  • i like thaat song... its from 'Actually... Love' isn't it ? :D ♥

  • music please?

  • @mariostarjk ,so am I.I'm just doing my homework now :D It's meant to be in fir tomorrow!!

  • i saw this but the song mad world was playing

  • Song is Restauraunt by Craig Armstrong from the Movie "Love Actually"

  • @duski001 it's from love actually :)

  • Man I know that song but can't remember it. It's from a movie isn't it?

  • Without the truth, there can be no real morality, justice, equality, success, freedom, love, security, peace, spirituality or even survival. To seek the truth, search "Truth Contest" in Google and click on the 1st result, then open The Present and read what it says.

  • This is so horrible it made me cry.. I realize how "lucky" I am to live in a rich country as Norway. I feel really ashamed actually!

  • @rosenorge123 One is not "lucky" to live in a rich country, one is "lucky" to be rich, be it in a rich or poor country. Why a "rich" person in a poor country should be considered unlucky? I live in a developing country but I'm more educated and wealthy than most "first worlders". It's annoying this habit of some "first worlders" of generalizing the "third worlders". Anyway, one should not be ashamed of what he conquered through honest work.

  • Hi, could somebody please tell me the name of the song playing? I can't find it anywhere!

  • I currently live in a third world country (the Philippines). And although I appreciated most of the video, the only part of the video that I found a bit misleading was the one about struggling to live off of $1 or $2 US per day.

    It would be more accurate to do an economy to scale. A lot of these people which you say are "struggling" are families that successfully live off of $1 to $2US per day the same way someone in the U.S. might live off of $50 per day.

  • Appreciate what you have and the opportunities that you have been given. Never feel guilty for what you have achieved and made for yourself.

  • It's sad that there's 18 dislikes. This is amazing.

    Makes you happy for what you have.(And makes you stop complaining that you didn't get an XBox 360 for Christmas, hehe)

  • what is the name of this song~~~ pls pls pls~

  • it's amazing, made me cry so much! but... one question, somebody knows how it's the name of this song?

    I've heard elsewhere and do not know where.

    PD:Forgive my English

  • It's amazing how small we are and still can make such a huge impact on everything around us.

  • i am doing a report on this

  • This made me realize that I should be happy with what I have. Well this was a boost I needed.

  • It just made me cry after me bitching about my life, thank you, thank you for posting this to remind all of us that we have so much that other don't! Thank you God for everything!

  • awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww­wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww!!!

    <3 <3 <3

  • today we watched this video in English class. In europe we are very lucky

  • It has been very impressive!! I think all we must contribute our fair share.. :)

  • wat is this song...really wanting 2 no??? pls

  • @ShonaPJ1 It's a song from the movie "Love Actually" and according to iTunes, it's a bonus track so idk the name but that should be a good head start for you :)

  • Comment removed

  • This vidoe claims that 2/6 of the people on Earth are Christian, which is complete bullshit.

  • This is so sad and beautiful. It really makes you think.

  • gah, thats so annoying! why do over half of the world only live on $2 a day? thats surely wrong, we must do something to make it right.

  • i think its stupid that even if we shrunk the world population by millions, so many would still be starving, un-educated, poor, and all of that. that just shows how selfish we really are. and you'd think half the population wouldnt be struggling to live if only 100 people lived on earth.and that we'd all have the same wealth.. but i guess not. anyways thats just my opinion.

  • I like the point the video is trying to make. We never seem to think about anyone else. So many people suffer everywhere else and yet here in America our daily lives center around what the celebrities are doing and who's cheating who. Even if the statistics aren't that relevant anymore, it's a good message.

  • how many play wow ?

  • Would be just over 0.15 of a person.

  • So many people going through life suffering, and we're worried about Tiger Woods.

  • !!! you're so right!

  • @zeppelingitis  Good point

  • What about the athiests?

  • How can the VIPs get that?

  • Watched this is school today

  • Saw this in class today! Really gets me! Life is unfair! Let's do something!!

  • I got a bank account, but no money on it. Am I rich??? Little joke. I like this video and its statement, but if these states are well-known, why isn´t there any politician who changes these things. hmm, change...where have I heard this before???

  • why isn´t there any politician who changes these things?

    I quote "It is not a big enough polictical issue."

  • Thanks for sharing this with the world.

