Space Monkey - it's not a planet, it's our home. (Viral Video for World Wildlife Fund)

[originalamam]

Smart commercial.

[alexsir98]

wow 65 years later, and the camera man is still there?

[MrCatbuttgum]

Now, that is creative.

[DivyaPooh]

what song is playing in this video??

[SweBlond123]

@DivyaPooh Song for the Divine Mother of the Universe - Ben Lee

[itsabomberscope]

Bloody hell, buck rogers has aged!

[Caitlinl07]

Leo Burnett is the shit. 

[AQWorldsTaTaL]

too bad only 54 thousand people out of 6 billion saw this

[abriniasporelover]

aww how cute when he is reaching iwth his arms to earth

[c6gunner]

You can take guided tours through Chernobyl these days. The chimp could have caught a ride out on the tour bus.

Cute video, but I think the WWF propaganda is a little behind the times.

[trailernash]

@c6gunner propaganda? they do a lot of great work. Dumbass!!

[c6gunner]

@trailernash great work? they put out a lot of propaganda, dumbass.

[trailernash]

@c6gunner what propaganda?? What the fuck are you talking about?? are you one of these armchair critics who goes on youtube just to make stupid comments with no evidence to back it up? get a life douche bag!!

[c6gunner]

@trailernash propaganda like this video. Duh. What are you, retarded? If I type more slowly, will that help you understand?

[trailernash]

@c6gunner do you even know what propaganda is??? here let me help you understand "Propaganda is a form of communication that is aimed at influencing the attitude of a community toward some cause or position so as to benefit oneself." how exactly does this video aim to influence anyone's attitude and what benefit do you think they will get from doing so? if anyone is using propaganda it's the oil companies! obviously it's working because idiots like you believe that there's no climate change!!

[c6gunner]

@trailernash

You CAN'T be serious.

You'd have to be retarded not to realize that the whole purpose of this video is to convince people that nuclear power is EEEEEVIL, and get the to donate funds to the WWF. That is the very definition of propaganda. Are you stupid, or just wilfully blind? I'm guessing the former because - really - what kind of a moron talks about "oil company propaganda" in the comments of a video about nuclear power? Pull your head out of your ass and watch the damn video.

[Veneon18]

But chimps' life span are about 60 years. He must have survived more den 65 years. D: Space has the ability to increase lifespan. lmao

[fahbita]

debo aceptar q lo amé!! esta bello!! aww

[dinghow100]

[StarFR0STx]

[cristianbadboy1]

[slipkmanolo]

[DaBennoCode]

Wow! That was some amazing stuff right there! Certainly puts the message across IMO...

[amclartyfrancis2k9]

2:07 Arnold Schwazenegger? lol

[diejordison]

its our home...take the earth like your home

[tehBLAX]

he landed in the mission in call of duty 4 near the ferris wheel LOL

[spasemonkey05]

@tehBLAX DEAD RIGHT L.O.L

[HighRoad001]

reminds me of No Surprises music video.

[Pipehitting]

This is retarded. What does it have to do with the WWF. Its a music video with the last few seconds on earth in Chernobyl. Looked cool but no emotional value at all.

[sjo1jcl]

I'm all for respecting our environment - and I do. But the fact is, the planet will kill us before we can kill it. It's much more powerful than we will ever be.

[123Lacorocks]

@FangedRabbit go back to 4chan TROLL!!!

[Pipehitting]

@123Lacorocks You are just angry cause he is right

[123Lacorocks]

the scene he lands in was shown in COD 4

[DoctorDreh1988]

good things come to an end.... make a change, help our planet!

all togheter we can do the diference.

[joeypigottsandiego]

wow so sad :,,,,(

[ap3t88]

someday,i'll be a good man. T_T

[machadomas]

OMFG! BEAUTIFUL!

[halfmute]

FUCKING UNREAL!!

[stomcode]

@halfmute duh....

