th-cam.com/video/7d16CpWp-ok/w-d-xo.html This video gave me the chills. The most profound answer I’ve ever gotten to probably the most pondered upon question of meaning in this life .
"If one is cautious about persuing an unusual path, it may help you to remember that the cynics will be forgotten just as readily as your failures will be, too". Damn, this motivated me so much.
I just happened to find this at the exact point where he started saying it.... Coincidence? I think not. Also, props for getting the quote exact, word for word.
if any u-tubber is remarkable - ex-urb1a is .. and electroboom! jan-gustafsson too .. also the freaks from numberphile - etc&co .. but now too sømethink complîtly -diff- remarkäblO0o.
no actually everyone will remember your failures. Theyll point them out when if you become famous so they can feel better about themselves like we do, humanity doesn't change much from here
I am rewatching this every time I get depressed or before important attempts like a dream job interview, and it works just amazingly perfectly. It gives me that calm yet excited feeling to try and believe in myself. That's art, I don't know what kind of art it is, it's not a book, movie, music, or picture, it's... all of that combined! Probably we will name this type of art in the future because it needs to be remembered. Thank you, exurb1a, you did made something remarkable!!
Just aging the length depends on the constitution of your liver, the temperament of the bear, and the strength of nearby navies. Worth a gamble I’d say.
This is why I love exurb1a, if someone told me to follow my dreams it would sound incredibly cheesy and I wouldn't care, but the way he puts it into perspective and keeps it real, actually gives me hope.
Anyone can do something remarkable, if only they understand what remarkable things are. I chose the obsessive job of preventing cross-contamination. It may be a small job, but dang if the results speak for themselves. Anyway, wash your hands, often.... And give cats fishies.
I'm 32 and just came home from a tutorial in my Masters at uni. Professor told me that my Master thesis idea was probably a little 'too esoteric' and 'perhaps not workable'. Maybe he's right and I won't find a teacher at uni who is willing to help me write this thing, but goddamnit if I can't make a master thesis out of it I will do this research on my own and write this thing and publish it my fucking self. And if all else fails I'll turn it into a youtube video series just because. *NEVER TELL ME THE ODDS, IT CAN BE DONE!*
Hey thnx for inquiring you guys! Well I had to pick another topic for my masters thesis which I'm currently still working on for the next month or so. But after that I have decided that I'll just start my own youtube channel to talk about the topic that I was so interested in. I will give you a heads up here when the time comes!
And here I was, wondering where all the modern philosophers are. Hiding in plain sight, so much so that even they are are unaware of the influence they cast upon the world.

This fucking turtle gave me some fucking purpose in life. I found this magic turtle when I was 17 and had no idea what I wanted to do with my life. I was inspired and now i'm 19 studying engineering in college hoping to do something remarkable in life. This 30 year old turtle has succeeded at his purpose, I hope he keeps making videos for a while.
I'm 25 and it's given me hope to know that even though I am a quarter of the way through my expected life that I can still devote myself to doing something I am passionate in which is solving food scarcity and homelessness.
i found your channel through a subreddit on the egg theory. this is the first video i clicked on. it’s exactly what i’ve needed. the video brought me to tears. thank you
Every time I get depressed because i can't do fucking proper maths, I just come here and rewatch this vid which is basically the best fucking video of fucking youtube.
@play gray Hard times create strong people Strong people create better times Better times make lives easier Easier lives make weak people Weak people create hard times And the circle continues But it's the hard times and the hard work that push civilization forward
I’d argue you just watched “art” Someone wanted to give me a message or an idea to a larger person group, then inside their head, and they made this video. And YOU were *moved* by it. Isn’t that utterly a thing of beauty? I think we cannot measure? Etc. I had the same experience. 🥺😍😳❤️

