  • Information is powerful.. But it is how we use it that will define us! Amazing words!

  • @kshaq22 oh yes of course. America is in control of EVERYTHING. We can't even solve our own debt crisis, and yet somehow you think we can control the world. Its just ridiculous. The vast majority of us AREN'T ignorant savages, or at least a lot of us aren't. Its because we are successful, and success breeds resentment. Sorry we just make more money. Our mistake.

  • Gawww!!! Please shut up!!! If all your gonna do is post a comment that starts or responds to an argument.... DONT!! It's annoying! And if all my exclamation marks didn't emphasize this then I don't know what will.

  • this is such a great commercial.....it just goes to show what a little technology can do in a hard place....LOVE!!!!

  • you person is so stupid because he is actually helping others who dont know

  • who would dislike this ? 

  • This video is really inspiring how of Google is not just for searching things... its a tool that people use to find out more about things in the world.

  • What a filthy commercial. People dying in Africa, and Google makes money out them. What a filthy corporation, what a disgusting piece of America is.

  • @kshaq22

    I think you might be missing the entire point, dude. You've got to realize that this man's message is stronger than any corporation's advent. Even if they ARE making money, the sheer good will and influence of this is more important than any of that. Also I'm pretty sure they don't really, like...do what you're saying.

    Unless you're trolling. I kind of hope you are.

  • @kshaq22 I live in South Africa...dont tell me what happens and what doesnt happen. You have no clue about corporate slavery in my country and continent.

  • @kshaq22 you are fuckin arab stop insluting people you dick head and southafrica belongs to black not terroriss

  • @rockerfuck1 Are you fucking retarded? When did I mention terrorists? Of course it belongs to the blacks, but blacks have no say over the affairs of their country...it's an illusion if you think blacks have a say. The whole continent is occupied by USA and its corporate enterprises. Wake up you fucking idiot asshole.

  • @kshaq22 you are really ignorant if you think that, you must be the one who is retarded

  • @kshaq22 Your really ignorant and stupid at best, how about you think of what Google IS doing. Google made this amazing video showing how Google actually helps the world instead of not sharing hope and information. Google doesn't make money off them. First of all, they are a Multi-billion $ business, do you really think that they would take from ANYONE? Google probably gave the guy a couple 100's just for talking about his life. If you dislike Google, get off YouTube, cause Google made it.

  • @SniperNator305 sorry, but Google didn't make YouTube

  • @harut1230 Sorry, your brain is missing from your skull.

  • @SniperNator305 I heard, that google owned youtube some years ago, that is not mean that google made it, if I false, tell me right story.

  • Wow, This is the first time I have actually watched an entire ad! This is a beautiful and worthwhile story. This is how advertisements [should] be - inspirational.

    Thank you.

  • Oh wow, I never thought I'd see an ad that didn't make me want to hit "Skip." So inspiring, that I stopped whatever foolishness I was watching to come here and watch it again.

    Wow.

  • About time for these kids to know whats around them :)

  • knowledge isn't power... applied knowledge is power.

  • Left handed :-)

  • what a Great AD (:

  • Wow. What an amazing man.

  • best ad ever :]

  • What a touching story :)

  • Use your IPHONE IPAD search snail bob.or click this link:

  • oh.my god. kenya is very poor man

  • @ndayekim1 where on earth do you come from to say that? "am already expecting a lie though"

  • @ndayekim1 I'm kenyan and your absolutely wrong living in Africa as whole is very enriching experience why don't you stop relying on media for your information go there and see with your own eyes instead of being on your computer twelve hours a day.

  • I love this ad.

  • @jokina11 dude technoloy and village life don't go together this is an attempt to change the way people live their lives but i will pray over it with voodoo it would fail

  • this commercial is pure bullshit you mean to tell me a traditional villager know have the knowledge about farming? bullshit what did they do back in told days then? racist piece of shit thinking knowledge revolves around them when it was us africans that thought the world about agriculture

  • Comment removed

  • One can make a difference without spending any money. Just share videos like this!

  • I like african culture because they have some of the last land, without roads and highways destroying the wildlife. it's a beautiful place, 

  • @HedgieDiva Concrete and Tar should not be used when creating paths.

  • @LATQueens In this movie it does. ;)

  • Timbuktu to Ancient Kemet( Egypt), we have always been a great people, just a little too friendly. That's Africans worst treat. Be meek but gaurdful like the Chinese.

  • lol Wow, the niggers are really on the ball. Watch out world!

  • @bittersylence1 Did it ever occur to you in your stupidity, that most black people DON'T like to be called this word?

  • @mannecyberguy Niggers hate being called the word nigger. So? Who cares? I hate that the niggers commit most of the crimes in America, and looking at Africa...they are sure doing a bang up job there also. Get over all this "n" word crap. I'll say it. Nigger. If they don't like it...I can always use yard ape, spear chucker, moon cricket, knuckle dragger, oar tugger, nappy headed nog, or jungle bunny. Big dope.

