Hans Rosling's 200 Countries, 200 Years, 4 Minutes - The Joy of Stats - BBC Four
Economy | Information | History | Online | Facts | World | Global | Money
More about this programme: http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00wgq0l Hans Rosling's famous lectures combine enormous quantities of public data with a sport's commentator's style to reveal the story of the world's past, present and future development. Now he explores stats in a way he has never done before - using augmented reality animation. In this spectacular section of 'The Joy of Stats' he tells the story of the world in 200 countries over 200 years using 120,000 numbers - in just four minutes. Plotting life expectancy against income for every country since 1810, Hans shows how the world we live in is radically different from the world most of us imagine.

which country is the small green dot, rising enormously in income? and the orange one, bouncing up and down? and what happend when china made the enourmous age drop, before climbing up again? aroun 1959?

Thank you for this video explanation of "health and wealth". I understand it!

Looks like Sweden is going to sink to third world levels with all that massive immigration.
Swedes are into Moral Supremacism and think their good-will and ideas will save the world, but they will be destroyed by their moral hubris.
While western science and medicine can boost Africa somewhat, the fact is blacks are less intelligent and more aggressive, thus less fit for modern civilization.
As Sweden fills up with Africans, it will turn into Africa. -
You enlightened a lot of people because of this video. You showed us how the world can be populated with people learning different birth control methods. This video also taught me that if you have money and you have good access with medicines and medical assistance, you can live longer and you will have a higher chance of surviving from a disease. The video also showed us the revolution of different countries around the world and how their lifestyle and economy improved over the years. So for me this video is really helpful to people who wants to see how our world is going to look like in the future.

Hans Rosling made learning about the health and wealth of the countries interesting. I would live to see it updated for 2016. Can the world support 9 billion people demanding at the same rate as North Americans or Europeans? I think it's very important to also look at the problems that the world faces and I don't think the solution is the path we're on. I wonder what the little blue country was the drop really fast at 3:08 I wish he talk about it. But this is really enlightening to see what all the country heath and wealth at in 2009.

I worked with GapMinder recently for a class and the more recent statistics compared to the ones presented in this video, I think the UN and Hans Rosling’s predictions might be true. This is hoping we continue the way we are right now and the birth and death rates balance out over time.

Absolute legend! Making sure people see and hear facts too, instead of only headlines. We need people like this!

What a performance! What a magical demonstration of technical virtuosity! And, finally, what a triumph for the fantastic team behind this supremely elegant work! Please, please give us more! Ye are Gods in the making if you but knew!

Time for an update. It would be interesting to see what the Great Recession did. It would also be interesting to see if Obama Care had any impact. I would think it would have helped the poorer sectors of our population.

"It's fully possible that everybody can make it to the healthy, wealthy corner."
Is it Hans? That's the myth we're constantly being sold by free market globalists. Yet just this week the WWF reported that we are on track to lose two-thirds of wildlife populations by 2020. How exactly are we going to support an ever-growing global population with ever-increasing levels of consumption (that's what wealth is, after all) on a finite planet with a limited resource base? Please explain that to me with your dancing data joy of statistics. -
Hans Rosling should be taken with a pinch of salt. His stats are logical and very useful, but his interpretations are very dangerous!
