LIFE BEYOND 3: In Search of Giants. The Hunt for Intelligent Alien Life (4K)
Patreon: https://patreon.com/melodysheep Soundtrack: https://bit.ly/3rNtgPd | Who are the masters of the universe? Are we the only intelligent life, or is something else lurking out there? For 60 years now, we have probed the skies for signs of alien intelligence, longing for connection -- to no avail. But new ideas and technologies are beginning to change the game. Proudly presenting the third chapter in the Life Beyond trilogy: In Search of Giants. In this journey, we will see how far we’ve come in the search for intelligent life, how they might be communicating, just how advanced they might be, and what it would mean if we really did make contact. It might take thousands of years to make a discovery. But as long as the mystery endures, the search for giants will continue. It's in our blood to want to know. ------ Story, visual effects, music & Sound by melodysheep (John D. Boswell) Narrated by Will Crowley Soundtrack coming soon to all major music platforms.

You Don't Need to Follow That Instagram Model!
You Don't Need to Follow That Instagram Model!
From Brittney Dawns fitness scams to photoshop, eating disorders and 'online cults', explore the toxic side of social media and influencer culture. Have you noticed how social media has become dominated by so called influencers? Now there are many benefits to following these extremely popular figures, you get free advice, product recommendations and also get to feel part of a community all striving towards a similar goal. And in return for the value provided, they are rewarded lavishly, without the need for a single qualification. You have people giving advice which is not at all backed by science. Medical Science isn’t the only way to cure something. With great power comes great responsibility and a lot of these people are just not ready or prepared for such a thing. And the consequences are devastating... Note I am a fairly new creator who is still finding their own style this video was heavily inspired by: Jake Tran James Jani Lemmino Vox Vice The Social Dilemma As time progresses I will differentiate further and further :) Part 1: Unregulated Advice From the fitness programs to supplement recommendations, most of which is shared and promoted in mainstream fitness is mostly unregulated. This complete lack of regulation is why so many people are following misguided advice which is often extremely dangerous. And with the way in which social media works, this is only becoming more and more problematic as we have our cognitive heuristics exploited. Part 2: Instagram VS Reality Most of that which you are shown on social media is only exists in a hyper-reality. Trying to compare yourself with this illusion you are being shown can be extremely detrimental to your mental and physical health. Part 3: Fitness Cults The ideal image which the fitness industry projects is clear. And it can be truly enjoyable to aspire to reach these body standards. Unfortunately, these standards are only getting more and more extreme which creates a breeding ground for eating disorders, cult like diet groups, fitness groups and online communities. While being a member in some of these groups can be beneficial/ enjoyable, thanks to the previous mentioned problems, when being a member of these groups becomes part of your identity, you are susceptible to the traps which lie and wait. Final Message Maintain balance when it comes to health and fitness. Only follow science-based advice. Only compare yourself with yourself. "Have more than you show, say less than you know."
