@A K it’s a story and they never claimed that it was true
@Some Weird Stuff I Posted on Youtube I wad wondering the same thing; they probably just kept it private until today 😉
This confused me
@Lasse Münker me and I know I made the shit up
After watching this video, I found peace with myself. Thanks Kurzgesagt
Okay, all jokes aside, thank you for bringing us this outstanding content kurzgesagt. This one was truly magnificent and seriously hope you’ll do more of these.
“I’m Hamilton?” You said, appalled.
“And you’re the fool who shot him.”
Palirano I appreciate this so much
this is the content I was searching the comments for
There’s a million things I haven’t but just you waaaaaait
Heheh nice. Also *the damn fool
*Damn Fool
“Why do all this?”
“For LOLz my child, for the LOLz”
I did it for the LOLz my child
Just saying, this is the same guy that vividly described the smell of the protagonist’s crew member’s feces in The Martian
Nobody’s perfect
Kurzgesagt animated humans instead of birds!! Someone get the camera!
~dies
You: so what’s the meaning of life?
God: ~sigh~ you wouldn’t believe how many times I’ve said this…
“You were on your way home” ok
“When you died” OH.
By you, yourself.
Logic album “everybody” was inspired also by the egg by Andy Weir
Yep! I was looking for this comment lol
Literally just kept scrolling cause I new someone had to mention this
Yes I recognized it too
Best isekai of the summer.
Watashitachi Onaji: That time I was reincarnated as everyone.
It’s not summer
feat. truck-kun
@your daily piece of hair it’s still summer until around September 21
Bill Wurtz: “You could make a religion out of this!”
No don’t.
Already done. Talk to India. Christianity is better though… none of this video is even testable. Atleast in Christianity, Jesus death, integrity of the Bible, and observation is used. This story is entirely untestable and at best only a fairy tale if not an outright trip to lala land.
hockeater lol why
@Shall NotWither oh the irony of someone who believes in a jewish zombie carpenter calling anyone elses goofy religion “LALA Land”…
>dies
>fade to black
>wake up
>find self in a wagon
>see god
>god opens mouth
“Hey you, you’re finally awake.”
god dammit, I knew this is where this was leading up to
Ya, but in this life, you don’t go to the cloud district very often…
I like that one
A next life I’d prefer right here
You were tryin’ to cross the border right? Walked right into that mack truck ambush.
Random: “Do you believe in God?”
Kurzgesagt: *_”Well no but actually yes.”_*
@0192123 Shrodingers Religion
Well certainly, but actually perhaps
Kurzgesagt didn’t write this video, it’s an old story.
@Jason Hawken But it still feels jarring being narrated by a guy we associate with educational content.
this is not their story they just animated it.
Youtube: “The Egg In A Nutshell”
Me: “WHAT THE HELL?!”
My 4th Grade Teacher: “The world doesnt revolve around you.”
Kurz: *Hold my stories*
Ha ha.
The Reddit FBI do you realise you are the 4th Grade Teacher of your, and you are Kurz as well, and you are me typing this things?
@Jocurile lui Mihai Yeah, lmao
Andy*
“That cute girl you like, ask her out!”
Yeah I’ll ask myself out
And still end up getting rejected
Ight imma head out
Well you would also reject you
It just means you weren’t ready yet. In the next life time.
@N7 tungstenKestrel you mean I*
You’ve been talking to Joe Rogan? Will your next video be about chimps?
At least i’m not the person who actually likes jake paul..
*OH WAI-*
Slash Hi Jake…
A fabulous short story. Thanks for taking my mind into greater spheres.
Really makes me think of Alan Watts and his quote “You are the universe observing itself”.
When we die, we just go back to where we came from: the universe.
