Salve for our times: every last one of us

Every Last One of Us Need a boost? This video is a good reminder of our humanity.
Okay, so there's beauty and joy in there, but also just as much violence, pain, death, sorrow. People getting beaten up, for example. I found it upsetting and turned it off. I guess that's the point and I simply wasn't in the right frame of mind, so I'll revisit it later, after my coffee.
Could we maybe add to the tags in some way that acknowledges the range of things this video confronts us with?

When it asked me for my age I just backed away, knowing it would contain something I wouldn't like.

Youtube asks for age?!
It certainly didn't for me.

That was great, thanks. Very partial to this kind of post-rock with video montages.
Was watching with Lil' Ubu and excitedly trying to keep up: That's that MLK guy you were asking about...Oooh, whirling dervishes, they're based in Konya...Kurt Cobain...fire ceremony at the Dasashwamedh Ghat in Benaras...base jumping...can't keep up!!!

The best and worst of humanity. Was hoping for an up, but instead found myself in tears over both.

Makes me want to get out of the house and mingle.

Not my idea of a boost. At all. Glad it was useful for some.
