The Flower

[@chaospuppy6730]

I especially loved the part where some didn't partake and weren't pressured to partake. Like, you don't have to smoke marijuana if you don't want to, so don't ruin the fun for others just 'cause you don't think they should either.

[@damnthatmashlookstasty]

This video should win an award.

[@genesismoreno5136]

Absolutely loved when the Flower was legal that there were people that smelled the flower and people who didn't and they both coexisted, happily.

[@TMANOG2000]

Well done AUSTRALIA!!! I been passing on this clip to serious advocates in favour of decriminalising and making at the very least medicinal marijuana and cannabinoids available for therapeutic purposes. Amendments to the Narcotics Act have been made!!! WOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!! Keep going we're finally getting somewhere...

[@jonjones5152]

That's very good news.

[@oldoli]

Simply the most accurate video that was ever created.

[@thehighscore420]

Such a fantastic animation! Brilliant representation of our society in the second half, It's time to legalise!

[@wongb316]

I watch this video everyday. Cracks me up at how accurate this is.

[@HeribertoZamoraJr7246408]

This was very creative

[@cynthialopez7684]

Cool

[@Mr2crazyz]

Luckily more and more countries are legalizing weed, so soon we will maybe live in that utopia that was depicted at the beginging!

[@Tracydot3]

This is an amazing animation with a great message. One of the best videos I've seen on youtube. Thank you so much for making this!

[@keensweep]

Powerful vid!

[@Ariakas7708]

I love this. One of the strongest points to me was at the beginning when the flower was being passed around, and one guy just simply says "no thanks". The only constructive criticism I have would be a little more emphasis on the brainwashing done after the "anslinger type character" swooped down on it. The anti weed propagand campaigns are killin us. Thats a nitpick tho, this is the best piece Ive seen in a while. All respect to the rtist/artists

[@lankyfranki3]

It’s painful to see nothings progressed in America on weed laws except in a few states

[@wannabecarguy]

Suicide has been an epidemic for many years now. We were told that legalizing weed was the answer. The people who promoted this idea are silent. It's a failed idea.

[@kennylux]

In Russia it's treated like heroine and other deadly drugs, people who smoke MJ are considered dirty junkies and are treated like criminals. So appreciate what you have bro :) Also an awful lot of people here really thinks it's a "deadly" drug, which "causes" strong addiction, withdrawal syndromes and even death. It's so sad.

[@mazda3s04]

just wanted to say, as an artist and someone who appreciates unique ways of delivering a message (and I happen not to be a pot smoker) this animation is really cool. Great work- powerful without overtly hitting me over the head with what you are really getting at. Certainly makes your point. I say, smoke on my friend, smoke on.

[@yanushevitz5588]

It's sad to see that famous influencers make more views in one day than this video through 11 years

[@OpenMind3000]

Spitzenmäßig

[@emorgewalt5461]

OPEN MIND mir war fast klar einen Kommentar von dir hier zu finden :)

[@WilliamHowe5thViscountHowe]

I hope they legalize it so the government can give me choices on how strong I want my weed to be.. shit nowadays is too goddamn strong

[@finalfantasy8VIII]

Fantastic animation.. really gives me hope that decriminalization/legalization will come soon :)

[@RAPHAEL111-q5r]

Maconheiro safado

[@torinkyifh5085]

Dude this flower video just popped into my head the other day. I analysed it for a project in Junior High. I still feel strongly that this video is great!

[@DinoPwn]

Looking back on old videos in my favorites list. I actually used this in a college presentation on why we should legalize cannabis lol

[@Apricoffee]

0 to 100 real quick

[@captainclayman]

I'm all for legalization but this is totally simplified and basically propaganda. Propaganda that is promoting something I agree with, but still propaganda. Don't use these types of tactics to promote legalization, you don't need to manipulate or lie to persuade people, that's what the anti-pot side has to do.

[@thechatpal91]

It's not lying, just shush.

[@zonegaming3498]

First of all It is explaining how prohibition works, It doesn't it actually~ its pretty accurate to the history of pot. Pot was once used by our founding fathers and was used medically then we banned it and it created these mafia type gangs that cause more violence and putting non violent offenders in jail. This is not propaganda there is no lies being told here.

