Yellowstone: The Terror of Change
Channel: vlogbrothers
Date: 2015-09-11

In which Hank has some thoughts from Yellowstone National Park, one of the coolest and most dangerous places on Earth. 

In a weird way, this video is a response to John's about the refugee crisis. Anything that makes us confront that cliff of the unknowable that we exist upon every single second is scary, especially when I have known so much safety and security all of my life. But maybe the truly terrifying thing is, when faced with the reality that some people have fallen off that cliff...have lost everything, I often look to my own terror that the same thing could happen to me, rather than the hope that I can help rescue them from their fall, and whatever disturbance that brings to my (admittedly precious) stability is worth it.

Change is terrifying, but it is inevitable.
