- www.ted.com You've never seen data presented like this. With the drama and urgency of a sportscaster, statistics guru Hans Rosling debunks myths about the so-called "developing world."
TEDTalks is a daily video podcast of the best talks and performances from the TED Conference, where the world's leading thinkers and doers are invited to give the talk of their lives in 18 minutes -- including speakers such as Jill Bolte Taylor, Sir Ken Robinson, Hans Rosling, Al Gore and Arthur Benjamin. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, and Design, and TEDTalks cover these topics as well as science, business, politics and the arts. Watch the Top 10 TEDTalks on TED.com, at

Finally, an educational Ted talk, instead of someone spouting personal stories.
TEDx are generally MUCH worse than actual TED talks. I see a lot of TEDx lately, and yes they're terrible in comparison.
Where is the data showing how kidnap and rape of millions of black women and girls from the African continent to fuel European entrepreneurial greed goals affected Africa's family life, health, economic well being, national development etc? Where's the data showing how murder and enslavement of black males from the African continents similarly affected these nations?

Love 240p great for cheap internet...NO buffering lol
to be fair, it's a very old video, from 2007 when not many had big bandwidth.
@@Grumpy_old_Boot I remember I'd sometimes switch the video to 480p and wait a few minutes so I could get that premium quality on some videos lmao
@@WheatleyOS
Ah yeah .. back when CZcams would allow you to prebuffer an entire video before playing it.
Even then, most old low-end computers can handle 480p without any trouble, just let it pre-buffer for a bit, then watch until you run out of buffer.
Don't skimp out on quality ! 😁
Would be amazing to see new presentation of the data, to see what has change.

Gapminder tools
exactly, mybe flash lol
You need to get out more or something. There's nothing special about his animation. I could have done it myself way back in the 90s at least, if not earlier.
Freeda Peeple Only if you had a good tool. I know people who cannot go beyond a PowerPoint presentation to present anything.

Who's is here and is amaze in 2019/2020 and today by this 2007 presentation. Wow

This is an incredible presentation of data and statistics.

Data is data. I fail to see how it's insulting.
Nussbaum Cause a very important factor not considered by Rosling is how OECD countries exploited third world countries for free natural resources & cheap labour or even slavery. Data is data, but its all a matter of perspective!

@13:08 "You[r country] can move much faster if you are healthy first", I wish one day we'll all understand that...
I would suggest a more important criterion, education. Your country will move faster if people are better educated, particularly if the women are educated.
@richard mccann Fingers crossed you might get super powers.
@richard mccannwrong, there is a thing called dilution, look it up
I was briefly in the USSR in 1972, where someone quoted a stat, saying child mortality was lower than in the USA, and went on waxing lyrical on the USSR's free-for-all & superior health system. He was factually right.
20 years later, I was "back in the USSR", or rather, what was left of it (the CIS), another guy told me they used to have three months (3 months) to declare a birth to authorities (we have three days, yes *days* to do so in France). As a result, most infant mortality did not make it into stats. There you go.
Take-away: not lying does not mean telling the truth.
I'm saying that because the speech opens up with a child mortality comparison, without saying a word on the reliability of stat collection. You could say anything you want there.
Exactly! This is not even to speak of all the millions of unregistered people in countries like India, China, or Brazil...
Then again, having visited some of those countries, I am quite sure that these statistics hold some truth. However, the true division between third world and first world is now in other things than health, because most horrible infant diseases got eradicated by health organisations: income inequality, corruption, stability of political institutions, violence, etc.
I've heard this in regards to European stats, too. Some countries don't count an infant dying before one month of age as an actual infant. They don't count the death until after one month. Meanwhile, the US counts all deaths, from birth onwards in their stat. Naturally the one that leaves out the first and most dangerous month for newborns is going to have a lower child mortality.
INSTANT REPLAY
Another thing worth noting is that a lot of the countries that had shorter life expectancies and larger families at the beginning were all for the most part based on an agrarian system (farming). In a farming economy/society commonly 2+ generations lived together and parents had a lot of children so they had help on the farm. Then they started to industrialize, machines replaced humans and they moved to cities. They didn't need extra help/didn't have the means or space to support a big family.
Does anyone else miss the good old days when TED Talks posted videos like this that were actually worth watching?