  • @bittersylence1 That's where you're vastly wrong, the worst criminals in history are those who think(if at all possible) that they're so all fired superior to anyone unlike themselves that they make the world stink; you, for example, with your moronic bigotry and rascism would make a dead skunk smell like Chanel No.5. Also caja muerto, if you please.

  • @bittersylence1 Hope you die.

  • @kishennayee It certainly wouldn't hurt.

  • sO COOL! hE'S VISITING cALIFORNIA FOR THHE FIRST TIME. cHECK HIM OUT ON fACEBOOK!

  • This is absolutely moving! So beautiful!

  • Such a great story, great advertisement. great camera ,great sound , perfect

  • I am very proud of Zack Matere, using the internet as a tool to advance your knowledge and assist society in many ways...when most people just use it for stupid pointless things.

    The internet is an assistance machine that should be used to help humanity advance, not be used as a 'magic box' to complain to others and 'troll' people because of their insecurities.

  • Truely a great story

  • Where there's a will there's a way

  • this is so lovely and uplifting.

  • @fresgame FUCK RON PAUL HES NOT GONNA MAKE A DIFFERENCE IN THIS COUNTRY

  • this is a very touching video! :)

  • they need one of those boards in the white house and congress!

  • its soo powerful what he said "information is powerful but it is how we use it that will define us"

  • 41 thumbs are those of potato eating ants

  • 41 thumbs are those of tyranical warlords trying to encroach his village

  • Im proud to say he is my friend on Facebook!

  • 太卡了!!!

  • :

  • @mosesmoses2000 how does voting for Ron Paul even relate to Jesus coming back? don't post stupid stuff like this.

  • Who on earth would dislike this?

  • @AminamiNaminom Don't know for sure but my guess...RACIST WHITES.

  • 41 dislikes??? WTF??

  • @jiepper - I am hoping many were mistakes .....

    

  • @jiepper yes 41 dislikes because the village life and technology dont go together

  • This guy is awesome and selfless. Just one of many human beings across our planet working to make the world a better place. The internet truly is the only functioning democracy on Earth.

  • This is a beautiful quote, "I think I am searching for, a better life for me and my neighbors." Why is it so much more common to hear, "I am seeking a better life for myself" ? Too often, a better life for one comes at the expense of others. When we can learn to align our own self-interests with the self-interests of others, that is when all of humanity will have a much more peaceful, much more enjoyable existence.

  • Great video but press 1 for stanky legg

  • Early childhood education e-book “Mother's true heart” will tell your kids a true on maternal story happened in a big big forest.

  • Faith in humanity restored

  • It doesn't matter how progressive is your place of residence. The key here is learning to use your skills to help someone else!! There's always going to be someone else needing assistance and we're each endowned with special gifts that we can make a difference in someone elses life. Pls, let's not focus on the petty stuff that leave us the way we've always been. Much grattitude to the uploader for this on. Peace

  • I come from Kenya and in the same line i hope the information i have gathered from school and the internet,i take it back and help make the our society a better place. Najivunia kuwa Mkenya(Proud to be Kenya).

  • A quality human being

  • I love his accent

  • Now google, help those in China

  • @brokenbones199 you forgot thailand and laos and those countries

  • I was going to listen to a song and right before it played, this video came up. I think his story is so beautiful, I hope one day everyone will be able to have access to things that can help us make life just a little bit better.. thanks Zack Matere and Google

  • i watch this daily

  • I want to live in Kenya now.

  • This was a wonderful vid and OF COURSE it's caused arguments over something silly, stupid and trivial. Not like people take note of what the vid is saying, no we're too busy arguing over stupid subjects like subtitles. Americans really are ridiculous.

  • kinda makes me feel like a douche for how i use the internet..

  • ""Yo what's up, I know people post wild comments on here talking bout check out there music and I know people dont like to bother listening to underground music, but what I would love the most would be for you guys to give me a chance and take a listen to my music whenever you have a moment, I promise my music is real.. And I know everybody raps nowadays but everybody does everything. I guess I'll find out If dreams come true. Please leave comments. watch?v=166pTnmD2eg Thank you""

  • Isn't he already speaking english??? lol why the subtitles? well, I guess some people have difficulty understanding certain accents. It happened to me the first time I came to Texas, I had trouble with the southern accent and I still have trouble understanding people from India when they speak english

  • god, i would give anything to live there. I love how simple their life is and how everybody knows and like everybody. Here there is always riots,wars and protests because people want more and once they get more they still aren't happy, but these people are happy with what they have got and i just think that its is amazing. When i am older and if i have enough money i am definitely going somewhere like that

  • I'm surprised people are insulted by the subtitles being there. I'm more insulted by the fact there was a "skip ad" option on this.

