I’m compelled to share this and I’m not sure why.
It’s a video of Stephen Petranek’s TED Talks speech on the 10 ways the world could end.
It’s scary.
But at the same time, I don’t think I can ever be reminded too much of the grand scheme of things. Maybe it’s the journalist in me, but I want to know this stuff. And in a strange way, I felt relieved having seen it–it’s hard to get too stressed or upset about the daily things when you remember Earth missed massive destruction by a mere six hours in 1989.
If you watch it, it’s one of those videos I promise you’ll tell your friends about.