Missed* big difference
I think the most interesting part was how far off people's perceptions were of health throughout the world. As he found, people would have been better off flipping a coin than using their knowledge and intuition. "It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so." - Mark Twain
In the middle of the video, I was thinking "How can I get those data?". He answered it at the end. :)
RIP Hans Rosling
Watching this in 2019...still love the way he presented it. Never knew that statistics could be this interesting
"the improvement of the world needs to be highly contextualized"
Bloody brilliant !
i think the most amazing part of this presentation are the slideshow animations

Its amazing that even if you show this type of data to some people they will still insist that humanity is about to fall into the abyss.
*****
I notice all of your arguments in here are empty of content. Demonstrate either how he does not understand the statistics or how the data itself is wrong
AtlanticZealot Maybe Alex is waiting for everyone respond in the form of a question.
It is a big mistake to believe that current trends simply have to continue. The increase in global well-being is due to an unsustainable exploitation of resources. As long as resources remain, things might continue to get better, but when they are all used up (and most of them will be used up by the end of this century), a large part of humanity (especially in Africa) will most likely fall into the abyss. There is no contradiction between such predictions and Rosling's data. This planet simply is not big enough to sustainably support the current 7 billion people, let alone the future 11 billion people.
Once I've heard of something like this...it was called The limits of growth.
You know what? Both you and them severely underestimate humanity. The estimated minable oil supplies, for example, have never been higher than today. During this century, we will propably start mining on asteroids, 3D printing everything from houses to cars which will severely decrease the waste we produce, and this way, we will adapt.
We were always at the brink of destruction...but standing anywhere farther from the edge would just be too expensive. For everyone. That's why people tend to do nothing. It it is not YET too late...and when the time will come to ring the warning bell, you won't be alone, because by that time, falling OFF the edge would be too expensive, so people will unite and change the direction...
In order for africa to become a developed continent it must industrialize and in order for it to industrialize it must effectively exploit its farmland. For some reason africans seem uninterested in farming or unable to do it.
Most incredible data visualization presentation I've ever seen!

"It is better to be healthy and wealthy than poor and sick."

@@twirlipofthemists3201 Depends on when you're, In the real first world countries the health sistem is already universal. While being wealthy will bring you a better experience in healthcare it won't affect much at the final result of how healthy you're.
At least once you take drugs out of the picture, since being unhealthy because of drugs like alcohol and tobacco is purely the fault of the druggie.
Do you even know what the term “Beta male” even means? Because chances are statistically overwhelming, you are one.
Excellent presentation. The only negative I could find, is when he said, "health, cannot be found at the grocery store." His presentation suggests that health equals long life and infant mortality rates. I would also like to see the data for chronic diseases, like Cancer, Diabetes, etc. as compared between the countries and income.

+sanch Sanchayan nope. The thing you're seeing is called "Descriptive Statistics". Not much of "big data algorithms going on"
sallyxl tang note my comment about the issue with this visualization.
6:20 . Hans' graph uses logarithmic (as opposed to linear) scale, thereby scrunching up the data points close together.
It does not matter as the highlight is the evolution of disparity over time
@ I agree, however most people won't make the difference anyway but ge tthe right message. But axis are labeled so for an informed citizen it is still fine
how can i use that program and data?
4:15 That was the most frustrating camera angle! Awesome and thought-provoking talk
Why is this in recomended in 2019?
because the truth is universal
Maybe because recomending a leftist saying Mao gave health to China (he killed 45 millions of people) is not a good idea
and becouse propaganda is flooding youtube nowedays. easy to see in talks like this. look at the graphs he's using, they are never linier so it gives a distorted vieuw of the data so he can give his own spin on it. As in its just a bunch of bullshit he's spewing

