- He started a wearable technology company called Digital Dudz that combined smartphones playing a video with clothing. Mark left NASA to grow the business for 2 years and after selling Digital Dudz to a company in the UK, he has recently decided to return to his Engineering roots.
Mark Rober is a CZcamsr and former NASA Engineer turned Inventor/Entrepreneur. He received his Bachelor’s degree in Mechanical Engineering from BYU and Masters from USC. He worked at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory for 9 years, 7 of which were spent working on the Curiosity Rover which is now on Mars. In 2011, he uploaded his Halloween costume to CZcams that featured 2 iPads using a FaceTime chat so it looked like he had a hole in his body. The video went viral overnight with 3M views and he decided to start posting monthly videos about creativity, science and design and now has over 77M total views and 350k subscribers.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
mark rober: i have about 100k subscribers now
me from the future: wow that’s cute
lol. I thought I was probably the only person to watch this vid in weeks or something because it's so old. I only clicked on it because I aleready know about Mark Rober.
@@baizamand same
IKR and now 4 years later he's almost at 10 mil !
except nobody will subscribe to you solely from you making silly comments
You think that's cute? Well he now has 10000000 (10mil) subs now
The final 3 points are (if you missed them):
1. Stay Curious
2. Work Hard
3. Get Lucky
thanks bro
"We're up all night to get lucky, we're up all night to get lucky."
17:25 But if you watch the whole thing, the advice is a lot more in depth and there's a funny anecdote about a rubber snake.
Ian Bernard? Like that crazy guy from X factor?
Alex Lushiku me too hahahaha
if creativity is a muscle, school has cut my tendons
You're going to Reddit my friend
@Nesspoil Technicallythetruth?
I am thinking about a new type of restaurants: eating-spots
in eating-spots, food keeps changing, chefs also rotate
this is opposed to current restaurants,
thanks to this rotation of food and chefs, eating-spots are more powerful than restaurants,
along with that, there is an app,
people vote for the food that will be cooked in the next days
menu is influenced by the live input of the people via an app
That head designer at apple is so good that he can make the exact same design 5 years in a row.
RoastymyToasty The overall style is the same
The marketing is so good that they can sell the exact same design 5 years in a row!
SciKE Of course they are! What about Samsung and LG? Their the same!
my 8plus fits in my 6plus case
David ha ha. Lovely. They are so "different" that almost everbody has the same. They are so "innovative" that a new preinstallation of an app is called a new version of the phone. Having an OELD that is used since eons is the biggest innovation? For apple yes. To force you to give your fingerprints and now that they have collected enough fingerprints forcing you to give your facedata to connect it to your account?
With no other choice by taking away the home button... A screen that is always on an reacts on anything you do with no possibility to turn it of? Yes it needs a big creative behind the marketing of such things to make people accept such things
How to get lucky - Increase the amount of times you flip the coin. Increase the amount of time you get up and keep trying.
and keep trying means work hard. Which means points 2 and 3 are the same.
You left out the role of bad luck.
Huh, why do people who work hard always seem to be the 'lucky' ones 🤔
500th like pog
Me: *gambles more*
Mark Rober is probably my favorite youtuber. This talk was great - thank you!
You are my favorite youtuber!
Naw, you too are my fav YTer.
you and him
JARED!
Yeet owen
6:42 - "Headphone port? Why is that there?" - Jony Ive
D Roam lol
"that's funny"
All the other phone manufacturers: 'well damn, either people don't use headphones or they use bluetooth ones... lets do what apple did'
yeah
Lmao
It's crazy to see how much more confidence he has now
mark rober: i have about 100k subscribers now
me from the future: wow that’s cute
Mark is the reason I have continued writing my book. Every, and I mean EVERY time I think about stopping when I'm writing, every time I doubt, Mark Rober comes up in my feed, my notifications, what have you. And every time, I keep writing. Because my idea is good enough, it is creative enough, Ya, sure maybe it's been done before, but I haven't written it yet. And maybe my version is the one the world needs. If it fails, if it flops, then too bad because I refuse to give up on this just yet.