if one is cautious about persueing an unusual path it may help to rembember that the synics will be forgotten just as readily as your faliures will be too. what a remarkable reminder, thanks.
A quote has more gravity if it comes from some acknowledged person, right? Wrong! Personally, have no respect to someone who was constantly in debt, had gambling issues and practically lived a life more sinful, than most of us.
If you're tempted to be "immortalized"; remembered by strangers for something you did, let me quell that desire for you with this simple statement. I sincerely appreciate my grandparents who are now gone and remember them fondly, while I can only know Isaac Newton as a name and a handful of factual accomplishments. Strangers will never remember you for you, just your name and what you did. The valuable stuff, the character and impression you leave on others, will eventually fade as they also do. For that sake, if you DO manage to accomplish anything significant, be sure to change your name by deed poll to something utterly ridiculous, so that future schoolkids will get a laugh out of it.
@Try Not To Avoid Nope. And neither will I. If we achieve anything spectacular, only our names and achievements will be remembered, but we as individuals will be forgotten. That's entirely my point.
But it is a good thing people want to be remembered like that..that is how remarkable people come into existence..well most of them are by accidents..but there are cases of this too..and its cos of these remarkable people we as a species are so far ahead in science,literature and so on...its a good thing dont make it sound bad...nothing wrong with striving for immortality..instead encourage people
@@guyontheinternet6034 I think that those remarkable people who achieved the greatest things worth remembering from their lifetimes appear to have been motivated by innate curiosity and a drive of values. The desire to be remembered is not the right motivation to produce good outcomes because it is a selfish one. The desire to see technology improved, to investigate and explore the unknown, and to help others is often what leads to a worthwhile remembrance in the long term; and yes, so much of it all by accident. Instead of striving for our own immortalities, we should be striving for these things instead.
"You know what really fucking gets me? We sent a human into outer space, beyond the Earth, for the first time in our history - and it wasn't a monarch, a banker, or an oil billionaire, it wasn't a Rothschild and it wasn't a Rockefeller - _it was the humble working-class son of a bricklayer and a milkmaid._ Our first cosmic representative was a socialist, and he was a worker. And even if everything goes to shit, if the hourglass runs out on climate change or nuclear warfare, if we never reach our full potential as a species - the story I will tell my grandkids, between munches of lizard kebabs in our solitary Himalayan cave, is that for one hour and forty-eight minutes, we were humans, _and we fucking won."_
"Act without expectation, make cool stuff just because.", made a great combo when combined with "In order to shit fire, one must first chew glass." Seriously, you're the best dude keep it up!
I think it’s also important to remember that we don’t need to do something “remarkable”. At least not in the sense of being in the history books or inventing some life changing technology. Remarkable isn’t just Charles Darwin or Albert Einstein. It’s the teacher who’s presence was a students safe place when their home wasn’t. The parent who works two jobs so they can provide for their kids and give them happy childhoods. The lady next door who brightens her neighbors day every time she brings them some vegetables from her garden. The friend who’s always been there to lend you their support and make you laugh until your stomach hurts. Think of all the people who are remarkable to you, who have made a difference in your life. Odds are the world won’t know their name. But why should that make their lives any less meaningful? Your life doesn’t have to be extravagant to be meaningful. We bring meaning to our lives, and to the lives of the people around us. We are just a tiny, microscopic speck in the massive, beautiful universe we were miraculously brought to life in. Live your life with meaning, whatever that may be.
No one's talking about how they're not feeling the usual existential crisis that comes after an exurb1a video? I will say, it was a pleasant surprise that i felt motivated and relieved, that someone could formulate and help me reflect on some thoughts of similar content, after watching the video. Thank you, i didn't know i needed this.
They gave me the lined paper, I wrote the other way, they gave me a 0. Now my parents are kicking me out of the house for failing all my finals and APs and they refuse to hear my "But philosophy turtle told me so" argument. Please advise
During my life, I've learned that there is only one thing that really matters. You might regret doing something, but you will even moreso regret *_not_* doing something.
I sometimes think about suicide. I'm not depressed at all, I actually have by far the best time of my life right now and I'm generally happy, but at the same time I believe it doesn't matter that much. I could be dead and I wouldn't miss anything, because it's impossible to miss anything when you're dead. What contributes to this mindset is that I'm actually not afraid of death unlike majority of people. Sometimes I think it's better if my molecules bound to other living cells like plants, fungi, insects and animals, because I don't believe that I'm more special than plants etc. Living is good for yourself and a few other people, but death is better for a lot more other lives. But I'm relatively sure that I won't kill myself, not because I will regret it, since regret is impossible when you're dead, but because I regret right now that I want to loose the chance of raising a family and maybe getting famous for something that helps our future generations. But I'm not more special than my cat at the end of the day.
Thank you space turtle, you have convinced me into picking up parkour and making music again and actually doing things I enjoy without having to explain myself to others
Nah g you gotta survive the viking test. It goes like this. Step 1: drop your baby on their head. Step 2: If they're a viking they get up and scream a war cry, if not try for another kid. My dad did this with me. My Swedish roots really shined. :)
Hey Exurb1A, I stumbled across this video maybe 5 years ago and I’ve probably watched it a hundred times. It’s inspired me to achieve all kinds of remarkable things and it’s always my go-to when I am doubting myself. Thanks for making the video and hope you are doing great!
I just turned 18 today, I'm very ambitious but was feeling very uncertain. This video came at the perfect moment. I'm logging off of TH-cam and I'm gonna go do something.
Yes me too, I just finished beating my meat after watching this video and instead of feeling ashamed with myself I’m feeling fucking great. Truly an eye opening experience.
@@ezradactyl if there's a conclusion from exurb1a's vids is that no one is a special snowflake because everyone feels special. depressed yet ? good. now that you know nothing is for certain you can make your own meaning and values and virtues, and hope that you changed the world