[@zavierrsucks]

Propaganda is a form of communication aimed towards influencing the attitude of the community toward some cause or position by presenting only one side of an argument. (Definition from wiki, because, we all know its a lot more vague than you make it out to be). Propaganda is used to influence pretty much anyone on every subject, there's really no other way, some people will just think a certain way, others need to be persuaded, its how politics works.

[@19blitzer]

Where is the manipulation or lying?

[@chrystianshayne]

Propaganda is simply the establishing of understanding between an individual and a group. Meaning school teachers are basically propagandists. The only reason propaganda has negative connotations is because of the Nazis infamous use of it to create hatred and fear. Propaganda was just a book, written by Edward Bernays in 1928. It is neither good nor bad. It is simply a communication method. Besides, in my opinion, if the media's allowed to put fucked up bullshit like the encouragement of war and army indoctrination then this is next to nothing.

[@hpjuana]

648 DRUG DEALERS NOT LIKE.

[@RigOwnsUAll]

used this video for my final exam as an intruduction for my topic "cannabis" as a speech it fits perfecty.. after my speechthe lecturer was pro legalize it before he was against props and thx do you mate

[@pequenaceci]

Essa animação é muito boa! Muito bem feita e traz um cenário ainda presente no Brasil. Excesso de encarceramento pelo proibicionismo. Avancemos!

[@kizima08]

Let's make this video trend again!

[@reverendcoffinsotherson5807]

2022, and it is STILL federally illegal in the USA.

[@adambrowne01]

What a lovely oversimplification of a complex issue, i feel so much more informed now

[@joebarbaralulu]

Thank you for posting

[@tgod264]

Awesome vid I love how you guys are trying to package an old argument in a new way and hopefully will help to bring people who are anti marijuana to see some of the arguments behind this amazing plant

[@ATAdude666]

I remember when I first saw this cartoon over a decade ago, and it really spoke to the importance of this flower to me and humankind. It's kinda surreal to go back and watch this today, in 2024, in Virginia... Where "the flower" is available and free to grow... I can basically watch this video in reverse now... Let's keep pushing prohibition down! Expand homegrown rights!

[@ricogarion]

Superbly done. Don't allow prohibition in your life. You have a voice .

[@Hawokki]

I like it how all the sound effects were merged with the music :)

[@0zizoz]

this always gives me chills when I see it.

[@CDXLIV444]

This video can speak to people. Without ignorant assumptions, someone can see something for what it really is.

[@Reeces_Pieces]

This needs to be a commercial. It very accurately displays the current situation in America. Except what the flower looks like obviously.

[@mickmos]

Amazing video. Its so great that there is people in his world with the talent to make something like this.

[@Villanover]

Incredible, this animation masterfully explains without a word all the "marihuana chain of events"... But they should have explained a little bit all the things about the mafias topic... (The Marihuana traffic uses to be the "first/main" line of economic sustenance of many mafias. Regularizing marihuana also regularizes the cultivation, selling, etc... killing many mafias earning ways; which means their end (also of other activities such as prostitution, violence, HARMFUL drugs traffic...)

[@FunkForTheFunky]

Wow, this video was really well made. Cool how it touched on the prescription meds solving one problem and causing another!

[@SweetFurb22]

this plant really does have amazing benefits for humans & the earth in Asia this is also used for protecting crops in the villages & small towns of Asia it can also help you with weight loss, stress, heart conditions, vision, etc.

[@esko85]

Man...finally I see something that proposes!!! There is even a "good corporation and good government"...this is the proper way to argument, not with obsolete "down with the system" rhetoric...

[@3ternalvigilance262]

That was a really cool video, well done. Yes, we do need to end Marijuana prohibition. And the only reason you see states "legalizing" it is because those criminals need the tax revenue. Support your local farmers instead.

[@Halo75100]

Well done. Amazing, just simply perfect.

[@GrowLightSource]

Nicely done, it's simplicity tells the story pretty effectively. Nature provides, mankind destroys, stupidity reigns supreme. What could be a grand and peaceful world is ruled by greed and injustice! Peace!

[@Riddlemt]

I like this a lot! Great design and message, keep it up!

[@mino779]

shared! this clip should be a tv spot worldwide!

