You are not a person, you are a planet, made of roughly 40 trillion cells. There is so much of you, that if your cells were human-sized, you would be as big as 20 Mount Everests. For your creepy-crawly inhabitants, this makes your body an ecosystem, rich in resources and warmth and space. A perfect place to move into and have a family. While some of these guests are welcome, most are not. Your immune system is the guardian of this planet, the force tasked with protecting yourself against the constant danger of invasion.

Hey everybody! Today finally marks the release of “Immune – A Journey Into the Mysterious System that Keeps You Alive”. The book I’ve sorta started writing a decade ago!
You can get it here: https://kgs.link/ImmuneBook – It’s available in English and German and at online retailers it should be available in pretty much all countries too.
First we had to push the release back because of cargo trouble and then because so many of you pre-ordered that we didn’t have enough copies for the original launch day! Thank you so, so much for that!
Tonight I’m doing an AMA on Reddit where you can ask me about Kurzgesagt, science communication and of course the book! Join here: https://kgs.link/KGS_AMA
In any case – Kurzgesagt is a passion project and it’s just so heartwarming how wholesome and supportive our community and viewers are. I’m incredibly grateful to have this job and to be able to make content for all of you, video or printed. – Philipp
My book arrived today, can’t wait to get home and see it!!!!
@Mister K it’s a new video
Nice
The world really needed this channel 😌👏👏👏
Thanks for making us dream a better future and teaching us so many interesting things in such a fun way😁👌👌.
Please never die. And lets work together for making humanity stronger and more prepare for any problem the universe throw to us. 💪😎
I wish I could buy from Bangladesh by any online shop
“You’re not a person, you’re a planet”
Well ironically you can blame coronavirus for my weight gain so…
we just went through a very long strict lockdown of about 100 days so I still need to work off a few kilos
@Blue Miaou then what is it? You don’t don’t become fat from COVID unless you eat garbage and don’t move as well
Michael: _Or are you?_
@Robert Iveson your life is a joke too if that is a joke
This hit me personally
“first you need to find someone who thinks you’re cute”, Kurzgesagt hitting us with knowledge
Who are you?
Lmao, you are the next in line of millions, billions, trillions and more of organisms, all of whom were successful at reproducing. Years of evolution shaped you to be a successful breeder.
And you’re the first and only specimen this remarkably long chain who effed that up and failed to reproduce. What a waste!
@Bas de Jong lol good one
Kurzgesagt makes cells that looks like among us
@Alexander Georgiou but your personality, which is inside you, can be cute. That’s what the guy meant.
Me: Maybe this won’t be an existential crisis
Kurzgesagt: You’re not a person
Kurzgesagt: you’re not a person
Mark Zuckerberg: And i took that personally
30 days banned for you -mark
“You’re not a person, you’re a planet”
I haven’t worked out in a while, but damn. Me needing to go to the gym, wasn’t what I expected to learn from this video.
hahahaha
same
Marvel’s Ego instantly came to mind
@Caleb Vejvoda i believe uranus would be interesting planet 😀
You get one or two tiny moons orbiting you and people get all judgmental, am I right?
“Immune is fun and great to look at, and it even SMELLS GOOD!”
Yeah, smells really selling😂
Ok, I was at the end of the video and scrolling down as he talked about the book, and then I read this comment, was kinda confused, and then within 5 seconds of reading the comment I hear “Immune is fun and great to look at, and it even smells good.”
The timing was uncanny.
@jayzenstyle Yeah I know right 😂
But that’s not what I mean, but it’s okay, nevermind
@Jackson Funke Lmao sorry, I only typing what interesting for me
Yeah but now I need to know, does it just have that nice new book smell, or did they actually add something? 😀
@Tim Williams BHAHAHAHAH! XD
It might be
And if it’s true, I will wipe this book all over my outfit everytime before I go outside rather than using my perfume XD
i just heard kurzgesagt call babies useless: “and even then, it will take them years for them to be remotely useful”
my life is now complete
Biotechnologist here, working on antibody engineering. I have been watching your videos almost since the beginning and preordered your book. Your videos never fail to amaze me, but this video is on another level. Is the pinnacle of science divulgation, something that scientists should aim for. The systems you are explaining are complicated even for those with biology knowledge, but you explain them with an easiness and preciseness worth of mentioning.
Thank you so much for your videos, and keep it up! 😀
I’m a biochemist and I agree. This video very well explains the most fundamental parts and processes of our immune system in a very accessible way.
Keep up the great work kurzgesagt!
@Kurzgesagt – In a Nutshell I just bought the book it is epic
im a sex offender and this book is great
I’m a biochemist and talking about VDJ recombination gives me PTSD from my university days.

“The details are way too complicated for this video, *but in a nutshell…*”
HE SAID IT! HE SAID THE THING!