Even if nobody buys ur book I will.......All the best!!!
@@ayooshiyer8621 me too... Just post when its released
notify us when it's complete :)
Hope you didn't give up
Hey, any update on your book? I hope everything is going well
This guy is a genius
Emnet Habteab A troll in the wall?
With creative dust.
He worked for NASA.
No he's just curious, works hard, and a little bit lucky.
Emnet Habteab no he’s not
Too bad the modern average academic system diminishes creativity....
Fight the power!
Exactly...
They just put it in a shredder
But u know,i dont get why they do it!!
Like have they never been in a school when they were kids and then thought,"oh,this is making the children less curious!! or oh they should learn in a different way!!"
Why do schools never change?
Jackle Craft yeah I just had to do an essay and my teacher said that it was just regurgitating information and we had to do it in a certain format
Anyone else here from MARK ROBER? Whoo!
yep
Same
Yep same here
Me
Genius
Mark Rober is now my role model
Charlie Engler he wasn't already?
Lewis Taser yah he really was but this finalized it
For creativity there is a quote that helps me "you can't get something from nothing"
Or
"There are no original ideas"
190K subscribers... has grown into 18.3M as of today... all stems from the idea that he "enjoyed people sharing his success"
amazing... what a dude - thanks for all the entertainment and teaching Mark!
What a great and inspiring presentation. Would also like to drop of my favorite quotes of all time: "Luck is the residue of hard work" - Branch Rickey
Just like John Milton's quote: 'Luck is the residue of design (planning)'
I always say "luck favors the prepared"
"The more I practice, the luckier I get"
This guy is awesome. It as if he really is a prodigy of science. I wonder if he ended the test after he lost the snake.
Michael Shipley no, he bought another one.
Michael Shipley if you still have this account, watch his CZcams channel it’s amazing
This guy is awesome. It as if he really is a prodigy of science. I wonder if he ended the test after he lost the snake.
lol 16m subs now lol
23.4 million now
I'm impressed that he actually agrees with the notion that to succeed you need to have a little bit of luck.
8 years later and Mark Rober now has over 51 million subscribers.

That Alexandria thing, as far as I know, made the Library of Alexandria, which I think was supposed to hold all knowledge of the ancient world.
How do I know this? “Alexa, what are you named after”
I knew this from Assassins Creed Origins :)
Nice
Shame the library was burned down.. 🙄
I just tried it lol
iv watched this video of a scientist on youtuber that had mark in it the next video to watch was marks video and so on wait... this guy was in NASA then made a youtube video that went viral and later on he left NASA to become a full time youtuber... AWESOME
Living my life dream, -NASA
The camera doesn't show the slides often enough.
It's kinda distracting.
2:15
Mark Then - 190k way more than we expected
Mark Now - “Rookie Numbers”
he is a really good speaker
No shit derek
OK
He's a really good human
But he is not speaking to the mic I’m sorry I had to
But the setup is bad, sadly.
When I find myself clicking the Like button and the first ad didn’t even finish, and that’s how I like Mark Rober. My favorite CZcamsr of all time. The only youtuber I let my kids watch.
My class did the marshmallow challenge in 7th grade, and in my team, we strapped the marshmallow onto the ceiling, and we won..... Lol
How
Now this is actually genius
You didn't touch it, and it's still basically on the top so wow.
Even I thought about this idea the first time!!
When I got to do it they mesured the botom of the tower to the top which made me sad... but this makes me realize that i could have made a spageti noodle and marshmallow taped to celing with a string attatched and dangle the string with another spaghetti at the bottom
The harder you work, the luckier you get, the happier you become. So hard work = happiness.
When are we getting that microwave?
I looked it up and found out he abandoned the patent. So, never!
P. Doetsch weird! Did you ever find out why?
@@JamieJosef Not specifically. If you have ever followed a patent through the approval process it requires patience and patent laywers which cost you money and cost you time. He could have decided he wasn't interested in investing more time and money in the project if he didn't think it would sell but I'm just speculating.
@@p.doetsch6209 noooo, I'd actually buy it lmao
@Vatsal Chawla new microwaves are purchased everyday...