[@mecsansemotions]

cette petite vidéo est trop bien, elle explique très simplement où nous en sommes avec le cannabis.. bravo à celui qui l'a faite.

[@Braindestructor]

trust me, my focus is like 110% on weed, im aware of everything.. and the music sounds sooo goooooood

[@Jammey90]

Fantastic animation! The more publicity that the benefits of Marijuana can get, the faster we can return to a world where healthy and fun plants can grow like they should :)

[@GNParty]

This was very well made. 10/10 would watch again.

[@l3lackAssasin]

This is like the most inspirational video I have ever watched, it's all so true

[@lilschnowyguy]

I love how you depicted the alcohol at the end too, a lot of people supporting marijuana forget to mention that drug they allow us to have, the one that makes people anti-social and psychotic, the reason they don't mind this is because they want us to be psychotic to fight their wars! FIGHT THE POWER!

[@Rainbowtardiful]

Man, weed is amazing. I was out in my backyard smoking weed out of my bong staring at the blue sky and examined my surroundings, I love nature... and weed. I also laughed for like an hour. ahahaa

[@DaniboyBR2]

This video should have 7 billion views.

[@SittingBull4448]

This video brings it to the point! All opponents of legalization should see it !

[@JaSheen89]

This needs more views.. Why is nobody clicking on a nature video?? It looks like people prefer dirty acid rain, face masks, and corrupted governments..

[@TheJoegiboy34]

That was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen.

[@chalkiewithdots]

i think this video is a beautiful way to explain exactly the way i and thousands of other feel about marijuana laws.. i love this video and everything it represents. peace out

[@surealglass]

This should be the trailer to a full length movie. More in depth, with a story to go with the message. To give some realness and emotion.

[@FineHawaiianArt]

let us pool our resources and get this aired on TV during a superbowl event. the video could also use aspects of hemps use as an industrial fiber for making rope for making clothing for fuel for automobiles. the important thing is to recognize that it is the monopoly powers that want to keep the illegal prohibition happening.

[@chalkiewithdots]

i think this vvideo is a beautiful way to explain exactly the way i and thousands of other feel about marijuana laws.. i love this video and everything it represents. peace out

[@ActivistoftheLeft]

The end gave me a chill up my spine.

[@Flicky97]

Still one of my favorite videos...

[@MegaAwesomeman777]

You actually just proved my entire point in your first statement. You said that everything that is consumed in large scale can be harmful. Yet since marijuana is one of the most easisest substances to get addicted too you begin to start consuming it in a large scale, much faster, easierly, and its hard to get off of it.

[@EndureFocusEngageDie]

@InfiniteMomentStudio The 'cannabinoid' receptors are generally located around regions of the brain that influence memory thinking concentrating time perception coordinated movement and sensory perception, people have a different amount of these receptors which leads to that everyone's "trip" varies in terms of vividness, effects on health etc. People using marijuana will be at a suboptimal intellectual level, they will be 'slow' it will be harder to learn and their short-term memory will worsen

[@turkmerc4120]

Volumes is what this speaks. Volumes....

[@locomuyloco4]

gracias Uruguay espero que todo salga según lo planeado y puedan ser ejemplo para todo el mundo !!! the flower grows free!!

[@MCRmytara]

This is amazingly brilliant, it's so sad that we live in a world where marijuana is primarily illegal. It's time to end it. ✌☮

[@kfreddy2o2]

i'm so baked. that music was awesome and the vid was dank

[@SannaKse]

Holy crap what skilled amazing awesome people did this. I applaud you.

THIS IS THE MOST CREATIVE THING I'VE SEEN ALL FUCKING YEAR SO FAR.... BIG THUMBS UP! Wish I saw it earlier... At least someone gets it.... That's America in a nutshell. You can use this video to analogize just about anything going on today. BRILLIANT VIDEO LOVED IT>>>>>

[@samsam5886]

Have you tried it before? No impaired judgement, blurred vision, or loss of focus for me. My vision gets clearer, and I become hyper focused.

[@TangerineLightning]

It's depressing how accurate this is.

[@dallascat1983]

Outstanding work!

