2024 saw over 60 elections worldwide, many of which were marked with controversy. It was undoubtedly a divisive year both within and along borders. The war in Ukraine is now in its third year. Syrian rebels toppled the Assad regime after years of fighting. South Korea erupted into chaos after the prime minister declared martial law and was subsequently impeached. In the United States, President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed VP Kamala Harris, who ultimately lost to Donald Trump.
Despite the tumultuous, seemingly never-ending wave of current events people still found escape and unity in the Olympics, Brat summer, and a rambunctious pygmy hippo.
2024 had much of the world voting for change. Onward, to 2025 where we will find out what it means.
Correction: At 4:16 we show the wrong clip of Pope Francis. Our clip shows him visiting Myanmar in 2017 - we meant to include a clip from his 2024 visit to Indonesia.

The start and the end of 2024 feel like different decades.

[@nickfenton2334]

NGL it kinda did, yeah

[@eldem7818]

Yeah, it did. The start felt like a year of chances, for climate justice, a new President in the US, a way to peace in Isreal and Ukraine, a new feeling of unison in the EU, but most of them were deeply disappointed. In the end, so to say in retrospective view, many chances were missed, many problems left unsolved, many different ways to solutions blocked. But there are many new chances, like the new situation in Syria, many problems solved, that we didn't think about, and many more days, months and years to come. Let's all be hopeful and do our best to let 2025 start like 2024, but end a little bit better. Every Person counts!

I can't speak for everyone, but unfortunately, many western people never heard of that even happening.

Honestly, for such a packed and massive year, this has no reason to be the shortest out of all of your year recaps. Everything here felt extremely fast-paced with no air to breathe for each event that has happened. What happened to events such as Diddy's arrest, BRICS, Marcellus Williams, Menedez brothers, India's doctor case, Truong My Lan, hurricane Helene, Eurovision, Francis Scott Key Bridge, USA Approves Bill To Ban TikTok, The "second Moon", Epstein Island List, Raisi's death, EDL Riots, Mr. Beast controversy, US Port strike, Telegram, and the political feud in the Philippines for example. You mention Palestine briefly, but how about martyrs like Aaron Bushnell and Hind Rajib (or even a mention of Macklemore's hit track or Jonathan Glazer's speech which was the most known moment within this 2024 Oscars) Internet phenomenons like Hawk Tuah (brainrot culture in general) and Jake Paul vs Mike Tyson were also pretty relevant. And for such monumental events like the election season and Olympics, you think that it would be much longer with how much has come out of it? I always look forward to your recaps because they always feel like they comprehend most of what happened this year, but this was kinda weak compared to the rest of your catalog.

a lot of stuff. this goofy video didnt cover most of it

[@NorthropFan1997]

Steps on how to make a true recap of the year 2024: 1. The videos length easily should be anywhere from 10 minutes to 1 hour long. 2. The video should include things from both left and right political parties, giving them the same amount of time in the video. 3. The video should include some spaceflight advancements, such as SpaceX's Starship completing a successful test-flight with the booster catch. 4. Focus more on the different kinds of wars throughout the world, not just specific ones. Things like Gaza and Ukraine as well as any others that happened or are still happening. 5. DO NOT MAKE THE YEAR RECAP WHEN IT'S STILL 5 DAYS FROM THE START OF THE NEW YEAR! You will have missed out on several important things, such as Jimmy Carter's death and other things. 6. Don't forget to include Trump's assassination attempt as that had a profound impact on U.S. politics. 7. Talk about the effects of Trump's election victory. The election outcome of the United States usually effects the rest of the world in many various ways. 8. Don't over-represent the LGBTQ or any woke media. In-fact, don't include any woke media at all unless if it is something that is worth mentioning (i.e. things that help shape the world into what it is.) 9. Mention more things about the school shootings. 10. Actually mention the whole mocking thing in relation to Christianity that occurred at the Olympics. 11. Put everything in chronological order so people could make sense of it, maybe even put a date somewhere on the screen that tells the viewers when something happened. 12. Don't you EVER use TikTok videos EVER again. This should only focus on things that help change the world and our future, not what some kid is saying on TikTok. 13. Most importantly: Don't center the whole video on the United States. Instead, center it on the entire world. It should be about the ENTIRE world, that includes 100+ countries, not just the good ol' USA. 14. And finally.. to top it all off... for a badass ending to the 2024 Year Recap, put the New York Ball Drop for 2025 in the video at the very end, which would top it all off and set the stage for the new year. If I have missed anything, don't hesitate to let me know in the replies and I will add it to the list!
