I love data visualization stuff and this video is a very cool way of looking at a LOT of data. 

I noticed a couple of things about this presentation that skewed the data a little bit.  Did you notice that the Y axis doesn’t start at zero?  Did you notice that the X axis is logarithmic while the Y axis is linear? The overall effect is to make wealth appear to have a greater impact on lifespan than it does. 

In spite of the skewing of the data, it’s still a very cool visualization!

Jonathan Coulton actually wrote a song about the Mandelbrot set…  really?  Who does that?!
