      This world is rapidly passing away and I hope that you repent and take time to change before all out disaster occurs! Belief in messiah alone is not enough to grant you salvation - Matthew 7:21-23, John 3:3, John 3:36 (ESV is the best translation for John 3:36) if you believed in Messiah you would be following His commands as best as you could. If you are not a follower of Messiah I would highly recommend becoming one. Call on the name of Jesus and pray for Him to intervene in your life - Revelation 3:20.
      Contemplate how the Roman Empire fulfilled the role of the beast from the sea in Revelation 13 over the course of 1260+ years. Revelation 17 confirms that the beast is in fact Rome. From this we can conclude that A) Jesus is the Son of God and can predict the future or make it happen, B) The world leaders/nations/governments etc have been conspiring together for the last 3000+ years going back to Babylon and before, C) History as we know it is fake. You don't really need to speculate once you start a relationship with God.
      Can't get a response from God? Fasting can help increase your perception and prayer can help initiate events. God will ignore you if your prayer does not align with His purpose (James 4:3) or if you are approaching Him when "unclean" (Isaiah 1:15, Isaiah 59:2, Micah 3:4). Stop eating food sacrificed to idols (McDonald's, Wendy's etc) stop glorifying yourself on social media or making other images of yourself (Second Commandment), stop gossiping about other people, stop watching obscene content etc. Have a blessed day!

    I went to my first Formula 1 race, and in the fan zone Red Bull has an actual Formula 1 car. Not just that, but we could make teams of 3 and they would let us change the front wheel and time our 'pit stop'. With real pit guns and everything. My team managed 5.3 seconds. It is really hard, and I'm the competitive sort. It was one of the best parts of the trip. I really felt a connection with the sport. Don't get me wrong, the drink is gross, but I love Red Bull.

    From someone who worked for Red Bull for 6 yrs, a lot of your facts in this video are fairly accurate. But the most major thing you left off is that - Red Bull owns Distribution companies which is what brings in the revenue that allows Red Bull Global to do all of those wild and crazy events. This causes a draw back for those who work for the Distribution Company however, those at Red Bull Global (Red Bull North America in the US) is that there is such a disconnect and the way employees are treated declined over the years as Red Bulls overall revenue increased - it turned into a greed for money at the employees expense. This has caused hundreds and maybe thousands of loyal employees who loved and supported the brand to transition to other brands and even industries where they were valued and compensated for their experience. Hopefully one day the Global team in Austria realizes what has happened and turns back the pages and supports their employees more.

I wore a pair back in the states and I would say 9 out of 10 people had no clue what the logo was back then. Fast forward now, and the logo is everywhere.

    I never paid attention to Red Bull until they created _Red Bull Wololo_. I was like: Why would a massive company like RB create and host a tournament for such a niche game like Age of Empires 2? But not only that, it was the BEST AoE2 tournament, with such a sleek and *professional* feel to it unlike any I'd seen before.

But the core brand, the energy drink that managed to beat the venerable British brand Lucozade to top spot when this was a neglected beverage niche, is likely to fade. Because now Red Bull is facing competitors with big money behind them, notably Monster (partly owned by Coca-Cola) and Rockstar (wholly owned by PepsiCo).
