Hans Rosling at Zeitgeist Europe 2007

bad edit job, he was introduced as making dry statistics entertaining but the camera stayed on him not on his presentation.. which is what this guy is known for... sure he's just useign gapminder BUT his message is beign missed by how often the editor decided that every shot be of Hans.. This video does injustice to his message..

Of course not. The US, Europe, China, Japan...they're all oppressors towards these countries for their own gain.

They pretty much remain poor due to warlords wanting to control everything wihtin "their" countries. Like Mugabe and those guys, they tell their people that foreign corporations are just out to fool them. Which has been true in some cases ofc, but nowhere near 50 or even 25 percent of all cases.

Awesome. Thanks for the video. :-)

When I look at 15:45 I still see an economic gap in the world. But I agree that it is decreasing.

Talk starts at 3:30

If you only look at the presentation, you are maybe like Chimp in IQ...
Listen what he says..not how he says it..
Sorry for your incompetens...

Some people are visual learners, some are hands-on, and some are better when they hear things. I am a visual learner, therefore, I need to see those graphs, and that, therefore, does not make me incompeteNT, it just means we have different learning styles.

And thank you to LeedansParis, I will check it out there.

I agree, it makes it hard to visualize the data and understand what he's referring to when the camera is on him reading his screen and clicking his mouse and talking about what the graphs are doing, when we can't even see the graphs!!

He does the exact same talk for TED Talks which has much better production.
