The amount of work that we put into this video is insane. I’m extremely proud about the team for pulling it off. It is amazing to work with a bunch of people that talented and dedicated.

You know, doing kurzgesagt videos has almost become normal to us. We don’t work late that often and things tend to go way more smoothly than in the past.



But sometimes we, as a group, just drop everything we were working on and focus on a single video. Until the video is done nothing else exists in the world. Nights and weekends stop being a thing. It is intense, exhausting and exciting. We hate it and we love it.


Videos like this one remind me why we are doing this youtube thing in the first place. Some videos feel like they are actually worth something and the voice off self doubt is quiet for a blissful moment.



Kurzgesagt is a grind. But it is the best job I can imagine.



Thank you for making this possible.-Philipp

Genetic Engineering Will Change Everything Forever - CRISPR

Designer babies, the end of diseases, genetically modified humans that never age. Outrageous things that used to be science fiction are suddenly becoming reality. The only thing we know for sure is that things will change irreversibly.

Incredible video, and I really mean that! But you need to start taking care of yourselves a bit more. It's a marathon, not a sprint. If you take steps to avoid burnout then you can keep doing this for longer.

Very nice video ! Impressive animation, sound, and information ! You could put link in Youtube Description to the Ted conference "How CRISPR lets us edit our DNA" by Jennifer Doudna because "Geneticist Jennifer Doudna co-invented a groundbreaking new technology for editing genes, called CRISPR-Cas9" <a href="http://www.ted.com/talks/jennifer_doudna_we_can_now_edit_our_dna_but_let_s_do_it_wisely" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.ted.com/talks/jennifer_doudna_we_can_now_edit_our_dna_but_let_s_do_it_wisely</a>

Great video, can't wait to see the second part.

Arkonor

Thanks to your videos I'm learning a lot. This technology was totally unknown to me, and surely I'll watch the video again to get a better grip of the concept. I hope that our contributions will allow you someday to hire more people to have a more comfortable amount of work on hou, instead of having to sacrifize so much. A wholeheartedly thank you

Is there a way to get an email every time a new video is released?

Great video! I really think that dividing it into parts/chapters really helps understanding the topic.

I've been investigating a little about CRISPR since you announce the thematic of the video. One of the most astonishing things I’ve found concerns the eradication of mosquito transmission diseases, which is indeed really impressive and it seems that not to “technically” far. The problem is that… is quite scary to modify the DNA of an entire specie at great scale without a coming back plan! In deed everything you’ve treated in your video is a little bit scary. There are interesting times ahead… Great job with the video! Already cannot wait for the second part!

I absolutely love this. I read what you wrote on July 12 and I just want to say that the quality of this video was amazing and extremely informative. Thank you for continuing to bring knowledge and acceptance into your videos but at the same time, also bringing the downside into the public eye as well. You just gained a new supporter (just made my account now).

At 2:50, is that a typo? 'Healty' rather than 'Healthy'?

So here's a question that nobody's probably asked- what's going to happen to deaf culture? when a parent is told their child is genetically predisposed to be deaf, of course theyll ot to change that. in my expericne online, many deaf people are content without hearing and have no desire to 'regain' this sense. I imagine a lot of them would view the option to genetcially 'cure' deafness as an affront on their culture, similar to the decline in deaf education in the 40s in favor of teaching them to 'read lips'. This doesnt just apply to deaf people, but autistics, gay people, and other marginalized groups. I'm not against genetic engineering, but I think this is something we have to think about
