This man is the only reason why I decided to study 5 years at the Stockholm University to become a teacher. "I'm not a politician, I'm a teacher." HERO

Så jävla ledsen just nu, den här dokumentären förändrade mig som människa i grunden till det bättre och jag blev direkt förälskad i honom som människa. R.I.P Hans Rosling

[@tziobrowski]

This guy deserves Nobel Price :) For what he has done as doctor and for educational impatct of his leactures.

If Obama could win that shitty prize, why the hell not

Absolutely wonderful that you bought the program and published it. I was sad when it disappeared from SVT's free section... and therefore overjoyed when I just now found it here. Thank you Hans and thank you Gapminder for your incredible work in educating people and crushing myths with science, statistics and... culture. :D

[@camilabarcelos2210]

I really admire and love this adorable person, thanks for all, Hans and family!

[@rodeiaj]

When I first saw Hans Rosling at his first TED conference I was absolutely amazed. I only wished I had more teachers like him when I was at university. Now at 52, I just can't miss one of is lectures here in YT. Thank you very much Hans Rosling!!

[@manolopapas]

A truly great man.

[@MegF142857]

Sure didn't expect that ending! Applause to Dr. Rosling for his good work! Thanks for posting this video and with the English sub-titling done so well.

[@panpiper]

I weep with joy that there are such people in the world.

[@Obtaineudaimonia]

It's very rare to find someone who can create something so educational and entertaining in equal measure. He was a great man.

[@lepetitchat123]

Yeah, the only way to feel better about your life is to compare yourself with those worse off 100-300 years ago. Way to go, Hans! I don't think most people know think things are better than 100 years ago, but it certainly doesn't mean things are good now, or going to get better in the future.

[@SATULAL]

RIP Hans Rosling. The very last part of this documentary is just inspiring!

[@mrashikhan19]

The best person and researcher i have seen 😍

[@alexandraleistner]

We need more Hans Roslings..

[@geriname7277]

It is so unfortunate that he had to die relatively young; he really wanted to become old to continue his work. Life is not fair!

[@dylanhoggyt]

"When your worldview differs so much from reality, facts are interesting" #31:29 Typical Hans understatement from an exceptionally inspirational man.

[@saemj]

THank you ver ymuch for this documentary on one great man. THere is hope as long as people like him are around.

[@hugstablebear]

a truly great human being!

[@speedygreenie]

I've known about Hans Rosling for a good 6 years at least. How am I only now being suggested this video?

[@stevefox646]

You are a Living Genius Han Rosling!!!

[@christinafidance340]

That rotary phone is KILLIN ME!!! I love Hans so much!!!

[@danaabdo6796]

He is amazing

[@Jo-Anne.Clarke]

Tk you for the English language subtitles. I enjoyed this documentary very much❣️

[@Cantabinexile]

A great loss especially at a time when alternative facts seem to be taking over.

[@AnkitRahate]

truly deserving a Nobel :-)

[@lepetitchat123]

He is soo horrible that I can't keep on watching for more than 3 minutes. How can this man be widely praised? Do we live in an anti-intelligence society?

[@Gracelumos]

Very good documentary. I recently discovered Hans' videos and I became a real fan of his work. And I have to say, that it is really interesting to see how long does it take to change people's perception ones they have a picture of something. If the data the people base their knowledge on is from 1950s and people still think that is the actual status, how long will it take for them to catch on what is now happening?

[@gk8239]

Det är super bra med honom att han förklara lätt fattat samtidigt väcker han upp ens tanken att det inte bara höger eller vänster, utväg kan vara vad som helst.

[@jesperek4310]

Made my day! Tack Hans! :D

[@TDOTEMPIRE]

yes, agreed, nobel prize!