There's a lot of important things being said in this video, and I strongly feel that the phrase "she took a piratical sabbatical" is right up there amongst them. The reference to "illegitimi non carborundum" in the description also makes me feel that I'm in exactly the right place here. Great video, great channel, thank you for your work.
God damn dude you always give me those feels that accompany coming down off of a strong psychedelic dose, a lump in my throat, a feeling of infinite possibility, life is a big blank canvas and I can fill it with anything and it will still be beautiful... You're the bomb man, nuf said Thank you
@@cosmosparticle8043 Not live your life around the fact that you have them, instead try to fight/ignore it and make the best of life! I know its easier said than done, but its the only advice i can give you about it.
@@cosmosparticle8043 A lot of other people do not have your disorder, and you seem to be decent at communication despite them being around, so there is something you get to experience that they never will. Maybe explore what your situation is about and share it?
Thanks, this video has been suggested to me several times. But now that I have watched it fully, I realize: that's what I needed to hear all this time. Will live from now on; thanks again :))
I don't need to be remembered. I'm so unbelievably happy with my life already. I have my dream job building houses, I look forward to going to work everyday to do something I love and also get paid really well for. I have an awesome girlfriend who is a great mother to our 1 and a half year old little princess. Currently saving up for our own house. As long as my girls are happy and provided for my life will be complete. I don't need to be remembered or the best at something or invent the next best thing. I'm happy with my life, family and friends. But I will def encourage anyone who wants to go for their dreams or do something not considered normal. Everyone deserves to be happy and no one should put them down for doing something they love!

as a german, youtube translated the Title for to to "you will never do something out of the ordinary" that hit even deeper, since i expeded stuff like: Everthing we do and think of as out of the ordinary is sort of a theme park ride. Bunjeejumping, skydiving whatever, all of those things you can by from supplieres who do nothing but giving that expirience to people who then go on thinking they did something huge. but fuck of, its is, now turn of your computer and do something. And if that something just makes you remeber the day for a few months, it was worth it.
“Act without expectation” “do things just because” Wouldn’t believe 2 sentences simple as these could heal my years of depression about how i am not using my time efficent enough, just because it came from a philosopher i trust. You stopped tens of crisises i had and you did it again, thank you space turtle, thank you.
thank you ... I needed this today and I may or may not have teared up during the second half of the vid. Keep up your great work I don't know if you fully realise how much it means to young people like me struggeling with life.

A quote has more gravity if it comes from some acknowledged person, right? Wrong! Personally, have no respect to someone who was constantly in debt, had gambling issues and practically lived a life more sinful, than most of us.
If you're tempted to be "immortalized"; remembered by strangers for something you did, let me quell that desire for you with this simple statement.
I sincerely appreciate my grandparents who are now gone and remember them fondly, while I can only know Isaac Newton as a name and a handful of factual accomplishments.
Strangers will never remember you for you, just your name and what you did. The valuable stuff, the character and impression you leave on others, will eventually fade as they also do.
For that sake, if you DO manage to accomplish anything significant, be sure to change your name by deed poll to something utterly ridiculous, so that future schoolkids will get a laugh out of it.
@Try Not To Avoid Nope. And neither will I. If we achieve anything spectacular, only our names and achievements will be remembered, but we as individuals will be forgotten. That's entirely my point.
*So long, Gay Bowser*
Shit. I agree
But it is a good thing people want to be remembered like that..that is how remarkable people come into existence..well most of them are by accidents..but there are cases of this too..and its cos of these remarkable people we as a species are so far ahead in science,literature and so on...its a good thing dont make it sound bad...nothing wrong with striving for immortality..instead encourage people
@@guyontheinternet6034 I think that those remarkable people who achieved the greatest things worth remembering from their lifetimes appear to have been motivated by innate curiosity and a drive of values. The desire to be remembered is not the right motivation to produce good outcomes because it is a selfish one. The desire to see technology improved, to investigate and explore the unknown, and to help others is often what leads to a worthwhile remembrance in the long term; and yes, so much of it all by accident. Instead of striving for our own immortalities, we should be striving for these things instead.

