Hans Rosling literally changed my worldview.

[@Silvia-gd6qi]

same for me

[@dvklaveren]

I'm shocked that I hadn't heard of this yet. Hans is one of my very few idols. It pains me greatly that he's passed away; he's a great communicator and he's been a great influence on my perspective and my participation in the political process. Rest in peace, sir. Thank you for leaving this world a better place than it was. At the very least, for me.

How he became such a good speaker? Enthusiasm. He believed so much in what he was talking about that the energy passed to the audience. You can't teach that, but you can see it when people engage in a topic they absolutely love. Hans loved educating. He will be missed.

[@EduardoGonzalez-qd4qu]

This world needs more people like him.

[@ColinMcNulty]

I'm very sorry to hear of the passing of Hans Rosling. His videos had a significant impact on my view of the world's population issues. I hope his family take solace in the fact that his was an amazing life, who had a real positive impact on the world. Something the vast majority of us can only dream of.

Thanks to Hans Rosling and his family.

[@Obtaineudaimonia]

A fitting tribute for a great man.

[@ronaldridge652]

So sad to hear this. I have been watching Hans Rosling's inspirational videos for some time. truly saddened about his passing. A really nice tribute from the Gates.

[@peterl1699]

you better live forever now Bill. Now one of my two idols are gone. i respect the work you and your wife does and im glad to see this trubute to Hans and his family

[@kirkland2228]

Nice little tribute! I was quite upset when I saw the headline about Hans Rosling's passing earlier this month. He was an inspiration to me and I followed his talks & presentations closely. His spirit lives on!

[@martingriffith4362]

Thanks to Mr. Rosling and also to the Gates for their good work around the globe.

[@HaranYakir]

In *memory*??? You mean he's *dead*???? Oh man, I really liked that guy. I hope I can be like him some day.

[@emekaume]

I came across Hans one night where I stumbled onto one of his videos. spent the next 3 hours watching several of his presentations. read one of the comments and found out that he was gone. looks like he done a lot of good work. A Master Presenter.

[@maltejedstrom9324]

It's crazy, in school we learned about him and watched him and I always like his work and speeches, later when he died i heard that one of my friends closest friends live just besides his son. It's just weird how the world can seem so small sometimes...

[@bernardsadowski9241]

What a fantastic man. I watched everything he produced!

[@bakeradam519]

These are the Heroes we want to celebrate

[@archiegarcia4059]

Thank you so much Professor. Your contrubution, your research your presentation , and your purpose brought a spark of great hope to our world. We will miss you profoundly... RIP.

[@SirAmicVarze]

Hans was a phenomenal person. RIP.

[@supriya55]

so sad to realize he passed away. what a great, inspiring man. lives on in my memory as a truth sayer, ultimate realist, compassionate person and non judgementalist. He will forever be one of the counsellors to my inner voice.

[@GH-sx6tk]

Terribly sad. Welling up with tears.

[@bittertea]

Inspirational and warms your heart.

[@rskbug]

Just found out about the sad news. It was a greatly enriching personally to see get a glimpse of your work from the presentations. May you attain the ultimate and your soul rest in peace.

[@magicforest71]

[@martfp88]

Mundus melior propter eum. A better world, thanks to him.

[@pyrrho314]

RIP ;( great man, I missed news of his death

[@ichi5925]

ハンス・ロスリングのプレゼンは絶対に見るべき価値がある。全ての日本人、世界中の人にとっての宝である。

[@Adam-fu6sr]

RIP :(

[@jaganathkdr7533]

shocked to hear he passed away but green Man indeed.

[@mdqmichel]

Gracias Hans por enseñar tus contenidos tan valiosos, asi como la forma de expresarlos. Gracias Melinda y Bill por ocuparse en ello. Hans dejo la ruta iniciada, ¿quien continuara con su tarea? Sus hijos hicieron muy buenos trabajos tambien. Queremos conocer mas y mejor para actuar en consecuencia.

[@loretbiget784]

RIP. He said he will visit India one more time. :(

[@sisforshayla]

I didn't even know he had died until I saw this video :(

[@rosemarybishop5776]

He was over optimistic and ignored reality (do humans have a right to all the world's resources? No. We are just one species in the web of life.

[@msluvan4634]

Rosling wanted the world to be healthy that's why he (was killed) died

[@cyberserk5614]

I have the same suspicion about him being killed but for other reasons. Good news and realistic solutions for problems are bad for people who capitalize on bad news and for snake oil salesmen.

[@VrobertsonBrennan]

He was my KZbin boyfriend. I am so sad. I loved his videos. Noooooo