  • This add popped up on another video I was watching. Usually, I skip the adds. But for some reason, this one intrigued me. It is a perfect example of how the Internet can benefit life. "Information is powerful, but it is how we use it that will define us." That quote couldn't be more true. <3

  • And then came the Protect-IP and SOPA Acts...

  • You "insulted" few that can't believe how dreadful the filmmakers are for putting subtitles in this video need to realize something... The only version of this video you've seen has been subtitled. Had you seen it for the first time without, almost unavoidable, subtitles in the bottom of the screen, I can guarantee that about half of you would of been lost or confused at some portions. It's easy to say you understand him when you had subtitles there guiding you along in the first place...

  • wow this video really gripped me. i don't get emotional or into ads like this ever but fuck... this was a great story. sometimes i forget there are communities on this planet that are just discovering or using technology that people in my country take for granted. thumbs up to Zach Matere.

  • honestly who disliked this....oh wait yahoo did....

  • i love how this made me cry haha

  • @xxliv2laughxx it is so deep

  • This is so touching !

  • i'm absolutely touched by this video. Kinda makes you grateful for what you have

  • @HikariSatou Kinda opens your eyes to the amount of resources europe robbed the world of.

  • @Wilzehagawa That is absolutely true. What hasn't Europe/Europe descendants stolen since the earliest revolutions/expansions haha.

  • The only thing I am a fanboy about is google

  • Comment removed

  • Saw this just a few seconds ago, I'm glad I decided not to 'skip ad'. Man, when I become a multimillionaire and maybe even a multibillionaire I am going to find good people like the man showed here and support them so that they can continue to carry on doing their good while I do mine. I want to build a network of people like that man and see them all together one day, smiling, laughing, having fun, sharing stories, etc. Life has good and bad, let's focus on the good and strive for it.

  • This is a really beautiful commercial. I don't even think of it as a commercial, more of a happy story. :)

  • make's u think, few people like him

    

  • make's u think, few people like him

  • Use it for information and a better life

    Has 1200 friends on facebook

  • Having spent some time in Kenya, this 'ad' immediately caught my eye. But it is something more than an advertisement. If we had more people like Zack Matere in the world it would truly be a great world.

    Thank you to all those who made this video.

  • whoever dislikes this should rot in hell, you're slowing human progression down basterds!!!

  • That's super inspirational... "Information is powerful, but it is how we use it that defines us."

  • Nice story bro…I’m guessing you haven’t seen the other awesome part of the Internet yet...

  • Awesome, he is inspiring us all!  Thank you for sharing! Bless him!

  • This is on stuff Phil likes? awesome :) i didnt even know and im subbed to him

  • This is so sweet :D

  • @imalikconnor Dumb ass

  • @Fis10n This is an add you are watching and you are a confused person (or satanist robot who wants to insult me via youtube)... I was just saying fuck this guy. Now who's the fucked one?

  • I'm trying to tell old people its not all bad, but they just don't listen....

    <3

  • Hopefully he doesn't find 4chan...

  • Hopefully he doesn't find 4chan...

  • farmer uses a CRT

    LCD Footage shows up in video

    ಠ_ಠ...

  • @dcheartly Google filmed him. Pretty sure Google has a shit ton of money.

  • "Information is powerful,but it is how we use it that will define us". I have heard wise words but these ones will stay in my heart and mind until my death.

  • I use the internet for cat videos.....

  • Why the fuck has everyone started bickering over subtitles after watching such an inspiring video?

  • wonderful :)

  • Information is powerful..but it is how we use it that will define us. 10/10.

  • @kingmario8 more like 100/10...

  • Comment removed

  • It shows subtitles as a video technique not to show that he can't speak English properly.

  • thumbs up because your reading this right now

  • i use it to watch videos

  • This guy speaks better english than most english people

  • This video really makes me want to do something with my life. But an hour later I will be still watching youtube videos..

  • completely epic. dude is awesome

  • Spent 2 months in Uganda among enterprising people like this guy out in a rural village. Africa has such great people, but such a troubled past. People are grateful for everything they have in Africa.

    Love videos like this that remind me of that general area, and the people.

  • no one send em a link to facebook!!!

  • Does anybody know what this song is?

  • Wow. He's a really cool guy.

  • "Information is powerful, but it is how we use it that defines us."

    Well fucking put, man. Brilliantly spoken :D

  • I hope he continues creating a better life for himself and those around him! Absolutely incredible

  • Of all the ways english can be accented, I think a native African accent is the coolest :)

  • damn and all i use it for is porn.

  • what an amazing person

  • who else was waiting for an antelope to jump out of no where and knock him off the bike?