"it was the first time we ever touched the heavens" that was powerful
"You know what really fucking gets me? We sent a human into outer space, beyond the Earth, for the first time in our history - and it wasn't a monarch, a banker, or an oil billionaire, it wasn't a Rothschild and it wasn't a Rockefeller - _it was the humble working-class son of a bricklayer and a milkmaid._
Our first cosmic representative was a socialist, and he was a worker. And even if everything goes to shit, if the hourglass runs out on climate change or nuclear warfare, if we never reach our full potential as a species - the story I will tell my grandkids, between munches of lizard kebabs in our solitary Himalayan cave, is that for one hour and forty-eight minutes, we were humans, _and we fucking won."_

I think it’s also important to remember that we don’t need to do something “remarkable”. At least not in the sense of being in the history books or inventing some life changing technology. Remarkable isn’t just
Charles Darwin or Albert Einstein. It’s the teacher who’s presence was a students safe place when their home wasn’t. The parent who works two jobs so they can provide for their kids and give them happy childhoods. The lady next door who brightens her neighbors day every time she brings them some vegetables from her garden. The friend who’s always been there to lend you their support and make you laugh until your stomach hurts. Think of all the people who are remarkable to you, who have made a difference in your life. Odds are the world won’t know their name. But why should that make their lives any less meaningful? Your life doesn’t have to be extravagant to be meaningful. We bring meaning to our lives, and to the lives of the people around us. We are just a tiny, microscopic speck in the massive, beautiful universe we were miraculously brought to life in. Live your life with meaning, whatever that may be.
No one's talking about how they're not feeling the usual existential crisis that comes after an exurb1a video?
I will say, it was a pleasant surprise that i felt motivated and relieved, that someone could formulate and help me reflect on some thoughts of similar content, after watching the video.
Thank you, i didn't know i needed this.

During my life, I've learned that there is only one thing that really matters.
You might regret doing something, but you will even moreso regret *_not_* doing something.
I sometimes think about suicide. I'm not depressed at all, I actually have by far the best time of my life right now and I'm generally happy, but at the same time I believe it doesn't matter that much. I could be dead and I wouldn't miss anything, because it's impossible to miss anything when you're dead. What contributes to this mindset is that I'm actually not afraid of death unlike majority of people. Sometimes I think it's better if my molecules bound to other living cells like plants, fungi, insects and animals, because I don't believe that I'm more special than plants etc. Living is good for yourself and a few other people, but death is better for a lot more other lives. But I'm relatively sure that I won't kill myself, not because I will regret it, since regret is impossible when you're dead, but because I regret right now that I want to loose the chance of raising a family and maybe getting famous for something that helps our future generations. But I'm not more special than my cat at the end of the day.
Gonna regret either way. The issue is that my life sucks. Thats it.

Hey Exurb1A, I stumbled across this video maybe 5 years ago and I’ve probably watched it a hundred times. It’s inspired me to achieve all kinds of remarkable things and it’s always my go-to when I am doubting myself. Thanks for making the video and hope you are doing great!
I just turned 18 today, I'm very ambitious but was feeling very uncertain. This video came at the perfect moment. I'm logging off of TH-cam and I'm gonna go do something.
Happy birthday bruv
Happy birtday, now sod of and be remarkeble.
Yes me too, I just finished beating my meat after watching this video and instead of feeling ashamed with myself I’m feeling fucking great. Truly an eye opening experience.

Wasn't that encouraged
Definitely my favourite channel on TH-cam.
And, also, love the way you use classical music in your videos and speak in a way that matches it.
Formula to exurb1a's videos:
2 spoons of existential dread
A pinch of hope
1 cup of sadness

@@ezradactyl if there's a conclusion from exurb1a's vids is that no one is a special snowflake because everyone feels special. depressed yet ? good. now that you know nothing is for certain you can make your own meaning and values and virtues, and hope that you changed the world
The unremarkable take meaninglessness as an end, a stop, a halt.
The remarkable take it as a beginning, a liberation.

I don't need to be remembered. I'm so unbelievably happy with my life already. I have my dream job building houses, I look forward to going to work everyday to do something I love and also get paid really well for. I have an awesome girlfriend who is a great mother to our 1 and a half year old little princess. Currently saving up for our own house. As long as my girls are happy and provided for my life will be complete. I don't need to be remembered or the best at something or invent the next best thing. I'm happy with my life, family and friends. But I will def encourage anyone who wants to go for their dreams or do something not considered normal. Everyone deserves to be happy and no one should put them down for doing something they love!

Second step: Do something so cool they beg you to be the Chancellor of the Academy.