@krishnatheid Among mathematically sophisticated researchers, log scales are quite widely and correctly used. The slope has well defined and useful properties and the graph can be more meaningfully viewed for some scatter diagrams. So it is in fact the lack of mathematics that leads to your objections. The one good point you may be trying to make is that log scales make the distribution seem less severe.
sad that it only has a little over half a million views...this talk needs to go VIRAL!
Very good presentation and 'contextualizing' is a valuable idea. I learned a lot. Can confirm his observations after living and working in Asia and ME. Viet Nam is a fantastic success story! Go visit ASAP, it is a gem.
One thing to add. I did research in college on WHO and UN databases. They are suspect numbers.
Basically, the smaller and poorer countries can and do find ways to under-report and over-report data that
supports the political regime/supports funding. Over time, and with broad trends, we hope for contextual accuracy. Hans' point about more access to data is 100% on target. It's just 'grain of salt' time for leaders and decision makers. I think Hans used data he felt confident in.
Basically, you can ask,"Does each of these countries have a free press to question government information?" Maybe not. The U.S. has the most free press, don't we get fed baloney on occasion???
Without being a downer, can I say that Hans is very, very correct, but the truth is elusive?
Free press in America has been replaced by "paid for press." The news consuming public is not the customer, but rather, the product that is being sold to corporate sponsors. In this environment, the truth dies. I think it's actually worse than, say, the fake press of a North Korea.
I'm so glad TED Talks is on the internet to educate and inspire us. After all the bias and punditry we are subjected to on a daily basis, it's wonderful to hear something fascinating and backed up by sound research and solid facts.
Very cool presentation! absolutely worth watching and learning!
ok youtube algorithm why did you dish this out of the trash 12 years after uploading it
I thik the algorithm thought that it would make the west feel bad. Yet it is disproving myths, especially in how socialist planning fails.
I too would like to know... don't mind it tho.
don't you know? stats videos are all the rage now in 2019
its because the vast majority of users on youtube are interested in truth, unabashed, unadulterated. The real question you should be asking, is why did the algorithm push it INTO the trash for 12 years, when it's very clearly relevant and useful information. But to answer your question is no matter how much google games the algorithm, the sheer amount of people desiring truth is forcing the algorithm to comply despite the rigging.
bcuz it's good and the guy has a funny accent
health is wealth

