The best stats you've ever seen | Hans Rosling

What software/data visualization tools he used to present these interactive visualizations? Tableau ? or ?? Could you list those if you know? Thanks in advance.
I'm here through coursera, i am so amazed of the presentation and how he explain. Imagine, its 17yrs ago. But the presentation is very unique.. No AI n that time.
Any advice on finding good data to watch. Please ., Please Please let me know.
I wonder what tool did he use to build the presentation. It is amazing even by today's standard, especially when he picked certain countries out of a bigger bubble, then he put them together into a new bubble. Also, then a two dimensional axes pulled upward. 🤯
One of the best presentations I have ever watched. Hats off Hans Rosling
This was refreshing - had to compare to a short 3 min video which I tuned out 10 sec. in but got wrapped up in this very charming man's engaging lesson on statistics!
this is the first time seeing a video uploaded 17 years ago 😭
17 YEARS AGO? WHAT, AM I CRAZY?
In india population explosion
Factfulness is such a great book
Rest in peace Mr. Rosling. We will see you soon.
The best Ted Talk I have ever heard in my life....way better than 'the metorite'
this video makes me want to get into statistics and data science
This is really amazing, I came to know about this valuable presentation while preparing Microsoft Data Analysis Certification, really great experience. ...RIP sir...!!
🎯 Key Takeaways for quick navigation:

00:50 Hans Rosling discovered that Swedish top students knew statistically significantly less about the world than chimpanzees, revealing preconceived ideas rather than ignorance.
03:03 Gapminder, a software, visually represents global data, such as fertility rate and life expectancy, challenging misconceptions about the world.
04:24 The world has seen significant positive changes, with many countries improving health and reducing family size, creating a new global landscape.
05:26 A comparison of the USA and Vietnam demonstrates how changes in family planning and healthcare can impact life expectancy and family size.
06:32 The world's income distribution challenges the concept of developing countries, showing a more nuanced and complex picture.
08:44 The world's economic growth, when viewed as GDP per capita, reveals a more equal distribution, with many countries moving towards the middle.
16:14 Gapminder aims to make publicly funded data more accessible and searchable, encouraging better use of information for informed decision-making.
19:23 The presentation concludes with a demonstration of how internet usage aligns with economic trends, emphasizing the importance of freely accessible and searchable data.

andito na naman ako para sa STI activity sa contemporary 😭
It's amazing. Which instruments does he use?
Whenever I feel anxiety, depressed and sad about the world, I watch his videos to get a glimmer of hope.
Just a statistics show.
I have no other experiences, but perhaps it was presented 17 years ago,
but the comments show that I haven't understood the main points of the presentation

Regarding the relationship between health and money,
More money means better health, which is intuitive.
All time favourite TedTalk. Read Hans’ book. It’ll blow your mind. Legend
