YouTube automatically puts up the image at exactly the half point of the video. Some directors don't plan for that.

its because youtube automatically takes whatever image is showing exactly halfway through the video. if you want a certain pcture to appear as your thumbnail just put that picture right in the middle of your video and ta-dah....its there!

The video was made 3 years ago, they were the best then and they will be again.

There's no comparing to the woman in this story, who clearly stands on her own merits. If any of us lost something so crucial at such an age, who's to say what the consequence would be. I guarantee not all would make it to 47. Some would opt for a lesser existence. For some people, death is a better alternative than life.It's amazing to see folks that revel in their moments against unimaginable misfortune, while others curse every second of their privilege. Pure amazing.

Life is never fair. It's too complicated and intricate to be fair. Sometimes it seems that there is only consequence. I'm sad for a girl that lost her eyesight at 13. Old enough to remember what was lost but too young to be able to find comfort in experience, and memories. It seems your sister has one thing. A caring sibling that I'd bet loves her. One that considers her a genius. One that empathizes deeply with her plight. Although, I wonder if she actually does lack a positive personality.

Because all youtube's thumbnails are located in the exact middle of the video clip, and he just happens to be in the frame in that second

cbs's channel is odd... most try to make a commercial gain... but some of this stuff isnt really commercial.