[africah]

aint bullshitin you.the video made me cry!!!we are so evil with this beautiful planet gave it to us by the Creator inself,GOD

[woodywefc]

Chimpanze that! Monkey news

[AisforAd4m]

the chimp reminds me of seth green

[datboymark77489]

Captain Simian just texted Captain Planet at the end when he looks down. "Captain Planet I need a little backup bro!"

[tehBLAX]

he landed in cod 4 at the end. near the ferris wheel

[magog1138]

I'm an atheist. I don't believe in spirituality. The Gaia Hypothesis is about as close to spiritual as I get. The earth is a complex biosphere, in constant homeostasis. The idea that it could be a living organism in itself is plausible. That said, I find it odd how the old religions both Abrahamic & non-Abrahamic are very paternal, & await armageddon for a better after-life, but the Gaia Hypothesis is about caring for our home, and offering hope for THIS life & future, on this world & others.

[eduarda270594]

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT

[Ghost77178]

It is what titles him the music, she is great !!

[4turrold5]

Visions of the future unfortunately. "Ye shall reap what ye sew." We are sewing some very bad things in the world. What are we going to reap?

[thewonderblog]

This video is awesome. Its sad, has a monkey in it, and space to!

[daroinsane]

yeah yeah! that's our future, as race! we are just waiting, like nothing is happening! but in the end the earth is gonna kill us, and tha's right, it's very fair i think, the sad part is that innocent beens are paying for our nature: killers

[Huskeyyyyy]

Why doesn't this video have a million+ views, the fuck is wrong with the YouTube community?! If it isn't a frickin' cat/funny baby then it doesn't get the views and ratings it deserves; fuck this site.

[madlysuspicious]

Moving, Lovely, Scary, Cute ....beautiful, I love it! <3

[rajdeepakdas]

good stuff....

[Butling77]

Poignant.

[gritelement]

A powerful message and reminder. We live on a planet with finite resources, we use them like they are infinite and close our eyes to the damage we are wreaking on mother nature. But she is much more powerful than we ever will be ... we need to stop being so greedy and start respecting our home.

[StirpeRomana]

beautiful

[rugbyleagueplaya]

im not a big environmentalist but this video is one of the sadest things ive seen. whoever made it deserves an award

[zharrok]

Well my fellow humans, ¿are you ready for the destruction?

[stemonator1]

@zharrok Yes, after all, its the Earth Cycle of Life.

[zharrok]

@stemonator1 but we should stay together right?

[stemonator1]

@zharrok It depends how us humans take it. Some think that it's the new era of life, by destroying the humans, to save the Earth, us humans is destroying Earth. Some think that its the worst thing that can happen to mankind, to be wiped out. When its actually a good thing.

[zharrok]

@stemonator1 I love the planet it is our home, our only home in this vast galaxy, but at the same time we are a part of the chain of owr own destruction, today i am saying this to you and tomorrow i´ll be riding my car to school or job i still will be using petroleum products, we are the killers of the planet and i feel guilty for it but, i don´t want to die knowing that the planet is going to be Human-Free, because we are the only creatures capable of using Thought to fluorish as a specie.

[stemonator1]

@zharrok Why dont you want to die knowing the Earth will be human-free?

[zharrok]

@stemonator1 @stemonator1 Because we have evolved through out the beggining of us as a specie Phisically and Mentally our brains are capable of adapting to any Ecosystem and that is something that few animals are able to do, anyway we have achieved many many things, but we have other things that violates our logic and reason, that is why i don´t want our own race to disappear in the near future there are ao many planets waiting to be discovered.

[stemonator1]

@zharrok We wont be wiped out. We are descendants of a Great Race, that Great Race spreaded out into the cosmos. just us descendants will be wiped off the Earth, or as they predicted, Mars.

[ZillasElite]

@zharrok As I see it, there are two possible futures ahead of us.

We begin working together and actually spread out to the stars creating an ever growing race that will go on till possibly the end of time. (or if they are wrong and space actually does END...then the end of space)

OR

We continue at the pace we are going and end up blowing ourselves off the map or dying of our own smug air.

