Video Overview
Script: Imagine a world without coffee. Hard to picture, right? But long ago, coffee was just a mysterious red berry growing in Ethiopia. Legend has it, a goat herder named Kaldi noticed his goats dancing with energy after munching on these berries. Curious, he tried them himself and felt a surge of vitality. Word spread like wildfire. Monks used it to stay awake during prayers, and soon, traders carried it across oceans. By the 17th century, coffeehouses became the hub of social life and intellectual exchange. Today, billions start their day with this ancient brew, all thanks to one observant goat herder. Next time you sip your cup, remember the goats that danced first.