Wow! An amazing presentation. So much easier to 'see' what is happening rather than to read ling lists of numbers.
Absolutely amazing. This should be in our education system.
8:00 What about inflation? From 1970 to 2000 the inflation of dollar is really close to the shift of the peak and the graph itself (around 5% i.e. 1$ in 1970 = 5$ in 2000)
What about exchange rates? A dollar in America doesn't get you the same amount of bread as it does in Venezuela. The poverty line differs from country to country. Even the big mac index would be a better alternative as it's not effected by exchange rates or inflation. (Though I know that not every country has a big mac index.)
That numbers is already inflation adjusted and PPP in the last graph means that numbers are extrapolated at purchasing power parity index. So these numbers are relatively accurate.
Steven Pinker seems to be echoing this same line of reasoning. Things are getting much better than most people realize.
Then why the mass migration? Professor Collier (UN) has an entirely different perspective.
@@harryflashman4542 Populations of people with relatively high median IQ tend to create wealth and social cooperation. Populations with lower median IQ tend to produce less wealth and practice much less social cooperation. There will always be a desire (and tendency) for people who come from the latter group to wish to immigrate from their homeland to that of the former group and ride the wave of prosperity that has been created.
@@endoalley680 I get it the other way around. There is a high negative correlation between cultural reproductive practices and prosperity.
Where I live I can get national statistical data on ethnicity, wealth, family size and age group.
It is evident that earlier and larger families are highly correlated with ethnicity and religious practices. Social attitude within the group either support early commencement of reproduction or deferment of reproduction until significantly later in life.
Some ethnicities and cultures start having children in their teens while others in their forties.
This has an enormous effect upon education, qualification and prosperity.
I think that lower birthrates are not a consequence of improving prosperity and that as nations become more developed that birthrates will decrease.
I think it is the other way around. That lower birthrates are dependent upon changing cultural makeup and this allows development and prosperity.
Simply, more money doesn't mean less children. Less children means more money.
Socio-economic data supports this. It is the poorer segment of a nations population which is having the largest proportion of children. Even though the nation is getting richer, wealth is becoming more concentrated in social classes which are being reproductively replaced by rapidly increasing poor populations.
The trend of lowering birthrates could easily be temporary as high reproduction populations replace low reproduction populations.
@@harryflashman4542 Higher IQ people tend to defer reproduction. K- Strategy parents have fewer children. But spend more time and money on them. They give their children more education opportunities. And the children have a higher probability of themselves reproducing in a K-Strategy manner and prospering later in life. R-Strategy tends to be practiced by lower IQ people. Where more offspring are created. And less is spent on each child. Less opportunity. Lower probability that any given offspring will live to prosper. It still tends to correlate prosperity to General Intelligence of the individual. And countries which have higher IQ populations tend to prosper.
thanks for the information. Is it possible to download the software? If yes, what is the link? Thanks again.
"You can move much faster if you're healthy first rather than wealthy first" Fascinating.
TED has really come a long way since the 70s.
Outraged at that second graph he showed about income in different regions!! He used a logarithmic scale on the x-axis, which is absolutely stupid, if he would have used a linear scale, it would become evident that, although the countries did move together, it's virtually negligible because of the logarithmic scale... don't believe everything given to you.
A lot of things in real life operate at a logarithmic/exponential rate and logarithmic scales in statistics aren't rare or useless. I'm not sure about this case but it seems ok to me.
The Pareto distribution almost guarantees a logarithmic scale.
@tupac , I think this is just good statistics, not necessarily anything nefarious. You use logs to highlight a trend... unless you are a newspaper ;-)
I think the problem is not the usage of the logarithmic scale per-se, but that he pretty much exploits the visual effect of logarithmic scale to prove his point. As in he says two peaks are close which are in fact separated by an order of magnitude.
Anyone know what program he is using?
whats the software he used to create the presentation? Its just another level.
Well sure its a very nice presentation and 10 years ago i would agree, but data, statistics and facts show a different picture today. Less and less people own the majority of money in the world. More and more people come out of poverty and that is good, but the gap between the poorest and the richest only keeps rising.
as long as the poor don't go lower, let the richest go super up. let them reach maximum potential. (entrepreneurs not politicians)

It's a proven fact. With better lifestyles and opportunities - in any era - people will have fewer numbers of children.
I still don't see western poeple immigrating to those Asian and African countries by the hordes. But the opposite is true. It's the quality of life and outlook on civilization that's the real gap.
500-100 years ago, you certainly would see western people migrating by the millions over the whole world. The World Wars and Cold War severely disrupted western migration (aka colonialism). Now that birth rates in the west are low and the populations of Asia and Africa are no longer low (and the Americas are well colonized), there is no longer demand or land supply for migration. Quality of life and cultural differences are irrelevant IF there is demand for migration, a lot of empty undeveloped land, and therefore government and big business support to sustain western mass migration and conquest of other continents.
I'm curious what the projected data in 8:26 compares to the actual data now.
Is there an update on these presentation?

Giulia Barbara Formica it's totally true. Humans are so pessimistic. We always underestimate ourselves. Before the Wright brothers made the first plane. People said it wasnt possible. Now we have nuclear power and have landed on the moon. Anything is possible. We all just have to work towards it and believe in it
4:15 to 5:00 very well may have been the most exciting 45 seconds of my life.
Best ted talk, so important for people to know this. The image the media is depicting is so skewed, leaving people thinking it's too late to make any change. It makes all the difference when we're making daily choices like sorting trash, buying environmentally conscious products and services.
