200 countries, 200 years, all in 4 minutes

If you've seen Hans Rosling's TEDTalk presentation before, I think you'd agree with me that if his training weren't in health and demographics, his alternate career would have been as a sports announcer.

I don't know what he knows about sports, but the man knows how to make things entertaining and dramatic. And when he joins forces with the folks at the BBC to animate statistical data, great and beautiful things are bound to happen, as the following clip demonstrates.



I wonder if Rosling subscribes to The Onion's Demography Today Magazine :)