  • So one of the possible messages would be: prepare to have less and less and less? Or why doesn't this video show up some numbers related to what is the price they pay those who own for example a banc account? How about work, commitment,....denaturalisatio­n or alienation?

    Informing video otherwise.

  • that doesnt make sense about the internet and computers. probably 90% of north america has computers and internet, and those asians have too many computers to go around!

  • You didnt get it at all did you?

  • oh is it a joke?

  • No, its not a joke. You didnt get the whole point of the video. The point is that NOT having a computer is the norm, that what we call 'poor' is normal for most of the worlds population. Asia is a relatively poor continent, just because a large portion of the japanese population own computers doesnt mean the whole of asia do. And 90% of north america is a very small amounf of people if you think about the world as a whole.

  • Whats the name of the song??

  • it's in the movie, "love actually"

  • Comment removed

  • I need to watch this everyday as a reminder. Truly.

  • its shocking realizing how blessed you are after seeing this video. im floored. but im insanely thankful. insanely.

    song is beautiful, what is the name?

  • If we were only 100 people on Earth, I would share my bed.

  • why are you even searching this video then? or did you just search 'Why do I have a miniature cock?' in google and this came up?

  • Does anyone know what song that is?

  • don't know the name, but it's in the movie "love actually"

  • Great video.

  • How many people do you thing have computers and the internet?

  • This was just the medicine I needed this morning!

  • wow that was so powerfull that made me cry and relieze that i am soooooooo blessed!!!!!!

    that is soooo true

  • Dear deafkyleb,

    Shut up. Crying about an offensive term is lame, also I'm gay. Respecting the gay communities is as important as the gays respecting the mainstream folks by not pushing this gay acceptance bullshit. Be happy were not being lynched anymore! See where a few hundred years gets you? If being gay shouldnt be a big deal, then start practicing what you preach and chill. Accept terminology and move on. Gay has been used like that for years, it wont change soon. Deal with it. Stop crying.

  • Interesting that some people can watch a video like this and come away talking about sexual orientation issues. More importantly it challenges us to think about someone besides ourselves.

  • si llevabas razon ...esa es la cancion y su titulo.....gracias.

  • i like it very much now i think the value of one doller so now i do somthing for poor people

  • One word comes to mind Koyaanisquati & it's sequels Powaquatsi & Naqoyqatsi, all free google videos. Thanks George.

  • I would like to see the figures updated.

  • i''m so happy that you put music on this =)

    it's beautuful

  • Really Moving. Opened up my eyes

  • This video is truly amazing and realistic. It just hit me way too fast and hard. Being a member of one of my country's richest families I went under shock knowing that according to my country's current economic system, if reduced the entire chilean population to just 100 people. I'd be among the 3 richest, who own about 46,09% of the national income. It's kinda... annoying actually...

  • thats kind depressing

  • Tre magnifique. To see things put in these

    numbers is remarkable. But the computation

    does not make pain and suffering any less in

    the small world. Statistics are statitics and

    the same thing in a small world.  Change it to make a difference

  • Wonderful video makes you think. Thanks for posting it.

  • Rather puts things in perspectives doesn't it? Powerful video.

  • "Lo que hacemos es apenas una gota en el océano pero sin esa gota, al acéano le faltaría algo"

  • anyone knows the song title please reply to this post! thanks

  • The song is from the movie "Love Actually" and is called "Portuguese Love Theme" by Craig Armstrong

  • Esa no es la cancion que dices....la he estado buscando y ese titulo no es.......

  • Very powerful

  • great atmosphere in the video, it makes people think and consider.

  • All the data in this video were published in 1990 so they're pretty inaccurate but its pretty sad still. 18 years is a lot. I'd say there is more Muslims than Christians now too. I could be wrong but I'll never be sure and I'll never trust Wikipedia either lol.

  • what song is this?

  • That was so powerful I love that movie it makes me apracate what I have

  • I want to see updated figures. I will ocasionally look for the updated video.

  • these r the updated figures

  • how sad .. u r looking for updated figures .. an't these figures strong enough to make u feel for them rather than asking for updated figures ..

  • If I only.....

  • C'est impressionnant ça fait réfléchir en tou cas merçi beaucoup pour cette mise en vidéo magnifique

  • Please can you tell me what the music is and where I can get a copy of it?

