Je************:

If anyone was wondering, the "scientist" at 1:55 is Raymond Pearl, pioneering American biologist renowned for his studies of the aging process.

La***********:

Hear that?
0:22 - 0:24
That's nothing.
0:25 - 0:28
Which is what I, as a speaker
at today's conference,
0:28 - 0:30
have for you all.
0:30 - 0:32
I have nothing.
0:32 - 0:34
Nada.
0:34 - 0:35
Zip.
0:35 - 0:36
Zilch.
0:36 - 0:37
Zippo.
0:38 - 0:40
Nothing smart. Nothing inspirational.
0:40 - 0:44
Nothing even remotely researched at all.
0:44 - 0:47
I have absolutely
nothing to say whatsoever.
0:47 - 0:52
And yet, through my manner of speaking,
I will make it seem like I do.
0:53 - 0:56
Like what I am saying is brilliant.
0:56 - 1:02
And maybe, just maybe, you will feel
like you've learned something.
1:03 - 1:05
Now, I'm going to get started
with the opening.
1:05 - 1:07
I'm going to make
a lot of hand gestures.
1:07 - 1:10
I'm going to do this with my right hand,
I'm going to do this with my left.
1:10 - 1:12
I'm going to adjust my glasses.
1:12 - 1:14
And then I'm going to ask you all
a question.
1:14 - 1:18
By a show of hands, how many of you all
have been asked a question before?
1:18 - 1:18
(Laughter)
1:18 - 1:20
Okay, great, I'm seeing some hands.
1:20 - 1:22
And again, I have nothing here.
1:23 - 1:25
Now, I'm gonna react to that
1:25 - 1:28
and act like I'm telling you
a personal anecdote.
1:28 - 1:30
Something to break the tension.
1:30 - 1:33
Something to endear myself a little bit.
1:33 - 1:36
Something kind of embarrassing.
1:38 - 1:41
And you guys
are going to make an "aw" sound.
1:41 - 1:44
It's true. It really happened.
1:44 - 1:45
(Laughter)
1:45 - 1:48
And now I'm going to bring it
to a broader point.
1:48 - 1:50
I'm going to really beckon.
1:50 - 1:53
I'm going to make it intellectual.
1:53 - 1:55
I'm going to bring it to this man
right here.
1:55 - 2:00
Now, what this man did
was important, I'm sure.
2:00 - 2:01
(Laughter)
2:01 - 2:05
But I, for one,
have no idea who he is.
2:05 - 2:08
I simply googled image
the word "Scientist."
2:08 - 2:08
(Laughter)
2:08 - 2:12
And now you see, I'd like it to seem
like I'm making points,
2:12 - 2:13
building an argument,
2:13 - 2:17
inspiring you to change your life,
when in reality,
2:17 - 2:18
this is just
2:18 - 2:19
me...
2:19 - 2:20
buying...
2:20 - 2:21
time...

St*************:

1:35 I keep coming back to watch the genius double meaning of "It's true! It really happened!"

the crowd made the "aww" sound like he told the crowd to do. So that happened. And he is affirming that the "anecdote" he shared happened

Ja*******:

4:18 turns on interdimensional cable

Iw*****:

5:21 And what if I was? - - - Vsauce :)

E*:

5:26 "Life's a roller coaster."
This is very inspirational

Cr*********:

2:15 - That's NUMBERWANG!

Un******:

School: so your gonna have to make a speech in front of the class for 5 minutes



Me: 4:00

OH*******:

4:19 Me when I try to add big words to seem smarter

Da********:

This is the equivalent to adding random words to reach the word count.

Mi****:

you know what, honestly MOST ted talks ARE THIS.

Too many people use Ted Talks as a "intellectual" source for being an authority on something.

Ad*********:

"These are real numbers!"

Lol. True literally and mathematically

Mr********:

He literally summed up every TED talk ever.

Ma*******:

He’d make a great politician.

Le****************:

haha this is hilarious

cu*:

ted talks but does ted listen :(

Al************:

Huh! Ok, this guy knows what he's talking about!

Ta*******:

The art of saying absolutly nothing while sounding smart

Ja**********:

This describes literally every powerpoint I have ever given. I wish I was exaggerating.

Ro************:

Mom: why are you laughing?
Me: It's nothing

Ka******:

I felt like I learned something from this, But i didn't.

Da*******:

This is so unsatisfying, my heart is telling me, "you're learning something", my brain is saying, "what the heck, I'm learning nothing"

Na*********:

I'm Japanese and I showed this video to my friend who isn't good at English. He said with admiration ”wow I don't know what he says, but he is presenting something important to human beings” lol

Le****:

He is a god

At****:

"Notice how the majority far exceeds the minority"

La**********:

this actually kinda teaches you how to make a speech more interesting and intellectual without it being either

Pa***********:

The pacing of this talk, the vocal variety and intonations are impeccable. It's both completely meaningless and yet utterly brilliant- and hilarious!

Th***********:

This is almost harder than an actual talk

Sc******:

I feel so inspired now

Sp******************:

This guy just roasted every TED talk in existence THROUGH a TED talk of his own.
What a badass.

jo******:

I actually learned a lot from this. He used voice and pitch fluctuation to make the audience feel a certain way. He slowed down his words in the conclusion to show the viewers this speech is coming to an end. He showed the meat of his speech and what material would fall in there. He used perfect hand gestures to make each point and eye contact to help the audience feel engaged. Very educational Speech in my opinion.

Co**********:

Great talk, Will!

...now here's a comment that is both enlightening and supportive.

Fa********:

This man just summed up school in under 6 minutes.

mi************:

When you present a school project you never did.

Be*****:

The moral of this video:
* S Y N E R G Y *

Ab*************:

People say this guy is just trolling and doing a speech without content. But he's portraying most of people who do their bland speech in Ted talks and trying to be inspirational with no interesting content. He's so accurate that you can recognize every technique he used in other Ted talks

La********:

This guy has exactly the same mannerisms as Michael Stevens from "Vsauce".

Ho****:

turning off the speaker and watch this, I can see a literally genuine ted talk indeed, mindblowing :D

Ri*************:

A few lessons from this talk:

1) How important the non-verbal part of our communication is. Through simple tone, volume, speed and pauses you can convey meaning that together with logical sentences creates ideas. So you don't need say something in order to sound smart - the listener will interpret it as such.

2) TED Talks might be a bit gibberish or controversial or both, especially since this talk seems to have one of the lowest down-vote ratios

3) This was a great example of a meta-analysis of TED Talks and how one should structure an effective Ted Talk.

4) This is a great example of courage being demonstrated and exploited in terms of thinking outside the box.

5) This was a good example of how to do a comedic piece and of a type of meta-comedy.
