Overall, this video is a must-watch for anyone interested in the science of plate tectonics and the forces that shape our planet.

This TEDEd video discusses five parasites and how they affect the host's brain.  The parasites it discusses are the Gordian Worm, Rabies Virus, Ophio-Cordyceps, Plasmodium, and Toxoplasma.  Each one of the parasites has a unique way of getting the host to help it reproduce.