  • Im pretty sure that it is on itunes under orchrastra music if that helps I fund it there once =)

  • People who are saying this is crap get a life look around you! People are starving in places even in America! So be thankful

    God bless America

  • Good video, great idea, great theme, but the statistics are far off and killing me. First, there should be more Muslims than Christians in this mini-world -- and where did the 1 trillion in military come from? That's close to the real number, that couldn't happen in mini-world. It would be maybe 100k and that would be a lot haha

  • keep in mind that this was done a while back and is slightly inaccurate

  • And i dont think there are more muslims than christians on the earth...

  • why would there be more muslins than christians?

  • Because there is more muslims than christians.

  • since when?

  • since in grammar we say there is in stead of there are...

    so no there aren't more muslims than christians. since christianity has a wide variety(catholics, orthodox etcetera...)

  • Go read the history behind the project and the statistics used. Google it, it is easy to verify where the numbers came from.

  • I've seen it...it's for real believe me. I' ve been out there in the fields with these people..it's real!

  • blame it on currency

  • Yes I am thankful every day. And- every single one of us makes up our world- every little bit of what we do is part of something else even if that's only apathy! Persist in good!!!

    God Bless

  • Thank god I'm in the non-religious percentage.

  • We're changing the world by affecting people in a positive way. Yes there's a lot of shit which goes on in this world, but don't loose faith - we each have to do what we can to make our world a better place

  • The Earth is not helpless and sad. If it is at all, it is because we have made it this way. We have overpopulated its surface, coupled with greed and hatred, and we have created a planet and life unsuitable for living. There is hope, though, and its our job to do everything in our ability to help.

  • No offense, but there are too many corrupt leaders for me to change the world.

  • That is way awesome...favourited...I mean the video you made is awesome, but it's sad that so many people are poor and how selfish people are not to even donate. You really made people think

  • GOD!!!!

  • iam speech less

  • it's sad but amazing

    i really like this !!

  • Truly eye-opening...amazing job...

  • excellent work! please accept my humble congratulations... we all need to feel the sadness & helplessness of the earth.

  • i just realized.. this is the song from love actually.. am i right?

    i think i'm right...

  • I dunno, but thanks for your guess.

    =8^)

  • its sad. if u have a refridgorator a closet, a bed to sleep in and a roof over ur head u r richer than 75% of the earth

  • We all need to struggle for a more just world that works to provide for people, not exploit them in the name of (Capitalist) competition.

    Since WWII we have created massive amounts of wealth and developed technology that if used properly could provide a real life for the whole world.

    Instead of this inequality has grown with the rich getting richer and the lot of the whole world still impoverished.

    This was no accident it is the outcome of the capitalist system that we live in today.

  • What's the name of this song, I know it's from Love Actually, but I have no idea what it's called;)?..It's beautiful, and this movie is really eye-opening!

  • I think it's called "Portuguese Love Theme" from the movie Love Actually. There is amazing music on the cd, much like this song.

  • where can i find this song?

  • Great video, and if you like it or not, if it causes you to think, then it's been worth your time.

    53% of the worlds population gets by on $2 a day! That's both amazing, and very embarrassing.

    Indeed, appreciate your good fortune!

  • peace

  • wow....good film

  • It's from Love Actually

  • Anyone know the song? Tha's some powerful stuff.

  • Mad World by Gary Jules

  • Realli think this videos guud.. musik too.. <3

  • this video is great, with song is better...

  • My principle showed it to us in assembly at my school too, and it had a great effect on me and most people i think.

    we all stoped our laughing and talking, and paid attention to this video because it is not only well made but the content is so thought provoking.

    I think it's really great that the teachers in my school and yours, even though i live on the other side of the world from you, are making us all aware.

  • wuts that song?

  • cool song

  • Después d ever este video parecería un privilegio verlo y poder dejar un comentario. 6 personas tendrían el 53% de las riquezas? Es como para preocuparse, pero mientras se mantange una pasividad y apatía frente a problemas de desproprción como esos, todo seguirá igual. Que horrible.

    (J)

  • Not all asians are Chinese. Not all starving people are Africans.

  • Wow puts things in perspective. We don't know how lucky we really are just to be typing a comment here.

  • i think this video is very good we were shown it in geography it made my class think about there actions we promised to help the world but i think some didnt beleive it some thought it was funny i thought it was sad to think that is how somepeople live

  • gracias Dios x q sin merecer nada me lo das todo

    me das salud y me provees de lo necesario

  • It really shows us how lucky we are and how we need to appriciate the things we have and that we should ALWAYS help others.