[@Katvanished]

ah yes. and yet that image of the world where everyone is addicted is any better than the one where they are being handed cigarettes? it's just that they're too high to care

[@calicheese23]

@persephonehadespluto It's not showing that the pill relieves pain by putting it in a different spot. It is showing that pills can cure the pain but often have side effects. Example ---> heart problems --> prescribed heart medication --> side effect of heart medication is high blood pressure --> so prescribe blood pressure medicine --> side effect of blood pressure medicine is allergies --> so take prescription allergy medicine --> ... you get the point

[@yamaha4759]

i'm a parent n my kid was having a severe asthma attack when he was 5 years old, i was smoking my dose 4 my chronic back pain, n saw my kid having a hard time breathing, i tried 2 blow smoke 2 his nose and asked him 2 inhale it.. after a few drags he was fine and back to playing, when the mother returns from getting his nebulizer for his attack, she asked me what did i do, and i told her.. from then on d asthma never came back..can u imagine? so yes i will defend it all i can from people like U!

[@Th3Raz96]

I love this animation soooo much. I just wish more people, other than (for the most part) only the people who use it, would see it like this. But there is one thing I've always had a hang up on about legalization.. If marijuana gets legalized, the government is going to try to control it, put taxes on it, mass produce it and spray pesticides on it. It just wouldn't be the same.. But on the other hand, they try to control it now and they obviously can't completely keep tabs on it, sooo. I dunno,

[@TheHairyNord]

I'm going to make tons of videos and blogs about ignorance, and use your comments and channel. You're providing me with years of materials. Thanks!

[@RoyalWruff]

wow, very nice! and very moving!

[@samsam5886]

Speaking of morals/values, which one(s) are you referring to? Just because something affects you doesn't mean it's bad or immoral. Many things we use on a daily basis affect us. Things we do for pleasure and our interests, also affect our mood/mind for the better. So are saying we all guilty of indulging in pleasure? What is a value and who defines it? Society? Government? Religion? How deep do you want to take it? I can keep going. You are just scratching the surface.

[@baptiste9597]

Une représentation parfaite et très clair de la position actuelle des "fleurs" dans la société. SATIVA POWER FRIENDS!!!

[@dudeoffdeath]

The most incredible story alive

[@Neceros]

You just killed all the flowers!

[@thatgirlrai]

@ProgressiveTeen This is very true. I've had major depression for two years and have been on and off so many medications that fucked me up so bad I seriously can't even count. Recently I started smoking pot every other day instead of every once and awhile and I seriously can say for once in a long while that I'm actually happy. I havn't had a suicidal thought in over a month. I'm thankful for it every day

[@dhoyt7141]

aside from what anyone feels about marijuana... this video is impressive!

[@kosherhamm]

Awesome. Great work.

[@trinados]

Fantastic video! Congrats!

[@snoogen73083]

This is perfect, people need to think

[@BoomTssPhace]

This is magnificent, i almost cried

[@badinfluence7]

Great to have a vision!

[@okjustmeagainok]

I absolutely love this :) thank you

[@kaseyyeah1]

It's the proper way to show it. Because it's true.

[@nagualbones]

the people that made the dislikes do not understand that is not about the "high", is not about recreational use, is about benefits for all mankind. Biodiesel, BioCars made with hemp fiber, shoes, paper, FOOD, etc.

[@everett9199]

This music rocks my world.

[@HoboJIm117]

THC and other cannabinoids are found in the flowering tops of the cannabis sativa or cannabis indica plants. So yes, marijuana is a flower.

[@hansstudi4431]

Awesome vid! Flower Power!

[@sepherafa]

I felt an uncontrolable feeling of sadness when I saw that last guy dying. I'm crying nonstop and I don't know why. I was completely happy until now. Fuck this society.

[@forgotaboutbre]

@Draffknk Yes! Exactly. I think the key here, is that very high up in the pharm industry a very few people understand that they cannot profit from something that can freely grow everywhere, and as an entrenched interest, they simply look the other way and pretend they don't notice cannabis. I'm not saying they're consciously making these "evil" decisions, they may be unconsciously blinding themselves simply because there's a part of them that has an entrenched interest in the way things are.

[@samsam5886]

I know the true nature of pot and I would love to have my kids use it after they turn 18.