Mark: you are my greatest inspiration ever, you have inspired my love of science. Thank you for everything.
Very interesting speech! At the end what I take away from this video is: "always be positive in the path to your goals". Thank you! Stay safe!
2015 mark would have a heart attack if he could see how much the channel has grown
yeah and he just got a new logo
You are such a boss!
Just a good guy trying to be a help to the society!
Great talk and great subject. Opened my eyes a bit since i am very unappreciated at work for all the work i put in and the creativity i show in the kitchen and still being on a lower position then some others who are good with the superior but have literally zero creativity or imagination. I am glad i am so naturally curious about everything unlike many people i met. This video gave me such a great motivation and morale boost so thanks for that.
Who clicked on this bc they’re a Mark Rober fan?
I did
I did cuz i CANT THINK OF VIDEO IDEAS
Me!
The camera doesn't show the slides often enough.
It's kinda distracting.
mark roper is so smart! he should be an inspiration to all!
Robert Moritz no he's not.
PotatoMC He's not smart? He used to work in Nasa, Contributed to JPL's curiosity rover.
Rober*
ThunderCandy don’t worry he just has the mind of a potato
@@PotatoMC1 Exactly, who is Mark Roper. I only know Mark Rober.
Thank you TED-X for invited wonderful people to have their speeches
Yessssss new person to watch and learn from.
eeeeeeeee :D
You and me both!
I love your channel btw
I just binge-watched all his videos. Have you found other interesting people like him? Please share their channels.
@@parukhsharma2420 michael reeves is pretty cool
I love this. And the presentation is as creative as the subject matter. Practice what you preach
The snake - turtle experiment was really fun to watch like how crazy did people react in it. That guy literally put the rubber snake in his car... maybe he was assuming someone to come and say "hey, that's mine" similar to what happened when we as kids, broke up things and then just flew away.
So, he was like "I'm not giving it back until you come and start pleading"
Very well done. Perseverance seems to be the key.
Just by watching this I was able to come up with so many ideas. What a great lesson
this dude is solid - at one point though he sounds like the surfer-dude on tosh "pitted... so pitted" - but either way - this dude crushes and has a talented mind
Ive been watching this guy for like a couple of months, but he has always ben my hero. Great video
Great talk n very inspiring. Thank you, bless you. All your dreams come true.
I LOVE THAT GUY!!!!!
Thomas Edison came up with 10.000 light bulbs before he stole the Tesla's bulb that actually worked
This comment deserves more credit 😂😂😂
Actually Humphrey Davy + Joseph Swan won a patent lawsuit against Edison for the working electric light.
That says ten not ten thousand.
@@cameronchain2745 oh sorry mate, I didn't know they use periods in the mainland.
Thomas Edison was not the original inventor of the light bulb. He merely improved it.
I had a teacher outright say to me "you're not a creative person."
Every time I sit down to write for pay, it's a middle finger flipped at that teacher.
What’s wrong with an older idea if it is still applicable and people are generally happy with it? How many were complaining about the lack of Internet before 1990? I sure wasn’t. I miss my pre-internet brain and have become thoroughly dependent on the internet now for just about everything. Progress always hurts and helps at the same time. Rober is a unique character. He’s found a way to tap into his creativity and share it with the world and profit from it. He’s not the only YTuber doing this but is by far one of its most financially successful. I’m glad he’s now inspiring children with STEM content and I hope a few engineers are indeed born out of their experience learning from Mark. But society as a whole can’t work with millions of people spending their time being creative and failing multiple times before they finally arrive at the creation of their dreams. Society would literally fall apart. We need people to do jobs that are repetitive and actually work by providing a service that helps people with their problems. Rober is extremely lucky that he can earn a living based on creative failing.
Really good example with the coin flip
This was very good and unexpected, thank you
Wow, what a clever guy! And so likable.