[@LaizzezFaireEcon]

I always enjoyed Dr. Rosling's presentations and found his positivism compelling. However, numbers tell us many different stories. For example, Dr. Rosling's argument that the world poverty is decreasing, the issue is not on absolute numbers but on its distribution. Case in point, country X has GDP growth of $xxx but if the growth accrues only to 5% of its population the vicious cycle of poverty within a certain economic class persists. He also argued that HIV problem in Africa is not due to poverty [16:25], but he mentioned that "When you sell maize, you offer sexual favors to raise the price" and "sex is a bartering tool'. Aren't these symptoms of someone dealing with (relative) poverty who are more predisposed to this 'tool'? I am an advocate of the use of statistical data but I would caution its users to dig deeper and look beyond mere statistics alone as numbers can be interpreted in many different ways. Rest In Peace Dr. Rosling! I will miss your intellectual curiosity and contribution to global development.

[@lepetitchat123]

He contributed nothing but Pollyanaism in a world that needs more realism

[@c.laviniamulholland585]

@@lepetitchat123 Pollyanna dealt in unjustifiable optimism.Hand Rosling dealt in facts and was optimistic based on them with good reason i think! He never denied there were very real problems but didnt think they were reason to disregard the good developments, good news and achievments that are also real..He said it was possible and necessary to hold several ideas in mind at the same time.He was way ahead of his time imho.

[@livericsson1697]

Känns ruskigt tomt och jobbigt. En känner sig vilsen utan honom.

:( R.I.P [*]

Ah! I had to 'pause' adblock for chrome plugin to enable cc in english

[@dgimop]

The translation is definitely incorrect or incomplete in many parts. I hear him saying 'India', 'Bangladesh' at 28:44 but the translation doesn't show it.

[@kauigirl808]

@dilipjoym But you have to click the captions for subtitles :)

[@PatrikPersson660516]

Du är Bäst Hans helt enkelt BÄST!

[@BritishArrow]

I forgot captions was off and thought he was speaking english with an accent to heavy to understand.

[@ZombiePete1]

ARGH.... time to study Swedish. :^p At least that will help a bit at Ikea too.... heh

[@dicksss84]

Where's the english subtitles??? :(

[@sameerpatel105]

DAT WAS GOOD

[@BenKressel]

@dilipjoym Press "CC" on the frame.

[@Putaspellonyou]

fascintating film about a fascinating man, but does anyone else get the feeling the subtitles are shite?

[@johanarstrom8117]

Translation is good. Of course nuances gets lost as well as references in Sweden. But this is easy to fix ... learn Swedish:)

[@TheMonkeylized]

Whaaaaaaa...?

[@NecoPaz]

[@twincann0n]

@NegativeNick Religion has nothing to do with what Hans does and what he stands for. He impacts more lives on a daily basis than any figment of imagination can or does.

[@Jackies1979]

The HIV pandemic probably also has little to do with concurrency in the first place. Concurrency may be needed but it doesn't suffice for starting an epidemic given heterosexual transmission rates in Europeans or Asians: Sawers, Stillwagon. Concurrent partnerships do not explain the HIV epidemics in Africa: a systematic review of the evidence. J Int AIDS Soc 2010;13:34. Lurie, Rosenthal. Concurrent partnerships as a driver of the HIV epidemic in sub-Saharahn Africa? The evidence is limited. AIDS Behav 2010;14:17-24.

thank you for the articles

As a MAN I must request to all of you. Show the last clip to every woman you meet :D

[@wziqian]

"BULLSHIT" HA. Brilliant man :]

[@lazygamerz]

This guy is way too good to become a politician. So don't suggest him for leading any countries.

[@sweetride01]

@duartesb Of course the stats are true. That's not to say they're 100% accurate... but there are great difficulties in getting 100% accurate data for many of these measures. Study demography and you will find this out...

[@ZombiePete1]

Feel free to provide proof of this, and show exactly how he is "manipulating statistics". We will all wait. (but not expect you to do so, because we know as well as you do that you can't)

[@nicktheclicker]

Closed Caption (CC) is shit. Don't trust a word.
