holy hell that's so AWESOME. I mean there are a few parts where they had to cheat (assembly of the apoptosome) but that's kind of understandable on the grounds of the video would have taken forever otherwise =).

I think also, it's part of the reason why a lot of people who see the life of the cell video get this impression, "it's so miraculous, it had to be designed (by a creator)". this video really captures the messiness of the whole process.

Haha the only gripe I have is how the intro makes it seem like the etymological root of the word apoptosis is the word "pop".

That's the main reason I love that video, it shows the "messiness' and chaotic nature of the molecular processes involved: they're not intelligent, just stupid molecules colliding with each other until something sticks by accident.

Haha, they went overboard with all the popping. The one during the caspase sequence started to get a tad annoying.
