- As we've evolved, the human stress response has saved our lives. Today, we turn on the same life-saving physical reaction to cope with intense, ongoing stressors - and we can't seem to turn it off. Robert Sapolsky, Professor of Neurology and Neurological Sciences at Stanford University, reveals just how dangerous prolonged exposure to stress can be in the documentary, "Stress: Portrait of a Killer."

I just watched this entire program on PBS on Wednesday night. It is absolutely outstanding. Stanford, you should put every minute of this program online for free viewing... as a public service.
Sapolsky's a superb lecturer. I'd heartily recommend his Teaching Company lectures on 'Biology and Human Behaviour' to anyone who enjoyed this clip. Fascinating.
I love this man... Logic is a godly gift.
Thank you Coursera.
He has a wonderful expanded version of this in the Great Courses. I learned so much.
Very interesting. I recommend full documentary. Thanks coursera.
Thank you Coursera. Very enlightening video, once again.
Sapolsky is the best..thanks for your effort in understanding our human behavior..
I'm currently reading "a primate's memoir". Sapolsky is also an amazing storyteller.
I'm your fan Doctor Sapolsky
A storm woke me up at 3am, switched on the TV and this PBS program got me hooked until 4am. This professor rocks, so thankful people like him exsist. Amazing show I couldn't stop talking about it the next day, now here I am looking it up :)
thanks , good to be reminded.
Thank you Cousera wonderful information and loved that the video was shot in my country Kenya.
Thanks you Cousera! Very interesting.
Thank you, Coursera.
Each of us as human being participates and is active in the development and increased bad stress. We allow and when there is voluntary or not permission stress becomes a harmful weapon to our body, our family, our work and we become bad people, not bad for indole coexistence and experiences.
Thank you Coursera. (Inspired Leadership)
thx Coursera ! :) so true ...
Nice introduction on why one should have a personal interest in trying to understand the mechanics of his own brain at least a bit.
Thx for the upload.
Very interesting. This makes me want to study human pyschology.
Thank you Coursera. (Inspired Leadership)
Very interesting video, takes a very direct look at stress. Must be a fascinating course.
Great video. We love the animals of the Mara!!!
Amazing!
What a great Documentary. It is streaming on Netfilx if anyone has not seen the full episode. I'm definitely interested in reading some of his books.
I woke up with this on and I caught the last 15 minutes of it. It was very fascinating, especially since I got a degree in psychology and my mom is one of those mothers with a disabled child, my brother. I was wondering when it would be on again?
very insightful! thanks for the sharing Coursera ;-)
Great Video _- thanks for sending me here Coursera!
Well, it's been 3 years & you got 43 thumbs up...I hope you found it. I found it...it's on another site but oh well, I know it. It's a great episode. At first I was looking for the same title as in the TH-cam video here but then I realized at the end of the video that it's part of the National Geographic series so that made it super easy to find.
Great video! "The stress response becomes more stressful than the stress itself!"
Often feeling the result of stress in my heart rate, blood pressure, sleeplessness...I never imagined we humans provoke the same stress levels in our daily lives that a mammal releases in a moment of potential life survival.
I'm happy for you. I'll be honest, stress is not something that I think about but I obsessively watch educational programming online anywhere I can find it and I cover every subject matter possible so that's how I ended up here. I doubt I'll be researching this more but you seem to be into it. I normally don't give out the info but if you still didn't watch it and you would like a link to the website that I use to watch these videos then send me a private message & I'll give it to you.
I wish they could put the whole documentary online. Also the medical community needs to catch up with these findings.
That too, but my own personal experience with cardiologists this past year is that they haven't heard of this.
aaah i understand stress a little better now. would like to know more details though.
wow! nice video. thanks. :D
Thanks also to Coursera that make me discovering this video (Inspiring Leadership). Ressources on Stress: Portrait of a Killer Website: killerstress.stanford.edu/ also very helpful.
Thank you! That was very helpful indeed.

"Complex *"BRAIN SCIENCE"* "
As a neuroscience student this offended me.
A typewriter outdoor? :D
*there is a problem if he, or anyone, thinks this stressed filled, terror filled, endangered, threatened, threatening, tragedy filled, trauma filled, mega massive world should allow for the human being to exist in peace.*
The question is knowing how to manage stress, no stress is not the correct answer.
run like a zebra
Watch the whole documentary
I recommend it
Apple movies a good investment 👍
having so much hair would be stressful for me. clean cut and shave would do wonders for his disposition. but of course, he is not free to chose his style

I don't think it's nurturing that gets you higher ranking, somehow. It's competitiveness, and to a good extent it is driven by stress. Nurturing would tend to suppress any aggressive tendencies, since everything is supplied, Mentoring is something else again -- but mentoring is not a guarantee. Your mentor can drop you if you don't pan out -- nurturing is much closer to unconditional mom love, and I suspect that doesn't promote independent growth past a fairly young age.
Fuck...Now i'm stressed about being stressed!

For a moment I thought it was going to start a South Park chapter
WE ALL ONE: INSTITUTIONAL COMPLEX-PTSD - Is Your Home? School? Workplace? Government? Infrastructure, Health & Safety Services? Town? County? State? Country? Suffering from it? Are you sure? Institutions in affected regions and communities have evolved specialized business structures and bureaucratic methods as well as ways of administering law and justice - look for "in-between, buffer" organizations for example, between oversight structures and the Institutional-CPTSD exhibiting organizations and groups that fear and are desirous of going around governmental or moral law, thinking they must. Examples abound in said communities, for example - SRO's - School Resource Officers. Yup, I said it; If it walks like and quacks like a duck, I'm just say'in... Institutional CPTSD is the diagnosis, animals we are not, act on this we must, look into Sapolsky at Stanford and his baboon troop, and Institutionalized Complex Post-Traumatic Spectrum Disorder, OK? WE ALL ONE, ARE WE! b 1

I saw a study on why prisoners can get lean and muscular on a shitty diet. It's because prisoners have none of the testosterone-destroying stress. They don't have any responsibility; no rent, child support, deadlines, taxes, commutes, bills, etc. They live/eat/exercise on a strict schedule, set by the warden. The only stress they have is for survival. Humans have lots of responsibilities to prioritize, and that leads to stress, and that leads to low testosterone. If you wake, move, eat, work out, study, and sleep on a schedule, you have less stress. I gues discipline is the key to good health.

This is no time to ovulate.
smoking weed all day long sounds like the solution.
Hey don't stress out, soon there will be a stress vaccine. TIC
You're running for your life, this is no time to be ovulating.
LoL
evidently you cannot think in the abstract, can you?
