 years later yet here I am
I feel the same way! These videos makes me feel a sense of comfort in a way and makes me forget about the problems i have in life. Learning and knowledge are a really great thing it makes me appreciative of my very existence and I'm happy as well that we were able to evolve into such amazing species starting right down from how we survived and become who we are in the present to how these survival mechanisms made us able to invent, create, and form new things that is able to further advance us in our life but these inventions are the very thing that is also harming our planet earth
Sorry from my poor english, it isn't my first language and I'm still learning about it. I have a lot to learn.

I imagined all of my cells turning into cancer cells and becoming immortal.Except.I wont become immortal.I would die!which is quite unfortunate.

David C. So...What about the fact the digestive system is digesting that food? And the question what is you is also important. Since if you consider your brain is not you it makes sure you remember how to eat food and don't try to shove it through your nose. lol
One of the only times i've made a joke and it turned into something like this (and to answer Red Sniper, basically i've let my skin cells exist)

Only Kurzgesagt can make you sad about Cancer dying lol
Suchti LMAO
When he said that I feel bad for cancer cells a bit lol.

I know right?
Remember, it has no conciousness it is just an object trying to stay alive at all costs.
2:22 "A part of you is dying constantly"
Everyone can relate
I've been dying for the last 17 years please help me
We been knew.
Nope
Dead inside 😂
The fact that you and CGP Grey did two different videos connecting each other is crazy, when i saw the CGP Grey's version then the switch to you made me feel like god, same the other way around.

Being healthy means that you’re dying at the slowest pace
fuck you
I first thought about it when I read about ship of Theseus. The closing statements resonated so well with those weeks and weeks of obsessing over this topic that I had.
This is rapidly becoming one of my favorite channels on UA-cam. This should be used in classrooms across the globe.
Agreed. I showed this to my science teacher and he was mighty impressed
4:46 is what, most of all, convinced me this channel was worth following.

Bitch you are in the wrong place to not have an existential crisis...
This video keeps me awake at night..

I love hearing more and more people talk about these heavy topics
Holy balls, both Kurzgesagt and CGP Grey posted!
You know it's intertwined?
i was so happy they both uploaded together
It's a collaboration c:
Yessss, a collaboration!
Cooles video aber der untertitel fehlt :(
I wold say it is your continued consciousness that is you. The rest is what makes it possible for you to be you like parts who make a full working car. But if you change to much to quickly you change, You are still you but not the same as before.
agreed
nice analogy. For instance, if you change the wheel of your car, it still remains your car
But do you then die every time you go to sleep, because the consciousness is not continuous anymore?
Actually, you have consciousness while asleep. The brain is still active during sleep but running significantly slower (Since the person is resting).
hey AnderZ
The more I learn about psychology, biology, and philosophy, the more love and compassion I feel for other living beings.
It goes both directions, depending on your interpretation.

AAAAAAAAAHH!!!!
Me to!
watching this after i forgot it existed, algothrim keeps giving me his videos lol, rewatching this one reminds of what i thought a while back, i think "you" or "me" isn't static, its a concept. an amalgamation of all the experiences that all of you go through. "you" would be the things you did, or are, in the perspective of everybody including yourself. this makes my brain hurt, i want to sleep now

Obi-Wan: *OnLy A sItH dEaLs In AbSoLuTeS.*
WAAHLY- LOU- YAH
I would like to point out that this comment is much deeper than it appears when you think about it. It is easier to deal with absolutes than it is to deal and properly work with foggy/hazy borders. It is also easier to be bad than it is to be good, and less comes from being good than from being bad on an individual scale.
I will do what I must
And thus by the transitive property of absolutes human brains are sith
@Umos *YES*
I am not my body, I am my consciousness. My body is simply the tool with which my consciousness experiences, manipulates and moves through the world. You can replace every part of my body with something else, and I'd still be 'me', as long as I experience continuity of consciousness, and none of the replacements affect the thoughts that make up my consciousness.
Have you seen the next video 'You are two'? It poses an interesting question on what your consciousness is.
Interesting perspective. May I recommend watching CGP Grays transporter problem video? ua-cam.com/video/nQHBAdShgYI/v-deo.html
Hm… large parts of body might affect how you think about yourself and how you experience the world, so a lot of your body affects (not effects) your thoughts.
Holy shit...