  • absolutely beautiful movie, and i think extremely effective. really emphasizes the vast majority of people who are living in poverty.

    one question...any religions NOT listed, do they not have enough people to be included in the 100?

    just curious...

  • Great ad for mandatory world wide sterilization... What is the message here??? "pls make the world a better place 2% of you that are sucking up 98% of the world's resources while the other 98% suffer, starve and die...or appreciate what you've stolen from 98% of the rest of the world 2% of you aholes that are sucking up the world's resources while the other 98% die? Really phony, really gay, really in denial. Wake up you selfish f##@s is far better.

  • Your message is offensive. Apart from the first part of your message, which does NOT offend me, the following does:

    "Really phony, really gay, really in denial. Wake up you selfish f##@s is far better."

    More specifically, the use of the word "gay" in an inappropriate context. Contextually, the word here means that it is really useless.

    Is it? Judge for yourself.

  • I already did judge for myself didn't I? This video's conclusion offends me--the fact that it urges viewers to 'count their blessings' instead of stop ravaging the rest of world and is greatly offensive. Funny you should focus on the word 'gay', --tell me it's an inappropriate contextual use and then demonstrate your accurate understanding of the context...no, not really useless but quite hypocritical and phony for sure.

  • Yes, I looked 'gay' up. I think I meant that it is offensive to use 'gay' in an insulting manner, Indeed, I emphasized that with the rhetorical question. I feel that the way you used 'gay' is insulting because it degrades people who are members of the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgendered) community. It does not create more acceptance. It creates more divisiveness. I forgive you for this, but please be more respectful of people who are LGBT.

  • I suppose this comment will be lost on you since you had to look up the word 'gay' to know that it has multiple meanings. That also means that the multiple meanings do not have to be related to each other. ex: draw, light, beg, bank... it has nothing to do with sexual orientation in the context that I used it. Get over it already...

  • ive always agreed with this. our world can be better then this, the people are willing but uneducated and hesitant. Lets start with the media, enough stories about dogfood and people living under bridges.

  • Personally I'd like to hear more stories about dogfood. That sounds totally relevant.

  • Ha ha, I'm filthy stinkin' rich you stupid community. And to that dude with the aids: WHOA SORRY BUDDY that sucks.

  • you're just stinking stupid, not rich. You sound like a total moron and a good candidate for my "your parents should have been sterilized" plan.

  • Someone's got sand in their vagina...

  • fukin retard..dats y u fukin unappreciative of wut u have and u probably dont take advantage dat...but its ok, we all know deep inside ur lonely and want attention

  • At least I've taken advantage of my EDUCATION and learned how to SPELL PROPERLY, you twit.

  • lol...how stupid can u be honestly?...its called makin ur point short "twit"...why am i spendin my time on a stupid guy like u dat just wants attention?

  • lol u ur u dat ur u lol

  • right?

  • Wrong.

  • ur mom...lol..leave me alone u fuker

  • does anyone know what the music is?

  • Its from one of my favorite movies: Love Actually

    I like this version better than the one with Imagine accompanying it- too distracting with the vocals

  • Awesome job here!

  • the music is fantastic, it really emphasizes the most important scenes.

  • Truly unbelievable...I've traveled all over the world and it really changes the way you view things. There is so much beauty out there, but also so much poverty. I live in Hawaii and I always thankful for everything I have.

    This video has a very powerful message.

  • It leaves out the fact that the 6 people to own most of the wealth are all American.

  • I think 2 are european

  • Grab your calculator and think again dumbass.

  • very powerful all it needs is ppl to help

  • This is very powerful if only everyone understood and tried to do sumthing to change this the world would be a better place.

  • Count your blessings, that's what grandma used to say.

    But what I see on this video, is that giving voice, images, and music to the undertoned world is a kind of mission for the ... 12 people, here, who have a computer, the 3 persons who have a internet connection. :) Hello to you all

  • What Song is this? It really works witht the video:) IT makes it even more beautiful:) Plz let me know where the song came from:)

  • It's from the score of the movie Love Actually :) It does add a lot to the video, doesn't it? Georgeschiffer, perfect timing, it looks great!

  • great without sound, but better with music...thanks for the post!

  • Awesome!!