(Which one sounds more plausible? I honestly don't know anymore)

[unilingual]

um, what exactly did he eat and drink the 65 years he spent in space?

[JawnMercernary]

love the song

[seull]

megaaaaaaaaaaa megaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa !!!!!!!!!

[gamefanatic1131]

[CySlowdown]

[UsherCupcake]

Im sorry monkey, that i farted which caused the human and all animal race to die. But sometimes, u gotta let one rip, and i was keeping one sinse i was two, and i am now a couple of hundreads years old

[eusousuperior]

how come there are 2 motherfuckers that disliked it?

[MsSumai]

@eusousuperior : Surely the chimpanzee looks better than them. Just jealous guys!

[JoshRomney]

@eusousuperior, lol u sound like a beloved human-being who like mankind very much.... take it easy boy.

[elveterano]

Mierda que bueno está, cogratulations dont kill the earth motherfuckers

[mikefmale]

otherwise they just sit on their arses while the world goes to shit around them. What are you doing about the way we treat our home or are you one of the deluded deniers who cling feebly to their moronic arguments because its the only way they can draw comfort from knowing deep down that the world is in trouble and they are too afraid to admit it?

[lotfip]

When a supposed animal welfare organisation doesn't know the difference between an ape and a monkey then you know politics and scaremongering is more of a priority than animal protection.

And can the song be anymore derivative?!?!

[mikefmale]

@lotfip I suppose you reasoning that the concluding scene is logical given the accepted propositions that lead up to it? That's usually how most stories go. Or do you mean the song itself? If so then you are asserting that the song was written with this video clip in mind. Ben Lee wrote it and then approached Todd Samson stating only that he wanted something more than just another film clip. Samson came up with the idea and then took it to WWF. btw, sometimes people need to be scared into action

[lotfip]

@mikefmale Focus on real wildlife issues - tiger extinction, ivory trade, etc. Or even human issues such as poverty. There are a billion people without electricity/clean water. Earth has had 4 ice ages. It coped ok with the 0.75 degree increase last century and will cope fine with the current cooling this century. Better still, go to places like Iceland or Canada in winter and see for yourself. They are some of the most amazing places I have ever seen. Hmm, that song is growing on me now.

[grayshorts]

@lotfip You know what is derivative? People using the word "derivative" to describe music.

[frytechnician]

Just give him a banana, he'll be fine.

[streetsoul1977]

Love it!

[Tchetcherry]

What's the song?

[jakethemus74]

@Tchetcherry "song for the divine mother of the universe" by Ben Lee.

[cryingmushroom47]

@Tchetcherry Are you serious about life?

[3DInteractiveGun]

sad monkey misses his friend. not sure what other point it was trying to make. i was a bit surprised when it has the WWF logo at the end.

[candytophat]

how did you not know its pollution

[tygotygo]

Very powerful!

[foodlovingpig]

Does anyone else laugh at the ending?  It's such blatant manipulation, I can't help but laugh.

[candiandawn]

@foodlovingpig Stop laughing and get off my planet. =P

[powerpooch2000]

sounds a little like Damon Albarn

[i10Blog]

The monkey lands in Chernobyl, near Russia (familiar ferriswheel and city block).

[sonoki82]

@i10Blog

Wow. Good call. It is Pripyat, Ukraine.

[Tchetcherry]

@i10Blog

Tchernobyl is in Ukraine

[MattsBadIdea]

That is clearly a dude in bad Planet of the Apes makeup and not a chimp. That kind of ruined it for me.

[pranks7er]

@MattsBadIdea i wanna see you getting those expressions from a real chimp.

[sonoki82]

@MattsBadIdea

Hey, know what else? That's not even a real space capsule.

[TheQuinn9999999]

Wonderful.

[Supra2jz1998]

Great vid!!! Makes u wonder. What happened 2 the space monkeys sent out to space

[mandarkan51]

ce que j'aime le plus c'est surtout la chansson , le singe on s'en fou !