I love marks channel , i subscribed years ago and now im addicted to watching ted talks...wish me luck
Now it is 4.5 million subscribers

The funny aspects are that all of our parents told this to us. Try, always ask, be curious, if you want to achieve something you can. But you have to keep on trying
Learn from your failures. We always thought:" yes keep on talking" and now there is this guy and tells us exactly the same with a power point and a smile on the face. And we all think. " Oh wow! He is a genious. Yes I will do it exaxtly like he tells us. "
At this point I want to excuse me to my parents not being able to follow their advices.
Because it's easy to focus more on your failures, give in to envy, and take the easy road to save yourself from the pain
*Excellent information, Be creative and think outside the Box🎯*
Wow! Love this! Thank you for sharing your insight into this topic :)
10:39
It was good right? and that was, like, a SUCKcess XDXD
"We're up all night to get lucky"
Somebody contact Pharrell lol

You're gifted and hard working
Mark is quite dorky. But I love his channel. He's incredibly smart, creative, and stuffs.
My problem Isn't ideas. Its fufiling them

Good content, I really like Mark Rober, it's a shame the PowerPoint screenshots weren't all shown on this video.
Mark Rober took creativity to another level 🤩🤩🤩
Lets Go marks the best!
5 years ago and I still haven't seen the heat sensor microwave anywhere 😭
Fight on Mark!
Bro no way. Wait a few years. You will see my name everywhere. You gave me a groundbreaking idea 6 minutes in the vid 🗣💯
This talk was my favorite. Your doing great rober
I invented the HyperDisc it uses the smallest wavelengths and has a 3d design with crevices.
Can you elaborate a bit more pls
@@itzme.7389 It is like a 3d disc. a normal one is 2d. It would look like 2 more discs vertically joined into it. A Blu-ray disc uses b.lue lasers. it would use multiple ultraviolet lasers to store more data on it
I love his youtube channel. I am just curious about the man behind the camera... Was he to some extend blind?
Hello someone that got this in your recommendations at 2 a.m and getting weirdly motivated.
It's an amazing presentation Mr.Mark Rober
I discovered I liked pizza and now I'm a pro pizza eater
You do what you do best. Dont let anyone stop you, you can be the best!
"Go and fail and learn" -Mark Rober, 2015
Being consistent with the process, learn from failure and don't always question the results
what a bless to meet you on CZcams...
As a kid Its easy for me to make ideas but it's impossible to execute them
But how you fight imposter syndrome? How do you recognize that your ideas are good, and you’re not just thinking so because “you’re full of yourself”? I struggle with this.
Read The Gifts of Imperfection
Now this is a TED Talk that everybody should watch.
It helps to know people too. Good ideas made in the vacuum of space mean nothing to nobody. But an OK idea that is receptive to some people you know, and they support you, it could take off and be successful. Social Proof is everything.
Mark Rober !??!? why is this is my recommendation so late 2 years after!??!
Try 4 years after

The average student in the American school system loses about 90 percent of creativity and curiosity by the time they graduate high school.
That America India’s better than that

@@cheeseman7493india is not better. Don’t they force u to memorize useless stuff
Some of his reaserch was about getting lucky and that reminded me of this podcast i listen to called how i built this with guy raz and the thing that is so interesting is that no matter how hard or long or short the struggle was for them the people he interviewed always cameout at the end with something they could have never imagined would be possible. Like how mark rober was amazed at how many subscribers he had then but he kept on working hard and now has over 13million subscribers . Much support for him and others
Everyone liked that.
I came up with the idea of making a horse a unicorn in french class
Mark Rober is a creative genius
What's the name of the book that he did mention at the end of the speech? I tried to Google it but I couldn't find it
Good to Great written by Jim Collins and his team of researchers from Stanford where Jim was a professor. Awesome book.
Mark rober: doing a presentation
Five years later mark rover: doing a live stream “This is terrifying”
Me:” Wow!😐🙄
Mark Rober is awsome and an insperation he de best
1st step:
have money
Step zero: work
So we are more likely to have our genius come out at night... I'm up all night to get lucky!
Excellent video well said
This is off the hook 🪝! Awesome ✨️
"Disclaimer: I am not claiming to be some amazing creative genius"
You're joking right?
