You are cells. Your muscles, organs, skin and hair. They are in your blood and in your bones.
Cells are biological robots. They don’t want anything, they don’t feel anything. They are never sad or happy. They just are, right here, right now. They are as conscious as a stone or a chair or a neutron star. Cells just follow their programming that has been evolving and changing for billions of years, molded by natural selection.
They are impossible machines and yet, here they are, driven entirely by the fundamental forces of the universe. The smallest unit of life, right at the border where physics becomes biology.
Sometimes, to get a truer understanding of how amazing something is, you need to hold your breath and dive in really deep. So, what are cells and how do they work?

I’m in a college biochemistry class and we had to memorize the structures for the amino acids, I loved how the little animated pictures for each amino acid actually resembled the real structure for each, fantastic job on the artwork for this one!!

[animus]

As a biologist I can only say that this video is a masterpiece! The animation work is done beautifully to show how complex "the language of life" really is.

[anacreon]

This channel overall deserves an award for science communication. The complex topics that get broken down in a way so that nearly anyone can understand the basics of said topic is an amazing feat.

[university]

I'm a simple-minded translator and teacher. I have never seen a message conveyed more succintly and a topic explained more thoroughly yet plainly than this. Now I have a vivid image of how my cells communicates. Great work, guys! Thank you.

[arthurcorbier]

looks like the art and animations reached yet another greater level, i cannot even understand just how much effort you guys put into this

[duminduudarabandara]

You guys won't believe how valuable these videos are for us. Just remember we are so really grateful for you guys.

"....but if you look inside of what you really are, you just discover almost indescribable complexity, a beautiful language of life"

This made me rethink things from a different perspective, thank you

[ArtificialGamingIntelligence]

Space and molecular biology, two of the most fascinating topics one can immerse himself into. Keep up the amazing work.

[anirudh_b]

I'm a molecular biologist and this video explains complex mechanisms in an amazingly simple manner! The artstyle is visually stunning and narration is brief and simple.

[tahu]

As a Microbiologist, this video is amazingly simplified with the essence untouched and with a clear understanding of how it works. Considering how extremly complex is this, it's an incredible work!

[raunelchico]

Am I the only person that cried a little bit because of how beautifully life was explained in this video?

[hyperfiz]

"What's your first language?"

*the language of life*

"What-"

[Cinne]

This video allowed me to confirm the accuracy of this channel's content. I've studied molecular oncology for 13 years and have a PhD in Human Biology and Genetics and can say that this channel is the way to communicate science to everyone. Biology is unbelievably complex, and more I deepen knowledge into specific molecular mechanisms, and more I discover how much we don't know about it. This makes me appreciating the depths of other fields, incentivizing learning over creating superficial opinions. The superficiality by which COVID vaccines have been misjudged by the people not in the field, reminded me the importance of education and to teach critical thinking in schools.

[ColinGrym]

If I was a high-school science teacher, I'd consider making my class preparation loading up Kurzgesagt videos and pressing play whenever possible. For years this channel has been expanding the art of making science thought-provoking, memorable and easily understood.

[farasapt]

I really needed this. Was feeling down and suicidal about personal issues, then stumble upon Film theory coma video and that sad story makes me appreciate life on a emotional sense, and this video helps me appreciate life on a technical and complex sense. Never thought about how billions of tiny robots are working endlessly to keep me alive. Can't let them down like that.

[jessie-htbc]

watching this as a biomedical sciences student adds a layer to it really.Awesome work to simplify something so incredibly complex that we still don't know all about it.

[Vish_]

As a normal person who breathes for living and not a biologist/doctor, this video is really very informative. Also i loved the animation.

[realbirb]

I am not exaggerating when I say this, I promise you. Kurzgesagt has changed how I view learning as a whole. When I was younger I couldn't care less about nature, space, biology, and anything that required learning. This was partially because of my ADHD. I found this youtube channel about a year or two ago and it has changed that entirely. Kurzgesagt sparked a certain curiosity towards the world I never really knew before. This may also be because I simply got older, but Kurzgesagt helped. I live life, space and the mystery of all of that as a whole. I mainly want to go to college for art stuff, but I am tempted to also dive into any kind of science. As stupid and overly ambitious as this sounds it's true. Kurzgesagt is an underrated, inspirational work of art. <333

I do not know much, but Kurzgesagt makes me incredibly eager to learn more.

[InoGamerz]

The animation is god tier but the music and sound effects are criminally underrated. Massive appreciation to all the team effort.
